Our certified energy experts at Logan Home Energy Services always stress the importance of attic insulation, as this is one of the areas in your home where air tends to leak out most. Proper attic insulation may help reduce your heating and cooling costs by as much as 40%, and help lock in temperatures for improved comfort from season to season. There are a ton of reasons your attic insulation can wear down over time, from leaks in the ceiling to rats and mice that tear up your insulation and cover it with droppings. Either way, if your energy bills have been steadily rising lately, consider calling us for an inspection so we can take a look at your attic insulation ASAP.

You may be experiencing poor attic insulation if:

• Rooms located below the attic get too hot or too cold, even when other parts of the house remain comfortable.
• Attic floor joists can be seen above or between existing attic insulation.
• There are recessed “can” lights in the ceiling directly below the attic.
• The ductwork in your attic is exposed above the insulation.
• Your electric bills or HVAC costs are extremely high.
• You are experiencing a lot of cold drafts during the wintertime.
• You have less than 10 inches of existing attic insulation.
