Attic Insulation Specialists

Before installing insulation, our team inspects the attic or wall spaces to identify any air leaks, gaps, or potential hazards. The area is cleaned and prepared for installation.

• Air Sealing: We seal gaps, cracks, or holes in the attic to prevent drafts and air leaks. This step ensures that conditioned air stays inside, allowing the insulation to perform optimally.

Different types of insulation are selected based on your home’s needs:

• Blown-In Insulation: Ideal for attics and hard-to-reach areas, blown-in insulation fills gaps and creates a uniform barrier.
• Foam Insulation: Foam insulation provides high thermal resistance when sealing small gaps and tight spaces.
• Fiberglass Insulation: Fiberglass insulation is durable, practical, and commonly used on walls and floors.

Once the insulation type is selected, we begin the installation process. This involves covering all areas to ensure complete coverage and avoid gaps or voids.

• Attic Insulation: Blown-in or fiberglass insulation is applied evenly across the attic floor, creating a continuous layer that prevents heat from escaping through the ceiling.
• Wall and Floor Insulation: For walls and floors, we use batts or rolls of insulation carefully fitted between studs, joists, and other structures to avoid compression, which can reduce performance.

After installation, insulation must be in complete contact with the interior air barrier (e.g., drywall) to prevent air gaps that can reduce performance.

• Interior Sealing: We confirm the insulation is snug against the drywall or ceiling panels. Any remaining gaps are sealed to create a continuous barrier.

After installation, we inspect the insulated areas for proper coverage. A final round of air sealing is performed to close any remaining leaks.

• Post-Installation Testing: If needed, we use blower door tests or infrared imaging to verify that no air leaks are present and that the insulation is functioning as intended.

Air sealing prevents conditioned air from escaping and blocks drafts, improving the overall effectiveness of your insulation. Sealing cracks and gaps helps keep your home more comfortable and reduces energy waste.

Blown-in insulation is typically the best option for attics because it fills every space for complete coverage. Foam insulation is also great for sealing small gaps and tight spaces, providing additional protection.

If your home has uneven temperatures, drafty rooms, or rising energy bills, it could be a sign that your attic insulation needs to be upgraded. Fan Man Inc. can evaluate your insulation and recommend improvements.

Yes, air sealing helps reduce moisture by blocking warm air from entering the attic and condensing on cooler surfaces. This protects your home from mold, mildew, and structural damage.

Properly installed insulation can last many years but may settle or become damaged over time. Fan Man Inc. can inspect your insulation and advise if any upgrades are necessary.
