in South Elgin, IL

In South Elgin, attics are frequently the least insulated areas of a home. When your attic lacks proper insulation and ventilation, conditioned air can escape rapidly, making it challenging and more expensive to maintain a comfortable home during both winter and summer. Furthermore, inadequate attic insulation can contribute to the formation of ice dams, icicles, and mold growth in the colder months, which can be hazardous to your family's health and safety.

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.
