The attic is one of the most under-insulated areas in the home. It’s an “out of sight, out of mind” space that homeowners tend to ignore until something goes wrong. Upgrading attic insulation can reduce energy bills and improve comfort by keeping conditioned air in the home and cutting down on drafts and cold spots. It’s also an affordable home improvement that can yield great ROI.

The type of attic insulation you choose is crucial for your specific climate zone and building codes. Different products offer different R-values, which determine how much the insulation prevents heat from moving through it per inch. The Department of Energy recommends an R-value of at least R-30 for most homes, but colder regions may require higher R-values.

The Process of Attic Insulation with Georgia Insulation

Loose-fill attic insulation is usually made from fiberglass, cellulose or rock wool. It’s blown into place with a special machine, and is typically more expensive than spray foam or ice dam insulation.

For a tight seal that keeps warm air from seeping into your home, consider closed-cell spray foam insulation. It’s more expensive than other attic insulation options, but it’s an investment that will pay off with reduced energy costs for years to come.

If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option, Greenfiber cellulose insulation is made from up to 85% recycled paper fiber and treated for fire resistance. It also provides superior soundproofing and is easy to install with a blowing machine.
