Attic Insulation
The attic of the home is one of the overlooked causes of HVAC issues, as it can be the site of major air leaks that can cause a home to be drafty or have uneven temperatures. By insulating the attic properly, you are helping your home’s HVAC system work at its proper capacity by ensuring that the system is not overcompensating for the poor insulation. Proper attic insulation in your home makes sure that the cold or warm air stays circulating inside your home.
How does attic insulation work?
When it is cold outside, warm air from the furnace will rise to the ceiling and pass through into the attic of your home. This air moves out thorugh the roof ventilation of your home. When it is warm outside, roofs will push hot air down through the ceiling and into living spaces causing HVAC systems to work very hard and run excessively. Insulation in your attic is a barrier that stops the flow of air thermal energy through ceilings each season.
