Blown-In Attic Insulation
What is Blown-In Insulation
Blown-In Insulation, also known as loose-fill insulation, is made of small particles of fiberglass that are blown into your attic or wall cavities using special equipment. This method allows for even distribution and the ability to fill irregular spaces and hard to reach areas.
What are the Benefits of Blown-In?
- Improved Energy Efficiency: Blown-In Insulation helps seal air leaks and create an even thermal barrier throughout your attic or walls. This prevents cool air from escaping during hot summer months, lowering your cooling costs and increasing your home's overall energy efficiency.
- Temperature Control: Blown-In Insulation helps block the intense Florida heat from penetrating your attic and entering your home. This helps to keep the hot air out and the cool air in, creating more consistent indoor temperatures, so your home stays cooler longer.
- Humidity and Moisture Control: Florida's tropical climate can also bring high humidity, which may lead to moisture problems in the home. Blown-In Insulation helps regulate humidity levels by sealing off areas where moisture could otherwise accumulate. This helps to prevent the growth of mold and mildew, protects your home from's structure from moisture damage and maintains better indoor air quality for you and your family.
- Lower Energy Costs: The intense heat of Southwest Florida means your air conditioning system works overtime to keep your home cool. Blown-in insulation acts as a thermal barrier, preventing the hot outdoor air from infiltrating your home and keeping cool air inside. This results in up to 20% reduction in cooling costs and less strain on your HVAC system leading to fewer breakdowns and repairs.
- Quick Installation: The process of installing Blown-In Insulation is fast and efficient. In most cases, we can complete the installation within a day, allowing you to enjoy the benefits almost immediately.
- Fills Gaps and Hard to Reach Areas: Blown-In Insulation conforms to the unique layout of your attic, filling in gaps, cracks and irregular spaces that batted insulation often misses. This ensures complete coverage for maximum insulation performance.
- Soundproofing: Blown-In Insulation not only keeps your home energy efficient but also helps to reduce noise from outside. This is especially beneficial for homes in busy neighborhoods or near highways.
Signs You Need to Replace or Upgrade your Attic Insulation
- High Energy Bills: If you've noticed a sudden spike in your cooling costs, it could be due to poor insulation.
- Uneven Room Temperatures: If some rooms are consistently warmer or cooler than others, it may be a sign that your attic insulation isn't performing as it should.
- Old or Compressed Insulation: Insulation loses its effectiveness over time. If your home is more than 10-15 years old and hasn't had insulation upgraded, it may be time for a replacement.
- Water Damage or Mold: If your attic has suffered water damage from leaks or hurricanes, the insulation may need to be removed and replaced to prevent mold growth and ensure proper performance.
- Pest Infestations: Insulation that has been damaged by rodents or pests may no longer provide the necessary coverage and should be replaced.
