When most homeowners think of home improvement, they picture kitchen remodels, new siding, or roof replacements. But one of the most effective upgrades you can make, especially here in Springfield, is adding or upgrading your attic insulation.
At Capital City Home Improvement, we help homeowners throughout the Springfield area improve their comfort, lower energy bills, and protect their homes from the inside out. Attic insulation may not be flashy, but it’s one of the smartest investments you can make in your home.
Why Attic Insulation Matters
Your attic plays a major role in regulating the temperature of your entire house. Without proper insulation, heat escapes through your roof in the winter and floods into your home during the summer, forcing your HVAC system to work overtime and costing you more in energy bills.
In Springfield, with our cold winters and humid, hot summers, this becomes a year-round issue. The right amount and type of attic insulation can:
- Reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 20%
- Improve indoor comfort throughout the seasons
- Prevent ice dams and moisture issues
- Extend the life of your HVAC system
- Increase the resale value of your home
Signs Your Attic May Need More Insulation
If your home was built before the 2000s, or even in the last 10–15 years, there’s a good chance your attic insulation isn’t up to today’s recommended standards. Here are a few signs it might be time for an upgrade:
- Your home is drafty or has uneven temperatures
- Energy bills are higher than normal
- You notice ice dams on the roof in winter
- HVAC runs constantly in summer or winter
- You can see floor joists when looking at attic insulation
- Pests or moisture problems in the attic
We offer free attic evaluations to help you determine whether insulation is the issue and exactly what needs to be done to fix it.
