Upgrading insulation is a cost-effective project. Check out 5 things that can save you more money on your insulation project, like layering insulation.
With 60 million homes in the U.S. currently under-insulated, many homeowners are settling for less and missing out on the comfortable living space that upgrading their attic insulation provides. When done right, blown-in attic insulation hugs your home like a blanket to keep you comfortable with more consistent temperatures.
Proper insulation creates less fluctuation in temperature inside the home. Insulation blocks excess heat and cold from entering your house, sealing it like an envelope.
Owens Corning high-performance blown-in fiberglass insulation is mess-free and only takes a couple of hours to install through a long hose into your attic.
Properly insulating your attic allows you to utilize heat and AC less, which earns back your investment through lowered utility bills. Plus, homeowners can earn up to 107% back by insulating their attic according to Remodeling Magazine’s Cost vs. Value report.
For over 30 years, Brothers Services has helped homeowners stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter by adding blown-in insulation to attic spaces.

Attic insulation is measured by an “R-value,” which indicates how insulation controls the flow of heat and cold through your home. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) states that by combining proper equipment maintenance and upgrades with recommended insulation, you can cut your energy use for heating and cooling from 20% to 50%.
In the Baltimore area, the DOE recommends R-60 attic insulation; however, building codes only require an R-49. So, while most insulation only needs to be upgraded every 20-30 years, even the insulation in new homes could be under the recommended R-value. Unfortunately, that means many Maryland homeowners are missing out on all the benefits proper insulation provides.
