Attic insulation in Elmira, facts and figures

• Adding a thousand dollars or more to your yearly financial statement is a boon for anyone. But that is effectively what you are doing with the installation of new attic insulation in Elmira. The savings on your bills will add up quickly and over time it can become quite a nest egg to used other purposes.

A certified professional knows his way around any attic insulation installation and has demonstrated the institutional knowledge to obtain the certification that guarantees the effectiveness of the installation.
• Using a certified professional can provide benefits that are relatively obscure but carry a high value. When a professional installs the insulation, it will be spread evenly and thoroughly and cover all areas. The installation will prevent heat leakage from the home to the attic and through the decking to the shingles. This is important because shingles fry when they are exposed to high temperatures. A professional install will prevent the heat leakage that will damage the shingles and it will provide for suitable conditions for the shingle warranty to become active. Warranties are can be extended as long as 50-years and it can be part of the sale of any home provided it sold during the warranty period.
• We all have a part to play in reducing our fossil fuel usage and the provincial government has changed the building code to reflect a commitment stop climate change. They have changed the building code to set a minimum for attic insulation installed by a certified contractor. The new regulation requires a density rating of R-20, but the devil is always in the details. Things like geographic location that drive median temperatures, square footage of the attic, and how the inhabitants use energy are details to address. We can show you a formula for success and if you chose to top-up what we have recommended, the extra cost will be recovered in savings you will receive down the road.
• If you have no attic insulation in your attic, the installation can go full steam ahead, but if there is material in the attic, it needs to come out before we can start with the new installation. We use a vacuum system to remove the old insulation before we install the blown in, loose fill, fiberglass insulation that will provide the comfort an insulation installation provides.
