Insulation

Tips

  • If you have insulation in your attic graded at R-19 or less, consider bringing it up to R-38 in moderate climates and R-49 in cold climates.
  • In cold climates, if you have floor insulation graded at R-11 or less, consider bringing it up to R-25.
  • Make sure there are no openings from the attic into the home, e.g., air ducts, openings around chimneys, or open cavities into the home.
