Homeowners in the Pflugerville area know how uncomfortable a house can become once that Texas heat hits. If you want your home to be more comfortable no matter the time of year, it’s important to make sure your attic is properly insulated.
When paired with air sealing, attic insulation will prevent the heat from seeping into your home during the summer and keep heat indoors on those chilly winter nights. At Hill Country Insulation, we offer professional attic insulation services to give you the greatest possible comfort and energy efficiency for your home in the greater Austin area.
Why Insulate Your Attic?
Out of all the areas you could insulate in your home, your attic has perhaps the greatest bearing on overall home comfort. A properly insulated attic will:
Slow heat transmission into and out of the attic
Make indoor temperatures more consistent
Reduce home heating and cooling loads
Reduce home energy consumption
Lower your heating and cooling bills
Extend the life of your HVAC equipment
Some types of insulation can even increase your house’s structural strength, improve fire resistance, or reduce noise levels.
Top Quality Materials for Your Attic
There are a variety of insulation materials available, and each one has unique applications. We work primarily with two insulation materials in attics: spray foam and fiberglass.
Spray foam
Spray foam provides both a thermal barrier and an air barrier, meaning it reduces heat transfer and eliminates air leakage into and out of the attic. Spray foam has the ability to conform to any space, and it is usually applied before installing an additional layer of fiberglass insulation.
Fiberglass
Fiberglass insulation is made up of extremely fine strands of glass and comes in batt and blown-in form. Fiberglass batts are often installed in attic cavities after spray foam is applied, while blown-in fiberglass is often applied to attic floors.
