Eugene, Oregon – Heat moving through an inadequately insulated attic can contribute to uncomfortable rooms, uneven indoor temperatures, and increased demands on a home’s heating and cooling system. Klaus Roofing Systems of Oregon addresses these issues with blown-in cellulose insulation designed to create a more consistent thermal barrier across the attic.
Unlike insulation that is installed in pre-cut sections, blown cellulose can be distributed across an attic to fill the space to recommended insulation levels. With cellulose insulation installation in Eugene, OR, the material can also be installed over existing insulation in appropriate situations. In many projects, however, existing material may need to be removed first so that air leaks in the attic floor can be identified and sealed before new insulation is added.
That attention to air sealing is an important part of the attic improvement process. Insulation slows heat transfer, while gaps and penetrations in the attic floor can allow conditioned air to move between the living space and attic. Klaus Roofing Systems of Oregon offers air sealing alongside cellulose installation to address both parts of the attic system. For homes where the attic is used for storage, cellulose can also be installed behind plywood dams in selected areas while gaps in the attic floor are sealed separately.
Cellulose brings several material characteristics to attic applications. It is primarily made from recycled newspaper and is treated with a non-toxic borate solution. This treatment gives the insulation a Class 1 fire safety rating while also making the material resistant to mold and pests. Cellulose provides an additional option for homeowners seeking to increase attic R-value while creating a continuous blanket of insulation across the space.
Cellulose installation is part of a broader range of attic services available through the company. Klaus Roofing Systems of Oregon also provides rigid foam insulation, air sealing, duct sealing, duct insulation, and attic mold-related services. This allows attic conditions to be considered as a connected system instead of assuming that adding more insulation alone will address every comfort or efficiency concern.
For Eugene-area homeowners considering an attic insulation upgrade, the company provides evaluations and complimentary estimates to help determine suitable options. Additional information is also available through Klaus Roofing Systems of Oregon on Facebook. Homeowners can use an attic assessment to better understand existing insulation conditions and whether cellulose, air sealing, or another attic improvement may be appropriate for the property.
