Insulation is one of the simplest ways to reduce energy waste in your home. It reduces your reliance on energy to maintain the desired temperature throughout your house, and it helps prevent energy-wasting drafts in the summer and cold air in the winter. It also lowers cooling bills and reduces your energy consumption, protecting the environment and your wallet.

The ENERGY STAR Home commercial insulation program offers rebates and incentives for homeowners who make certain energy-efficient improvements, including adding insulation to their attics. A properly insulated attic can save homeowners up to $117 annually on energy costs.

There are several types of insulation available, each with its own benefits and suitability for different attic conditions, DIY preferences, and budgets. This article discusses the 4 most popular attic insulation options and provides a closer look at each:

Fiberglass batt insulation is a long-time favorite and the image that many people associate with “attic insulation.” It’s made from tiny slivers of glass (which, in turn, were originally sand and other recycled materials). It can be purchased in rolls or sheets and is often referred to as blanket insulation. It’s a cost-effective option, can be installed by DIYers, and is fire-resistant.

Reflective or radiant barrier insulation consists of an aluminum coating on a substrate like kraft paper or plastic film. It’s commonly installed in attics and is primarily effective in warm climates because it reduces heat gain. It’s lightweight, easy to handle, and non-toxic. However, it requires an air gap to function correctly and may be more susceptible to dust accumulation, reducing effectiveness.
