Attic Insulation Company Houston

Whether you’re heating your home in the winter or cooling it in the summer, hot air tends to get trapped in the attic. When attic temperatures become significantly higher than the temperatures throughout the rest of your home, your heating and cooling systems work overtime, causing you to pay more than you should on your energy bill every month. At John Moore Services, we have what you need to enjoy high-quality air circulation no matter the time of year.

When you want to keep your energy bills low and your energy efficiency high during the punishing Texas summer, it’s a good idea to inspect any nook and cranny in your home where hot air may be getting in. This may involve sealing any cracks in your windows and doors or considering a smart thermostat installation, but it’s also possible that the main culprit is the very roof over your head.

Many older homes in Houston and the surrounding areas have old, crumbling insulation—particularly in the attic. It’s an issue that’s easy to overlook until you start suspecting other problems, such as a rodent infestation or mold issues, and start checking around the house for evidence. Rather than waiting for something else to call your attention to the attic, it’s a good idea to make inspecting the insulation part of your regular home maintenance routine.

Look for signs of wear and tear like flatness, rips, and moisture spots in your attic insulation. All of these types of wear and tear can cause your air conditioning system to work overtime since the insulation isn’t properly absorbing heat. Replacing this old attic insulation is a great way to improve the air quality in your home and make you and your family more comfortable. In addition to better air quality, optimizing your attic’s environment ultimately leads to greater energy efficiency—not to mention savings on your energy bill.

The Houston attic insulation professionals at John Moore Services can help you improve your home’s air quality and create comfortable air circulation all year-round for you and your family. Our rigorous diagnostic and repair process starts off with:

•An audit to assess how effectively heat moves around your home, from roof to floor.

•We examine your windows and walls for any cracks where air could escape or enter your home.

•Then conduct an analysis of your attic insulation for its depth and R-value.

All throughout the inspection, we take plenty of notes regarding your attic’s passive and active ventilation systems. Finally, we put together a list of options that could help you save 20% or more on your annual heating and cooling bill.

Typically, the R-value of attic insulation decreases when it’s exposed to moisture. Insulation begins to flatten, destroying the air pockets responsible for trapping hot air. It’s okay to add new insulation on top of old, flattened insulation, but if we find signs of contamination such as mold, mildew, or rodent droppings, then we highly recommend removing the old insulation and addressing those problems first.

For optimum savings on your heating and cooling bills, we recommend a base level of R36 insulation, meaning a minimum of 15” of coverage of John Manville Climate Pro® Formaldehyde-free™ Blow-In Fiberglass Insulation.

Improving how your attic’s environment handles heat is a quick and cost-effective way to upgrade the energy efficiency of your entire home, and John Moore has the experience and know-how to get the job done right.
