How Attic Insulation from Lx5 Insulators Can Lower Your Energy Bills

Fiberglass batts are precut to fit most attic joists and rafters. They can be made from either natural or synthetic fibers, and come with or without a paper facing for easy installation. A good choice for most homes, especially if the attic is not easily accessible for other forms of insulation.

Loose-fill (sometimes called blown-in) insulation is made of loose particles of fiberglass, mineral wool or cellulose that are blown into the attic space. It is commonly installed with a special machine that can be rented at most hardware stores. It works best in attics with standard joist spacing, few obstacles to work around and sufficient headroom for maneuvering.

Spray foam insulation is more expensive than the other attic insulation options, but it also provides superior air sealing. It works well in attics with difficult-to-access areas, and can be used to seal gaps around attic vents, electrical penetrations and plumbing pipes.
