Roof Insulation San Diego
Making your Home More Energy-efficient by Insulating your Roof
Heat rises and large amounts of energy escapes through the roof of many homes every year. However, this is a preventable problem. Simply insulating the roof of your property leads to a warmer attic during the colder months of the year. The opposite is true during warmer times of the year, when you want your attic to be cooler. Either way, insulating your roof has the potential to reduce your energy costs and make your home a much more comfortable place.
Preparing your Roof for New Insulation
When you decide to insulate your home’s roof there are certain tasks which need to be completed first. Water and moisture damages most types of insulation and it eventually needs to be replaced. To avoid this problem, it’s vital to seal the roof area of your home. Holes and gaps in the roof area should be filled. Any other potential causes of leaks and moisture should also be addressed at this stage.
