Adding attic insulation to upgrade to R38 in Coarsegold, CA

Doug had been struggling with a chilly home in winter and stifling temperatures in summer in his Coarsegold home. As a result, his heating and cooling bills were steadily increasing. After some research, he determined that his attic insulation must be low. He discovered Tyson through our 350+ 5-star Google reviews and gave us a call. We came out and inspected his attic and found that he only had about four inches of insulation present. He decided that adding attic insulation would be the best way to reach his goals of keeping his home comfortable while also reducing his bills.

We began by air-sealing visible leakage points to help prevent airflow between the attic and the home’s living spaces. We then blew in about ten inches of fiberglass insulation, bringing his attic to the Energy Star-recommended R38 level.

As a result of adding attic insulation, Doug will now enjoy reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 20%, a warmer home during winter, and a cooler home during summer.
