MEQUON ROOFING AND EXTERIOR SERVICES

The primary purpose to have insulation in our attic is to prevent heat from escaping. On average 90% of homes are under insulated and about 40% of a home’s energy loss escapes through the attic. Your energy bill can reduce by having the correct amount of insulation installed. When heat escapes, it causes more than just expensive utility bills. There will also be costly repairs due to mold and damage from ice forming. Adding insulation is one of the few upgrades you can do to your home that will allow you to see a financial savings every month.

Proper attic insulation, along with other energy-efficient techniques, will help keep your utility costs lower during the cold winter months. It will also help keep other problems from developing such as ice build-up and leaks in the roof from when the ice melts.
