While the attic is often a temporary home to boxes and doo-dads, you can make that space work for your house by insulating it. The best part is that this is an affordable project that’s relatively quick and easy to complete with the help of a professional installer.

There are several types of attic insulation – each with its own advantages and purposes. It’s important to choose a type that fits your needs and budget. The Department of Energy recommends a specific R-value for each region to ensure effective performance.

Blanket insulation, also called blanket or rolled insulation, uses sheets of fibers such as fiberglass, mineral wool or natural materials to limit the flow of cold and hot air. It’s popular with DIYers for its ease of installation and affordable price. Blown-in cellulose or fiberglass are other common choices for attic insulation.

Foam insulation, available in board and panel forms, offers high R-value and moisture resistance for new attics. It can be used with existing attic insulation or in place of it. Spray foam is an advanced option for attics with high moisture levels or pest control challenges.

If you’re considering an attic insulation upgrade, a professional can provide advice and recommendations for your particular home. They’ll also assess your current insulation to determine its R-value and compare it to the recommended R-value for your climate zone. They’ll use the results of this assessment to determine if your attic is properly insulated and what type of insulation you need.
