WHAT IS the R-VALUE?

It’s essential that the insulation in your attic is installed at the proper R-Value. Simply put, the R-Value is a mathematical measurement of your insulation’s ability to resist the transfer of heat. For example, a high R-value such as 55 shows that the insulation has a better ability to withstand the flow of temperature changes than a low R-value such as 15. In 2018, the recommended R-Value is  between R-50/60. If your home is over 25 years old and the insulation in your attic has never been updated, there is a high likelihood that your R-Value is low between 15 – 30. This is because insulation materials tend to settle and dissipate over time. As such, it is essential that you bring your insulation up to today’s’ standards by adding a top-up layer of blown in insulation.

WHY do you NEED TO REPLACE your OLD INSULATION?

There are many instances in which you need to remove and replace old insulation such as:

After pest removal

The insulation could be toxic especially if you’ve had pests living in your attic. Animal feces contain many pathogens that soak into the insulation and make it dangerous to inhale or handle.

Mold on insulation

Mold is toxic to inhale, and shouldn’t be handled without proper gear including proper gloves and a face mask.

Asbestos insulation

As asbestos has been recently proven to have cancer causing properties, it is imperative to replace old asbestos insulation with new safer insulation so it is healthier to inhale.

Leaking roof

It is dangerous to work or walk in an attic that has an unstable attic floor. If your roof is leaking, it could compromise the integrity of the attic floor and cause a hazard to install the insulation yourself. Our professionals are used to working in these environments and are better equipped to handle unforeseen circumstances.

WHY is ATTIC INSULATION IMPORTANT?

Proper insulation is essential for keeping your home comfortable and your energy bills low. Proper insulation also helps to prevent warm air from escaping through the ceiling and forming moisture, which in turn prevents mold growth. Proper insulation also helps to extend the life of furnaces and air conditioners. Since the home’s heating and cooling needs are reduced by proper insulation, your furnace or AC will run less to maintain comfortable temperatures, increasing efficiency of the unit.
