Benefits Of Clean Attic For Your Federal Way Home
Keep Moisture Out Of Your Federal Way Attic
- Holes or cracks in an attic allow moisture and water to enter into the structure of your home. Mold and mildew thrive in the dim, warm conditions of the attic, crawl space, and wall cavities. The presence of mold and mildew drastically decrease the air quality of your home and causes decay to a home’s structure.
Save Money With Attic Insulation
Federal Way homes that lack proper insulation spend more money on their energy bills. Investing in attic insulation creates an average energy savings of 30% – 80% (depending upon the condition of old insulation), simply because the insulation enables their homes to be more energy efficient. Because of this, the insulation installation pays for itself within months.
Types of Attic Insulation We Install In Federal Way
Spray Foam Attic Insulation
Spray foam insulation is made from two types of composite material: polyurethane, and isocyanate. When sprayed out of the tip of the spray foam gun, the substance gradually expands, filling in the cracks and crannies of your attic before curing. Spray foam insulation is the most effective material for insulating your Federal Way home’s attic available.
Fiberglass Attic Insulation
Fiberglass insulation is usually installed as large segments of insulation that are rolled or laid out onto a surface, such as flooring, ceilings, or in wall cavities. However, blown fiberglass is becoming more and more popular, comprising one of the main insulation jobs we’re asked to install in Federal Way. This type of insulation is made of a mixture of natural sand and recycled glass.
Cellulose Attic Insulation For Federal Way Homes
Cellulose attic insulation is made from recycled paper products, primarily newsprint. It’s recycled material content is very high, generally between 82-85%. The manufacturing process reduces the paper products to very small pieces, which are then fiberized and mixed with a flame and insect retardant, usually mineral borate or ammonium sulfate. Cellulose insulation is primarily found in pellet form as a blown-in insulation, but can be manufactured in batts as well.
Cotton Attic Insulation
Cotton has become a favorite of the environmentally Federal Way friendly community. Recycled blue jeans have been used in its production, as well as other natural cotton fibers gleaned from industrial scrap. Most cotton attic insulations consist of 85% recycled cotton and about 15% plastic fibers, which are generally treated with boric acid as a flame retardant. Cotton insulation is non- toxic, and can be installed without respiratory or skin exposure protection.
Denim Attic Insulation
Denim insulation is an eco-friendly insulation material for your home. Without the itchy fibers that many other types of insulation contain, denim attic insulation is just as effective as fiberglass and cellulose insulation. While it is more expensive than other types of insulation, if you’re looking for an earth-friendly insulation material, denim insulation is the type of insulation for your Federal Way home.
