Recommended Levels of Insulation<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Aladdin Insulation recommends following the Department of Energy’s recommendation on what R-Value is right for your home. \u00a0Here in Atlanta, Ga are recommended best R-Value is R-60. \u00a0Too many insulation companies are confusing today’s homeowners by charging too little or too much for attic insulation. Level the playing field by raising the bar and requiring the right amount of insulation or your home in the first place. After reieving estimates for the right amount of insulation for your home now your ready to look at the differences between the companies such as warranties, licensing, experience, and other services they may be offering such as Air Sealing.<\/p>\n

Insulation levels are specified by R-Value. R-Value is a measure of insulation\u2019s ability to resist heat traveling through it. The higher the R-Value the better the thermal performance of the insulation. The table below shows what levels of insulation are cost-effective for different climates and locations in the home.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
