Residential attic insulation is an easy way to help your Roanoke home to have better energy efficiency. A well-insulated home, particularly in the attic, helps trap in cool air during the warm months and prevents warm air from leaking out during the cool months. It can also help lower your energy bills since your HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning) systems aren’t having to work overtime to keep your home comfortable in the extreme Roanoke temperatures.
Not only can upgrading your home’s attic insulation help decrease your monthly utility bills, you may also be able to receive rebates from your Roanoke area energy companies to help offset the cost of the new insulation. Some regions offer up to $0.15 per square foot in rebates, while others offer a flat-rate residential attic insulation rebate. To find out more about the savings in your region, call your energy company or visit http://dsireusa.org for more information on energy efficiency rebates for your residence. It's not just for attic insulation, the website has rebate information related to hvac replacement for Roanoke homes.
