Why You Need An Attic Tent
Most homes in this area that have an attic have an access point tucked away in the ceiling, with a pull-down staircase. By adding a simple cover, you can isolate the air that is in your home from the draft you’re most likely getting from the attic access and instantly increase the effectiveness of your HVAC system. The cover that is installed can be unzipped and pushed aside when you need to get into the attic.
Poor Insulation Leads To Reduced HVAC Efficiency – And Higher Energy Bills
Installing an attic tent, helps your cooling and heating system run more efficiently—and in turn saves you money—because the attic tent is designed to insulate the attic access point. Without insulation, this access point lets conditioned air inside your home escape and allows unconditioned air to get inside your living space. In summer, it lets warm air in, and in winter, it lets warm air out. Even if you’ve made sure the rest of your attic has good insulation, if this access point isn’t insulated, it can undo all that effort.
This means your air conditioner and heater have to work harder to maintain the right temperature inside your home. And the harder your HVAC system has to work, the more likely it is to suffer wear-and-tear damage that may require repairs or replacement parts.
HVAC efficiency is hugely important, especially in a climate like Texas, where summers mean extremely high temperatures and winters can get cool. If your furnace and central AC aren’t running efficiently, your energy bills are likely much higher than they should be.
By installing an attic tent, you add insulation that:
- Protects your home
- Improves your HVAC efficiency
- Prevents energy loss and waste
- Reduces your utility bills, saving you money
- And still lets you easily access the attic
The Benefits Of Installing An Attic Tent
Adding an attic tent gives you a number of benefits, including some things you might not expect!
- Protect against moisture and all the problems that come with it.
- Help repel pests by covering gaps and cracks where they could enter your home.
- Make your home more comfortable and pleasant, in all seasons and all weather.
- Improve the energy efficiency of your furnace and central air conditioner and extend its lifespan.
Poor Insulation Leads To Reduced HVAC Efficiency – And Higher Energy Bills
You can also save money on utility bills in two ways:
- Increasing the efficiency of your HVAC system
- Often the thermostat is located under the pull-down attic staircase, and the draft from the opening can cause the thermostat to cycle unnecessarily.
Better yet, there are no downsides to installing an attic access cover. They will pay for themselves very quickly, thanks to energy savings and lower utility bills for as long as you own your home.
