Why is attic insulation important?

Maintaining a comfortable temperature in your home throughout every season depends, in part, on quality insulation. Attic insulation can slow down heat transfer through the attic. The attic insulation Terminix offers is also toxic to certain pests and is intended to help prevent new infestations of affected pests where the insulation is applied. Here are a few more potential benefits of attic insulation:

  • Lower your energy costs
  • Seal cracks and openings in the ceiling
  • Reduce noise
  • Slow the spread of fire with flame-retardant properties

What’s the best insulation for attics?

There are a few different types of insulation used in attics. Since attics have tight spaces and some inaccessible areas, insulation that can be blown into place is often the most convenient option. The R-value (the resistance to heat flow) is also taken into consideration when choosing the right insulation for your attic. Here are  common attic insulation options:

  • Fiberglass: Made of very fine strands of recycled glass and can be blown into attics or cut to fit. 
  • Cellulose: Made out of recycled paper and treated with a fire-retardant chemical. It can be blown into place and has a higher R-value than fiberglass, making it more practical for homes located in colder climates.  

How attic insulation service works 

Terminix attic insulation services can range from optimizing your current insulation to installing brand-new insulation from scratch. Before installing the new insulation, we always start with a free inspection to ensure your attic is clear of pests, moisture, and other damage. Here’s what to expect:

Frequently Asked Questions About Termite Control

It depends on where you live and when your home was built. Due to the rising cost of energy, older homes may be considered under-insulated by today’s standards. Learn more about temperature zones and how they impact your insulation needs. We also offer a free inspection to evaluate your current insulation levels and determine whether you need to add more.  

Fiberglass and cellulose insulation are commonly used for attics. Terminix offers cellulose insulation for attics.

Since new insulation can be installed on top of the old materials, removing old insulation may not be necessary. During your free inspection, our experts can determine whether your old insulation needs to be removed before installing new cellulose insulation. If it is old, infested with pests, or has moisture damage, it may be necessary to remove the old insulation first, which should be done by a professional. 

The cost of our attic insulation service will depend on the size of your attic and how much insulation is required. Remember, the savings in energy costs can help balance out the initial investment of attic insulation.
