Is your home too hot in the summer and chilly in the winter? Are you tired of unpredictable and sky-high utility bills? The solution might not be a new HVAC system, but properly installed attic insulation.
At PSC, we transform your home into a haven of comfort and energy efficiency. Think of your attic insulation as the hat on your home—it's essential for regulating temperature. Our professional blown-in insulation services create a seamless thermal blanket that stops energy waste in its tracks, keeping your treated air inside where it belongs.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) emphasizes that proper attic insulation is a critical component of home energy efficiency, leading to significant savings on heating and cooling costs and increased comfort. The primary measure for insulation effectiveness is its R-value, which indicates its resistance to heat flow—the higher the R-value, the better the insulation's performance.
Recommended R-Values for Georgia
The DOE's recommendations for attic insulation are based on climate zones. Georgia falls primarily into Climate Zones 3 and 4.
For homes in Climate Zone 3, the DOE recommends an attic insulation level of R30 to R60 for an uninsulated attic and R25 to R38 if there are already a few inches of existing insulation.
For homes in Climate Zone 4, the recommendation increases to R38 to R60 for an uninsulated attic and R38 to R49 for a minimally insulated one.
Many sources, including ENERGY STAR (a program of the DOE), point to R38 as a common target for attics in this region. However, for optimal performance and long-term energy savings, insulating to a higher R-value within the recommended range can be beneficial.
Our Proven Process for Peak Performance:
Comprehensive Attic Analysis:
We begin with a thorough assessment of your current insulation's R-value, identifying air leaks, and evaluating ventilation to create a customized plan for your home.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, our trained technicians apply premium blown-in insulation to the optimal depth, ensuring a consistent, effective thermal barrier with no gaps.
