Living in Upstate New York, we understand the struggle of keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. We get both ends of the spectrum when it comes to extreme weather, making home insulation an important investment. Without proper insulation solutions, your energy dollars are wasted as heated or cooled air escapes and outside air slips in.

And what’s one of the most common places for air to come and go from your house? Your attic space. Your attic is one of the most important places to have insulation and air sealing services. At Fred F. Collis & Sons, we offer professional attic insulation services to give your home the greatest possible comfort, climate control, and energy efficiency.

Why is Attic Insulation Important

In Central New York, attics are often larger than the national average due to steep roof designs built to accommodate heavy snowfall. Warm air naturally rises up toward the attic in what is called the “stack effect.” Without proper attic insulation, this warm air escapes through the attic, forcing your HVAC system to work harder and driving up energy costs. When the attic is air-sealed and insulated properly, you can keep the climate-controlled air where you want it… in your living space, keeping you and your family comfortable!

Benefits of Attic Insulation Installation

Insulation can be applied to a number of places in and around your home. What’s the big draw to installing it in your attic, a place you rarely visit? A properly insulated attic will:

• Slow heat transmission into and out of the attic

• Keep indoor temperatures more consistent throughout the year

• Reduce home heating and cooling loads

• Reduce home energy consumption

• Lower utility bills by improving energy efficiency

• Extend the life of your HVAC equipment

Upgrading your home’s insulation is one of the best ways to improve energy savings and indoor comfort.
