Fiberglass has been the go-to insulation material for decades across many Colorado attics. Offered as loose-fill or batt insulation, it delivers decent affordability and availability.
Fiberglass insulation works well for most Denver home attics when properly installed at the right thickness. Be sure insulation fully fills all gaps and corners without compression or settling issues over time.
Similar to fiberglass yet made from natural basalt rock and recycled materials, mineral wool insulation offers sound dampening properties along with energy efficiency.
Mineral wool insulation works well for Denver attic retrofits or new builds where both insulation performance and noise reduction are key goals. Proper installation is crucial to deliver expected results long-term.
For homeowners wanting a natural, sustainable green insulation made largely from recycled materials, cellulose is an excellent option to consider.
With proper attic prep work and certified dense-pack installation, cellulose insulation performs well long-term. The higher initial material cost pays itself back over time through utility savings.
As one of the priciest yet highest performing insulation types available today, spray foam insulation is applied as a liquid that expands to fill every gap.
For Denver homeowners wanting maximum energy efficiency along with improved comfort and indoor air, spray foam insulation is an option. Weigh considerable upfront investment against long-term performance goals.
Foam board insulation panels containing polyisocyanurate, polyurethane, or polystyrene foam offer an appealing rigid option.
Foam board insulation panels work well laid over existing insulation, unfinished attics, or difficult to access spaces. Ensure proper sealing around any seams or joints for best efficiency.
Reflective insulation takes a unique approach by using aluminum foil sheets to reflect heat in appropriate directions.
If installed properly between rafters or roof decking with ample air flow, reflective insulation provides additional insulation power. Combining with traditional insulation enhances overall performance.
Choosing the right type of insulation involves weighing a variety of factors from performance needs, goals, budget, and more.
The R-value references an insulation’s capacity to resist conducted and convected heat flow. The higher the R-value, the better its insulating performance. Most attics target R-30 to R-60. The optimal R-value depends on your Denver climate zone and seasons. Work with our team to determine ideal numbers.
Consider energy efficiency goals beyond insulation R-values alone. Air sealing gaps and proper installation matter as much. We ensure your insulation works optimally with thorough attic air sealing for better efficiency.
While insulation keeps heat in during cold months, attics still require proper ventilation from soffit vents to ridge vents. We ensure optimal attic ventilation before installing insulation that breathes appropriately.
We adhere strictly to fire codes and safety best practices determined by the manufacturer for each insulation type during installation. Fire safety depends greatly on proper usage.
Consult our team about potential rebates through Energy Star, federal tax credits, and local utility incentives that make insulation upgrades more affordable. Get the best insulation for your budget.
