Blown-In Insulation

Did you know that checking your home’s insulation is one of the fastest and most cost effective ways to reduce energy bills? And that it is one of the most cost effective ways to make your home more comfortable year round is to add insulation to your attic?

Anyone living in Missouri knows just how much the weather can change. From steaming hot summers to ice-cold winters – and just about everything in between – the people of this area are nothing if not hardy. It is for precisely these reasons that a properly insulated home is a must!

With the economy in such an uncertain state, ensuring your home is properly insulated is more important than ever before. No one wants to spend more money on heating and cooling than is absolutely necessary.

Attic Insulation
Attic insulation helps increase a home’s thermal efficiency all year round. During the cold winter months, sufficient insulation in the attic – normally in the form of rolled fiberglass, batts or blown-in insulation – keeps the warm air from rising out of the home and into the cold attic area. Because heat naturally rises, it can be difficult to keep your home warm on a cold night, but having proper attic insulation can eliminate this problem. Attic insulation also increases your home’s ability to keep cool during the warm weather months, preventing the hot air that fills the attic space from leaking downward into the rest of the home.

For the best protection from frigid winters, attic blown-in insulation is your best bet. Unlike batts or rolls, blown-in insulation (fiberglass or cellulose) offers a seamless blanket of protection across your entire attic floor, preventing any of that cold air from making its way into the rest of your home.
