Attic insulation in Elora, making the switch to energy efficiency

• Using the addition through subtraction model means removing a negative influence that creates a positive situation, and it is what you are doing when you retrofit your attic with new insulation. You are subtracting the high costs that energy use has become through conservation and the addition is many thousands of in savings that will be realized when you burn less energy.
• When installing new attic insulation, a certified professional is the best person to assume the work. A professional has been trained and educated in the all areas that require expertise and that is what will provide the benefits that a retrofit of your attic will bring.
• Two benefits that a professional retrofit of your attic comes from a warranty for shingles and the ability to deed upon sale of your home. When heat is released through your attic to the roof, your shingles pay the price for exposure to the heat that they weren’t built to withstand. That causes the shingles to fry and reduces their capacity to function as water movers and as the first-line of protection for home from the elements. When a professional installs your insulation it will be layered in a manner that prohibits heat loss and that is what causes the application of the warranty to come into force. When the warranty is valid for the shingles – it can be 50-years – it can be part of any real estate deal should you sell your home during the warranty period.
• There is a worldwide movement to stop climate change and governments everywhere are adopting policies and procedures to take action. In Ontario, the government is using the building code as a tool to mitigate the problem. For attic retrofits, they have placed a clause in the code that demands that any certified contractor install an R-20 density rating of insulation. It is a great start but other factors will have to be examined before you take the plunge. Our consultants can help you sort out your situation, details like a home’s size, the resident’s lifestyles and average temperature in the winter will need to be reviewed. In the event you feel that you may require more insulation than our expert recommends, the added cost will be returned in savings down the road and it is never a bad thing to use more insulation.

It takes a short time to vacuum out the attic before we can install the blown in, loose fill fiberglass insulation and depending on how large your attic it could three to four hours complete the entire project.
