Central Florida Attic Insulation

Having the right amount of attic insulation in Central Florida is more important than you might think. Your utility expenses can go up if the air from your home’s heating and cooling system is getting out. It can also negatively affect your family’s comfort.

Nearly 90 percent of residences in the U.S. don’t have proper attic insulation. Adding the accurate level of insulation could save you up to 15% on your utility bills according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). If your home is older, advantages may be even bigger.

HOW MUCH ATTIC INSULATION DOES A HOUSE HAVE TO HAVE?

The DOE usually recommends 13-14 inches of attic insulation in Central Florida. Or a recommended amount that reaches an R-value of R-38. All insulation is measured with an R-value, which shows its acceptance of heat flow. As the R-value increases, so does its capacity to insulate and restrict the heat flow. Your home’s age is a big factor too. If you own a house that’s past 10 years old, there’s potential that your attic insulation could have settled, which might mean you should install more insulation.

Different Styles of Attic Insulation

There are four standard kinds of insulation you can install in your attic: 

  • Fiberglass insulation: This kind of insulation takes glass cullet and raw materials and combines them to form fibers that feel like wool. Fiberglass is moisture and fire resistant.
  • Wool insulation: While this has the same texture as fiberglass, it’s made from rock, blast furnace slag and raw materials. Wool is naturally fire retardant but may not be readily available.
  • Cellulose insulation: Using paper, paperboard, stock or wood to develop cellulose fibers, this form of insulation is treated with chemicals to reduce the possibility of fire. Cellulose has the advantage of having a high R-value and is usually a more economical option.
  • Spray foam insulation: This is a chemically based insulation that can be applied to the attic and wall cavities. Spray foam has many perks, such as the potential to create a more airtight home.
