Attic Insulation Ottawa

We are homeowners ourselves and understand the hesitations about insulating an attic. One reason people put it off is that they want to keep storing things up there. The roughly 270 mm thickness of conventional attic insulation is usually higher than the joists, so you cannot lay boards on top. Spray foam solves this: about 100 mm of foam insulation equals roughly 170 mm of conventional attic insulation, as cited by the National Insulation Association. Spray foam outperforms mineral wool or fiberglass because you need less of it to get the same insulating effect, and it air seals at the same time.

Attic Insulation Saves Money Big Time

Properly insulating your attic space is one of the most significant steps you can take to keep your home warm while driving down your energy bills. Heat rises, and a large share of it can be lost through an insufficiently insulated attic. Through a long Ottawa winter, that loss shows up on every gas and hydro bill.

Insulating your attic using our spray foam insulation in Ottawa is a straightforward process and can usually be finished in under a day, with no significant disruption or mess, by our trained spray foam insulation contractors. First, a breathable vent is fitted 50 mm from the roofing felt, allowing continuous airflow that removes moisture from the attic and lets your timbers breathe. Then the foam is applied to give your attic a continuous airtight seal.

Whether your home features cathedral ceilings, basement spaces, unvented attic rooms or curved walls, spray foam insulation in Ottawa can be used throughout the home. It can be applied to wood, masonry and steel.

When Your Attic Needs New Insulation

Common signs include uneven temperatures between floors, ice damming along the eaves in winter, heating equipment that runs constantly, and existing insulation that has settled, shifted or been disturbed by pests or renovations. If the material in your attic is old, damp or contaminated, our attic insulation removal service can take it out safely before the new installation goes in.
