Attic Insulation Mississauga

Attic insulation is very important because it saves you “heat” and heat is energy and energy is money.
Therefore attic insulation is a very effective means to bringing down your energy costs and bills. Every time your furnace turns on your using up fuel in the form of “natural gas” or “heating oil”. And after you have started burning the fuel creating heat you have to move the hot air around the house which in turn uses “electricity” to get the hot air to the various rooms.
All of this costs money (green) and lots of it. The more your furnace works or your air conditioners on the more money you spend.

Basically the laws of nature dictate that hot air will always rise over cold air. If you have cold air in your attic than the hot air from your room will try to go above the cold air. And this is the reason why you need attic insulation.

The most frequently used type of attic insulation is fiberglass batts, fiberglass bats are strips of fiberglass insulation usually the width of your roof joists and all round 3 or 4 inches thick and are colored in either pink or yellow. This is the easiest installation you can install yourself even. These fiberglass batts can come in various r– values.

Attic insulation that we recommend is cellulose attic insulation, this has some definite advantages over fiberglass batts. The only problem is that this requires special professional Mississauga attic insulation service to be able to blow this cellulose in to your attic. The nice thing about cellulose is that it is also “green” using only natural ingredients such as newspapers which are round and processed. This is a very environmentally friendly solution.
