Attic insulation is key for 
comfort in Minneapolis, MN

Attics in Minneapolis are often the most insufficiently insulated part of a home. When your attic is not properly insulated and ventilated, you can lose conditioned air quickly, making your home more difficult—and more expensive—to keep comfortable during our harsh winters and humid summers. In addition to letting heat escape during the frigid winter months, a poorly insulated attic is a major contributing factor in the formation of ice dams, icicles, and mold growth, which can be both a health and safety hazard for your family and your property.

The U.S. Department of Energy recommends homeowners have a certain depth of blown-in insulation in their attics. The amount recommended varies by climate zones. If your attic's insulation depth is below the recommended level, contact our home insulation experts.

What Is Blown-In Attic Insulation?

Blown-in attic insulation is a type of insulation that is installed by blowing loose, fibrous material into the attic space using specialized equipment. This method allows the insulation to fill in gaps and cover irregularly shaped areas more effectively than traditional batt insulation. Blown-in insulation is commonly made from materials such as fiberglass or cellulose.

The Attic Insulation 
Installation Process

So what can you expect? Review the steps below to see what you can expect from the installation experience.

Step 1

Before our insulation experts arrive, make sure you clear a pathway to the attic entrance.

Step 2

Once we access the attic, we examine the existing insulation type and depth to determine the best way to increase your home's energy efficiency.

Step 3

If there are baffles missing or incorrectly installed, we'll add them between every cavity that connects to the soffits. This will create a good ventilation system so the air can then pass over the insulation without disturbing it.

Step 4

Now that ventilation is established, we add our blown-in insulation until an optimal depth, or R-Value, is reached.
