Insulation may not be the most beautiful home improvement, but it serves an important purpose—keeping heat out in the summer and cold air in during the winter. It also reduces the workload of your HVAC system, allowing it to operate more efficiently, saving you money on your energy bills throughout the year.

CEC Spray Foam is a popular choice, consisting of fine glass fibers rolled into thick sheets. It’s a great option for homeowners with standard joist spacing because it can be installed quickly. Additionally, fiberglass is eco-friendly and contains recycled materials—including sand and recycled glass.

Why Attic Insulation Matters: Insights from CEC Spray Foam

Loose-fill attic insulation is another quick-install method. The loose material—usually cellulose, rock wool, or fiberglass—is blown into the attic with a blowing machine. This insulation is a good choice for irregularly shaped spaces because it can fill all the cracks and crevices in your attic. This type of insulation can help limit outside temperatures and reduce noise.

Closed-cell spray foam is a more advanced attic insulation. It’s a two-part liquid that expands to fill every crack and gap. Closed-cell spray foam is moisture resistant and provides a higher R-value per inch than most other types of insulation. However, it requires professional installation because of its chemical handling and application.

Regardless of the attic insulation you choose, it’s essential that your professionals wear personal protective equipment. This includes gloves, a mask, and safety goggles during the insulation installation process. Your home should also be free of any furniture or other objects that could get in the way during the installation.
