  1. Significant Benefits of Removing Old Attic Insulation Whether you want it or not, it’s necessary to remove and replace the old attic insulation to keep your home energy-efficient. One of the most important places in your house that affect the overall comfort is your attic. Maintaining your attic brings you a list of benefits, including saving on energy bills, high-quality indoor air, etc. Insulating your attic is one of the best things you can do to keep your home warm in winter and cool in summer. However, most homeowners don’t know how to maintain the attic insulation and leave it the way it is without any plan to check it regularly. Our professionals at Weaver Eco Home offer the best services on overall house assessment and energy audit to help you understand whether you need to change your attic insulation. Inefficient attic insulation leads to great effects on your home’s comfort and energy efficiency. That’s why you have to be careful about signs telling you it’s time to replace your attic. Here we list the benefits of removing your old attic insulation to make you understand how much important it is. Improved air sealing: One of the best methods to improve indoor air quality is to seal the air all over your house, especially the attic. Professionals can get spray foam insulation in areas where air leakage occurs to seal the air and reduce air leakage. However, not removing your attic insulation doesn’t let you take the most advantage of spray foam insulation. As all experienced attic insulators recommend, removing the old insulation is vital before having your air sealing system perform efficiently. Improved health: It’s important to realize how not removing your old attic insulation is dangerous for your health. Some types of insulations, such as fiberglass and cellulose, absorb allergens and moisture that make the condition ideal for mold to grow. It’s important to ask for deep mold removal as soon as possible to preserve your general well-being and prevent more problems. Furthermore, you can ask a professional for tips on mold and mildew prevention to protect your family and yourself. Moisture prevention: Controlling moisture in your home is necessary to reduce costs and save energy. Unfortunately, many homeowners don’t notice moisture because of the old attic insulation until too late. Moisture issues lead to health problems, especially mold growth, that should be immediately addressed by a professional. It’s recommended to ask a mold inspector to check your attic if you notice moisture because of the old attic insulation. Improved air circulation: Many homeowners believe that attic ventilation is the most important thing to improve air circulation. Although attic ventilation is effective, your insulation is still important to give the attic conditioned space. Removing the old attic insulation and replacing it with a new one helps to cool and warm your indoor space as required. Furthermore, lack of proper air circulation can make the appliances such as heat pumps wear out faster than normal. If you don’t know how to improve the overall condition of your house, our professional energy auditors can help you. Contact us for more information!
