Why attic insulation matters
Poorly insulated attics are one of the leading causes of energy loss in homes. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that up to 40% of a home’s heat escapes through the attic. When insulation is inadequate, old, or improperly installed, it not only drives up utility bills but also compromises your comfort and the quality of the air inside your home.

Should you add insulation during a roofing project?
Absolutely. Timing is everything.
Combining attic insulation with a roofing project offers significant advantages that save you time, money, and energy.
Cost savings
Addressing both your roof and attic insulation simultaneously saves on labor costs and streamlines the installation process.
Less mess
Coordinating roofing and insulation crews minimizes disruption to your home and ensures a cleaner installation. In some cases, insulation can even be installed directly through your attic while the roof is off!
Speed & efficiency
Blown-in insulation is quick to install, often completed in just a few hours—especially when paired with a roofing project.
Maximized results
Your roof and attic function as a system. Insulation and ventilation installed together deliver optimal energy efficiency and performance.
The power of blown-in insulation
Blown-in insulation is a game-changer for homeowners, and here’s why.
Proper attic insulation maintains consistent indoor temperatures year-round and improves energy efficiency. It can eliminate cold drafts in the winter and overheated rooms in the summer. It reduces energy consumption and minimizes your home’s carbon footprint.
Topping off your attic’s insulation can dramatically enhance your home’s performance. And when combined with proper ventilation, it creates a healthier environment for your family.
Answers to your attic insulation questions
How does insulation improve energy efficiency?
Insulation reduces heat transfer, keeping your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), proper attic insulation can significantly lower energy bills.
Will adding insulation improve indoor air quality?
Yes! Blown-in insulation seals gaps that allow pollutants, allergens, and moisture to infiltrate your home. Paired with proper attic ventilation, insulation helps promote healthier air circulation.
How do I know if my attic needs more insulation?
If you haven’t topped off your insulation in the past 10 years, it’s likely below modern building codes. A professional inspection can confirm whether your insulation meets the DOE’s recommended R-value for your climate.
Is blown-in insulation eco-friendly?
Absolutely. Many blown-in products are made from recycled materials and are more environmentally friendly than traditional options.
Can insulation be added to an existing attic?
Yes, blown-in insulation is perfect for retrofits. It can be added over existing insulation, offering a quick, effective upgrade for your home’s efficiency and the planet.
