Did you know that attics are the top culprits when it comes to heat loss in your home? Although many homes have fiberglass or another type of attic insulation, they still don’t protect you completely from the outside temperature – or from high energy bills. One cause for expensive power bills that many homeowners don’t consider is depleted R-value. As insulation ages, its ability to resist heat decreases along with its effectiveness. In addition, insulation that’s been subject to moisture or has compressed over time does not provide its labeled R-value. So, unless you’ve updated your building's attic insulation recently, you probably don’t have as much protection as you think you do.
