Whilst doing an attic conversion it is a good time to add or change an attic insulation that you might have in the attic. If you find that your attic already has insulation and that it is in poor condition, this would be the perfect time to change the old insulation for a new one.
If you do have a badly fitted or old insulation in your attic that you would like to change for a new one that actually keeps heat in, you will have to pull out the whole floor and the walls to be able to remove it properly, so what better time than now? You have to be precautious when pulling out old insulation by making sure your eyes and mouth are covered to not inhale it.
Once the old insulation has been taken out and before fitting a new insulation, find out what type of insulation is best for your attic and your budget. Remember that if you buy a more expensive insulation it will last longer and in the long run, you will save money on your heating bills. Spending a bit more now will save you a lot in the future.
Remember that there are different types of insulation and you need to know if you will be installing it yourself to buy a simple insulation kit, if you are doing the insulation yourself it is recommended to buy rolls or batts of insulation, but if you want a professional insulation fitted that tends to last a lot longer, the best to buy is foams called loose fills.
Make sure you are fully prepared for the installation of your attic insulation and have the utilities you need to be able to do the job in a simple, economical and safe way, whatever way you choose to install your insulation. If the job is thoroughly thought out, done properly by a professional or yourself, you will have lower heating bills for many years! - 29955
