Benefits of Attic Installation for Your Home

Your attic is the largest source of heat loss in your home. Installing or re-installing the proper insulation in your attic, including the knee walls, offers many benefits, including:

  • Reduces wear and tear on HVAC systems
  • Lowers your monthly utility bills
  • Keeps your home cooler in summer
  • Protects against pest infestation
  • Controls air leakage
  • Helps improve indoor air quality
  • Helps control indoor humidity
  • Reduces noise pollution
  • Helps protect your roof
  • Protects against structural damage caused by moisture, mildew and mold
  • Increases home value

The Right Amount of Insulation for Your Home

R-value is a crucial part of insulation ā€” it’s an indicator of a material’s resistance to conductive heat flow. Generally the higher the R-value (thermal resistance), the greater the insulation’s effectiveness.

The R-value depends on the insulation’s material, thickness and density. A higher R-value generally means a more effective insulator; the highest R-value may not necessarily be right for you.

Homes in specific climates don’t need as much insulation as others.

For example, homes in Alaska don’t need to worry about insulating against extremely warm temperatures ā€” whereas the weather is very different in Florida. That’s why different regions of the U.S. have different recommended insulation levels.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the best insulation for an attic in Tampa?

Fiberglass insulation is well-suited for Tampa’s climate and will effectively protect against heat gain and heat loss. Radiant barrier insulation can be applied to the attic ceiling beneath the roofline. It’s cost-effective and offers enhanced thermal protection when combined with fiberglass insulation.

Do I need to remove existing insulation?

If the insulation is wet or damaged, it should be thoroughly removed. However, if the insulation is in good condition, adding new insulation on top of the old is perfectly acceptable.

How much insulation does my attic need?

Florida is in ENERGY STARĀ® Zone 2, and we recommend that uninsulated attics in Tampa, FL, have R-30 to R-60, and insulated attics should have R-25 to R-38.
