Affordable upgrade. Cellulose insulation is often used in attics because it can be installed quickly and effectively with blowing equipment. Cellullose is super-green: It’s made from recycled newspapers and treated for resistance to fire, mold and insects.
It's a fact: Most houses have comfort and energy problems because of inadequate attic insulation. Today the U.S. Dept. of Energy recommends that homes in Connecticut have between R-49 and R-60 of attic insulation. That's at least 16 in. of cellulose or fiberglass insulation. Yet many houses have only 6 in. of attic insulation --just R-19 or so.
High utility bills, plus rooms that are too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer

DETAILS MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Baffles keep ventilation channels open. Plastic spacers are installed between rafters in the attic to maintain a vent space beneath the roof surface after new insulation is installed.
Be careful when selecting a contractor to upgrade your attic insulation. Some contractors install just one kind of insulation, so they can't provide you with a range of insulation choices to match your home and budget requirements. Other contractors won't take the time to properly air-seal your attic before installing new insulation.
Insulation without air-sealing is malpractice! To get the benefit of an attic insulation upgrade, it's critical to seal leaks around recessed lights, chimneys, vent pipes, and other gaps or openings that allow conditioned air from your living space to leak into your attic.
Dr. Energy Saver has the training and special equipment to properly air-seal your attic in advance of an insulation upgrade.
Installing baffles ensures proper attic ventilation. Sized to fit between the rafters in the attic, plastic baffles maintain a ventilation space between the attic's soffit vents (located along the eaves) and the ridge vent. Installing baffles before adding more attic insulation helps avoid damage from ice dams and excess moisture.
Old insulation can be reused most of the time. As long as the existing insulation is not wet, moldy or overly compressed, it can usually be put back into place after the attic has been air-sealed and before new insulation is installed.
