The Right Attic Insulation Can Keep Your Roseville, MN, Home Comfortable
Most homeowners don’t pay much attention to their attic unless they find themselves faced with pests or water damage. However, it might be worth taking a second look at the attic insulation in your Roseville, Minnesota, home. A poorly insulated attic possesses the highest rate of thermal transfer in a home—around 40%—which can lead to uncomfortable indoor temperatures during stifling summers and frigid winters. Thankfully, Lindus Construction can help by performing thermal testing at your home and installing the best attic insulation to address your situation.
Identifying Your Insulation Troubles
We want to make sure that any attic insulation that we install will provide an effective thermal barrier for the inside of your home. That’s why we like to perform home performance testing before installing any insulation. Using a blower door, we will check your Roseville, MN, home for unsealed cracks that allow uncomfortable drafts to move through your house. An infrared imager allows us to view accurate surface temperatures and identify roof leaks, which helps us determine where to install your new attic insulation and which type of insulation will provide the most reliable and long-lasting protection.
Attic Insulation That Best Meets Your Needs
The types of attic insulation that we install each come with unique benefits that allow them to provide different types of protection. Based on the results of your home performance testing, one of our experts will likely recommend:
- Fiberglass insulation, which fits between attic beams to block outside air from entering your home
- Spray foam insulation, which will create an air-tight seal against thermal transfer while also resisting mold and mildew growth
- Blown-in cellulose insulation, which settles into hard-to-reach spaces to provide an eco-friendly barrier against outside temperatures and noise
