Air Sealing your Attic to Prevent Air Leakage

With GNI, attic insulation begins with air sealing, mainly because an airtight attic is the key to energy efficiency. A well-sealed attic restricts air movement, stops air leakage, and enables the installed insulation to perform at peak. In short, air sealing and thermal insulation work together as a “system” – and overall, this makes for a home that is both comfortable and energy efficient.

When it comes to insulation products, and particularly in the attic, many industry professionals are relying on spray foam insulation as the best overall performer. This is an installation that delivers more benefits in the attic space than any comparable product. When professionally installed, spray foam provides an effective air barrier, vapour barrier, and insulator at one time, with one install.

Another option for the attic is “blown-in” insulation (fiberglass or cellulose). This is a cost-effective application that creates a “thermal blanket” throughout the space. Once installed, fiberglass has a number of attributes: satisfactory R-Values; fire resistance; mold/mildew resistance; and resistance to insects and rodents. Here again, a professional install will deliver the best overall outcomes.
