Different Types of Attic Insulation
Fiberglass Insulation
Made up of sand and recycled glass, fiberglass is great for thermal insulation but offers some sound absorption as well. This type of insulation is typically the most common and most cost effective. It can be installed as blow-in or batt insulation.
Mineral Wool Insulation
Made up of rock, mineral wool insulation is very dense, which makes it excellent for soundproofing and resistant to moisture. It comes mostly in the form of batts.
Denim Insulation
Also known as cotton insulation, denim insulation is the most eco-friendly. It provides great thermal and soundproofing protection, and is treated to be resistant to mold and mildew. This is the best option for people with allergies due to it’s lack of chemical irritants. It is typically installed as batts.
Cellulose Blown Insulation
Cellulose is made from recycled paper products, such as newspapers or magazines. It is only installed as blow-in insulation. Its primary properties include thermal resistance and pest resistance.
TAP® Blown Insulation
TAP® insulation is cellulose insulation but contains more boric acid to act as a stronger pest deterrent. The boric acid dehydrates any insects that come into contact with the insulation, ridding you of these unwelcome inhabitants.
Sprayfoam Insulation
Spray foam is typically made of polyurethane. Mixed at the site via two tubes, the foam expands after being sprayed in. It’s ability to spread and expand makes it the best at ensuring all small nooks are insulated. It offers high R-values with less depth.
Foam Board Insulation
Foam board insulation is premade sprayfoam in the form of rigid panels. Like spray foam, it offers high R-values with less depth than other types of insulation. It is typically used for unfinished walls, floors, and ceilings.
