If you live in Arizona, you already know how hard your air conditioner works during our long, hot summers. But when your electric bill keeps climbing, your AC unit may not be the only problem. Your attic insulation could be costing you money every month.
Arizona attics can become extremely hot during the summer. When a home is under-insulated, that heat can transfer into the living space below, forcing the air-conditioning system to run longer to maintain a comfortable temperature.
How Attic Insulation Helps
Proper attic insulation creates a thermal barrier between your extremely hot attic and the conditioned areas of your home. Adding blown-in fiberglass insulation to an under-insulated attic can help reduce heat transfer, improve indoor comfort, and reduce unnecessary strain on your AC system.
At Active Shield Insulation, we install Johns Manville Climate Pro® blown-in fiberglass insulation and can bring qualifying attics up to approximately R-38, depending on the home’s existing insulation and needs.
Signs Your Arizona Home May Need More Insulation
You may want to have your attic insulation checked if you notice high summer electric bills, rooms that are difficult to cool, uneven temperatures throughout the house, an AC system that seems to run constantly, or insulation levels that appear low or uneven.
Older Arizona homes aren’t the only ones that can be under-insulated. Even newer homes may benefit from having their attic insulation evaluated.
