Attic insulation is important for any home, but it’s especially important for homes in Minneapolis. Because the local climate gets extremely cold in winter, an improperly insulated attic will constantly leak warm air and your energy bills will spike. By extension, this can lead to destructive ice dams forming on your roof.
If your attic insulation is in need of replacement, it’s important to choose new insulation with an R-value of R-49 to R-60. Choose Abra Kadabra for professional Minneapolis insulation services that keep your home energy efficient.
When an attic is poorly insulated, hot air escapes through cracks in the roof during the winter. This hot air unevenly melts snow that is piled on your roof, which then runs down to rooflines and gutters before refreezing to create ice dams. Ice dams are a common winter problem for Minneapolis homes, often leading to roof leaks, damage to gutters, and water damage to your home’s interior.
Beyond being energy efficient, high-quality attic insulation is crucial for ice dam prevention. When your attic space is properly insulated, heat will be trapped inside your home and ice dams will not form. Investing in attic insulation services now can save you from having to pay for expensive repairs in the future.
Proper attic insulation will keep your home energy efficient and protect it from ice dams each winter. Contact Abra Kadabra today if you’d like to schedule a free inspection for our professional attic insulation services in the greater Minneapolis area!
