WHY YOU NEED ATTIC INSULATION
Attic insulation is a necessity when considering ways to keep your energy costs down during hot North Carolina summers or cold winters. Attic insulation will also keep your home more comfortable when you’re trying to beat the heat or stay warm. Here are three ways that attic insulation can help you help improve air conditioning and heat in your home.
1. MORE EFFICIENT HVAC
Insulation’s main purpose is to maintain the temperature in your home more easily. This means that the temperature stays consistent year round regardless of the temperature outside. Attic insulation will keep warm or cold air from seeping into your home, meaning that your HVAC system will feel more effective.
2. LOWER ENERGY COSTS
Increased HVAC efficiency means that your house will stay cooler or warmer for longer. This means your HVAC system doesn’t have to work as hard to keep your home at a comfortable temperature, which will decrease energy costs and put money in your pocket. To further decrease energy costs, consider energy-efficient windows, solar panels, efficient plumbing, or more effective insulation in other parts of your home.
3. IDENTIFY AIR LEAKS
Attic insulation will also help you identify parts of your attic that have leaks, since insulation should stay reasonably clean in your attic. If you notice areas where insulation is particularly dirty, then that means that air is entering that area from the outside. Patching up these leaks is important to increasing the effectiveness of your attic insulation.
