Attic Insulation San Diego
A large percentage of energy is lost through a home’s attic space. However, if this part of your home is insulated properly, this simple measure has the potential to cut your energy bills, keep your home warmer in colder months and keep your home cooler in warmer months of the year. However, each home is different. This means the attic space in each home is also different. In order to insulate your attic properly you need to hire a company that specializes in this area of the building industry.
Types of Attic Insulation for Modern Homes

The most effective attic insulation solutions include spray foam insulation, blow-in insulation, fiberglass batts insulation and reflective or radiant barrier insulation. The insulation expert working with you will determine which solution is the best for your attic.
Benefits of Insulating your Attic
As heat is generated in each of your home’s rooms, it rises and enters the attic space of your home. If your attic is insulated properly, this heat is contained and remains inside your home. However, if there is no insulation, this heat escapes and becomes wasted energy. Heating your home costs money. Every time this heat escapes you are more or less wasting money on fuel that was intended to keep your home warm.
When it’s hot you want the opposite to happen. An attic can become extremely hot when it’s warm outside. However, an insulated attic keeps the temperature in the attic cool so it’s not affected by extreme heat.
