It protects your heat from the elements, such as humidity, heat, and cold. Despite its importance, many homes in the United States remain under-insulated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the area\u2019s best <a href=\"https:\/\/bonedry.com\/lafayette\/\">residential roofing contractors <\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shares the benefits of a well-insulated attic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Energy Savings<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your HVAC system is responsible for 50 to 70 percent of your energy costs. If your attic is not properly insulated, your heating and cooling system will need to work harder to keep you comfortable. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says that you can save around 15 percent on your energy costs by sealing your home and insulating attics, crawl spaces, and floors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Healthier Indoor Air Quality<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dust, dirt, mold, mildew, and other pollutants can enter your home through leaks caused by insufficient insulation. Over time, these airborne pollutants can have negative effects on your indoor air quality. By making sure that your attic is sufficiently insulated, you can prevent these pollutants from spreading in your home. You will also ensure that your air is clean and as healthy as it can be.
