Blown-In Attic Insulation: Keep Comfort In and Weather Out

Did you know that up to 30% of your home's heat escapes straight through the roof? If your home is older or under-insulated, your furnace is fighting a losing battle against Michigan's freezing winters. Furthermore, escaping heat melting snow on your roof is the primary cause of destructive winter ice dams. In the summer, the opposite happens: intense radiant heat from your roof pushes down into your living spaces, causing your air conditioner to run non-stop.

Upgrading your attic insulation is one of the quickest, most cost-effective ways to drastically improve your home's thermal efficiency and lower your monthly utility bills. Michigan Exterior Pros provides professional blown-in fiberglass insulation services for homeowners in Lapeer County. We will evaluate your current attic levels, identify areas of energy loss, and bring your insulation up to the recommended R-value for the Michigan climate, creating a thick thermal blanket over your living space.

Our Insulation & Ventilation Services

Blown-In Fiberglass Insulation: Adding a thick, seamless layer of premium Owens Corning fiberglass over existing insulation.
Attic Ventilation Assessment: Ensuring soffit and ridge vents are working together to keep the attic space cold in the winter and dry year-round.
Baffle Installation: Installing vent chutes (baffles) to prevent the new insulation from blocking critical soffit airflow.
Ice Dam Prevention: Stopping the heat transfer that causes snow melt and the subsequent freezing at the roof's edge.
Energy Efficiency Audits: Measuring current R-values to determine exactly how much material is needed to meet modern code.

Our Installation Process

What You Can Expect

Our blown-in installation process is fast, clean, and minimally invasive, usually completed in just a half-day.

Attic Inspection

We measure your current insulation depth, check for proper ventilation, and identify areas where heat may be leaking from the living space below.

Vent Prep & Baffling

We install protective baffles into the eaves to ensure the incoming insulation does not block the vital airflow from your soffit vents.

Clean Blowing Process

Our blowing machine stays outside while a single hose is run up to your attic. We blow a uniform, fluffy layer of fiberglass to achieve the target R-value.

Final Check & Cleanup

We verify the depth with rulers throughout the attic, replace the access hatch securely, and vacuum any stray fibers from your home.

Owens Corning ProPink®

Premium Insulation Materials

We use industry-leading loose-fill fiberglass insulation that maintains its R-value over time without settling or absorbing moisture.

High R-Value Per Inch

Advanced fiberglass technology that traps millions of tiny air pockets for maximum thermal resistance.

Non-Combustible & Safe

Fiberglass is naturally fire-resistant, non-corrosive, and does not provide a food source for pests or mold.

No Settling

Unlike older cellulose insulation, premium blown fiberglass retains its loft and won't compress significantly over the years.

Attic Insulation FAQs

What is an R-Value and what should my attic have?

R-value is a measure of a material's resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the better the insulating power. For homes in Michigan (Zone 5/6), the Department of Energy recommends an attic R-value between R-49 and R-60. This roughly translates to about 16 to 20 inches of blown-in fiberglass insulation.

How does insulation prevent ice dams?

Ice dams form when heat from your house escapes into the attic and warms the roof deck, melting the snow on the roof. The water runs down to the colder eaves (the overhangs) and refreezes into a dam of solid ice, which forces subsequent water to back up under your shingles. Proper insulation acts as a barrier, keeping the heat in your living space and keeping the attic (and the roof deck) cold, stopping the melt-and-freeze cycle.

What type of insulation do you install?

We install premium blown-in fiberglass insulation, primarily from industry leaders like Owens Corning. Unlike older cellulose insulation, modern loose-fill fiberglass is non-combustible, doesn't settle over time, and won't absorb moisture that leads to mold growth.

Will adding attic insulation help lower my summer AC bills?

Yes! Just as insulation keeps your winter heat trapped inside, it acts as a powerful barrier against summer heat. Without insulation, the radiant heat baking your roof transfers directly into your home, forcing your air conditioner to run constantly. A thick layer of insulation blocks that radiant heat transfer.

Can you install new insulation right over my old insulation?
