Attic Insulation

[roofsuckers]

Attic insulation is generally the most cost-effective of any energy efficiency upgrade made to a house, considering the potential cost savings that can be achieved on the monthly heating bills. Even if you already have insulation in your roof, you may still be losing heat if there is not enough insulation, if it is damaged or if it is not correctly installed. Typical insulation materials used are semi-rigid insulation boards as well as glass/mineral fiber. The insulation material you choose may depend on the depth of your joists or rafters. The optimum solution for your specific case should be discussed with the Contractor - ceiling insulation brisbane.

There are several ‘multifoil’ products on the market that may achieve impressive levels of insulation on their own. If you are considering using a multifoil insulation in conjunction with another insulation material, it is important to check any installation requirements with the supplier. Installing insulation properly is very important. Where insulation is installed between rafters, it is important that it is cut tight and is installed with no gaps. Any gaps between the insulation and the rafters will cause it to become ineffective, as heat loss will occur in these areas - home insulation brisbane.

It is vital that you look for high quality when choosing your insulation product. The effectiveness of insulating material is measured using a ‘U-value’. This measures how much heat is conducted through a material and how much heat passes through your home. Correctly installed insulation will have a low U-value, meaning that only small amounts of heat will pass through, thus keeping your home warmer for longer. There are many other products that can insulate effectively at ceiling level. Where your contractor suggest that one of these products is the best for you, have them explain in detail the benefits and standards associated with the product.  For more information, please visit our site https://roofsuckers.com.au/.
