⌊Attic Insulation⌉⌊Attic Insulation⌉Does your home have a hard time cooling down
in those hot Orange County summer months? It could be due to a lack of the proper
insulation levels in your attic. Alps Heating & Air Conditioning installs Owens 
Corning attic insulation and can help keep your home comfortable year round.

Inadequate insulation is one of the leading causes of energy waste in most homes.
Insulation is the most basic and cost-effective way to lower your home’s energy 
usage. Adding insulation saves you money on utility bills and also makes your home
more comfortable. Installing insulation in homes also enhances the effectiveness
of HVAC systems and can extend the lifespan of the Heating and air conditioning 
equipment as well.

Approximately 90% of homes and buildings in the United States are under insulated.

Insulation values are measured by an R-Value, which is based on the amount of insulation
that is installed. The average R-Value of attic insulation installed in homes in
and around San Antonio is R-11. The recommended R-Value for homes in our climate
is R-49. Adding insulation to an attic can drastically reduce the amount of heat
that enters your home in the summertime. It also reduces the amount of heat that
leaves your home during the winter.

A quick way to find out if your attic is under insulated is to visually inspect 
it. If the roof rafters are visible then your attic is under insulated. Alps specializes
in evaluating and installing high-quality attic insulation.

## The optimum R-Value that we recommend is R-60 and we do offer free inspections and estimates.
