Daytona Beach falls right in Zone 2 for home insulation requirements. While that probably doesn’t mean much to you, you should know what it means and whether or not your home meets or exceeds these requirements. If your home is lacking in adequate R-value insulation in your attic, then spray foam insulation from Daytona Beach insulation installers can help.
R-Value Means Protection
Most people assume that with as warm as most of Florida is all year you really don’t need insulation in a home at all. That simply isn’t true. If you have air conditioning, the insulation prevents the cooler air from escaping, and prevents you from having a higher cooling or heating bill. Recently, Florida has also experienced much colder nights in winter months, requiring most homeowners to turn on their heat to keep their homes comfortable. For attics in Daytona Beach, an R-30 or better value is required.
Not Enough Insulation and How to Fix It
You can have a building inspector or insulation contractor check the R-value of your attic insulation. Either one of these professionals can tell you if you have enough insulation. If you don’t, spray foam insulation from Daytona Beach insulation contractors can fix this problem quickly.
What Spray Foam Insulation Adds to Your Attic
Spray foam insulation applies/installs quickly and easily. Out of all of your possible insulation solutions, spray foam adds the most R-value per inch sprayed. In most cases a +3.7 or higher R-value rating is added, thereby increasing the insulation in your attic by that many R-value points.
