Lakeland Attic Insulation Installation Services
According to a study performed by NAIMA, almost 90% of existing homes are under insulated. And an under insulated home or poor attic insulation can cost a homeowner a lot of money and comfort. In Lakeland, the weather is almost unforgiving – you should know, you live there.
One of the most common point of insulation failure is in the attic. Proper attic insulation will help to keep the temperature inside from seeping outside (or the temperature outside from sneaking inside) – depending on the temperatures of the season.
But, improperly installed attic insulation will not perform as well as it should, costing you more in higher utility bills.
Why upgrade your home’s insulation?
Keeping your home comfortable shouldn’t be a compromise between the temperature and the price of your utility bill. As stated earlier, almost 90% of existing homes are under insulated, which means your home is probably one of them. Instead of accepting the higher temperatures in your home, versus a higher utility bill, you should have newer, more efficient insulation installed.
Insulation installation services can correct under insulation issues in your home. From poor attic insulation, to non-existent wall insulation, to radiant barriers and so on, you can correct what wasn’t done right the first time. The right insulation installation services can get your home back to being comfortable – both in the home and in the wallet.
What’s the best attic insulation?
We’ll get right to the point – spray foam is the most efficient attic insulation you can get for your home. It has the highest the R-value of all the insulation options available, while also being the most cost-effective too. Spray polyurethane foam (SPF) creates an airtight seal, while keeping the heat out and other elements such as pollen, dust, etc.
There are two types of spray foam that can be used in your attic. There is open-cell spray foam insulation and closed-cell spray foam insulation. Both are great at keeping your attic insulated from the outside weather. But, here is a quick breakdown of both:
Open-Cell Foam Insulation
- Very light
- Will expand; fill crevices
- Water permeable
- Provides soundproofing
Closed-Cell Foam Insulation
- Extremely dense
- Minimal expansion
- Impermeable to water
- Provides slight soundproofing
