Air fiberglass insulation is a critical component of attic insulation performance. Even small gaps can allow significant amounts of conditioned air to escape, undermining insulation effectiveness and increasing energy costs. Proper air sealing enhances comfort, efficiency, and indoor air quality.

Common air leaks occur around wiring, plumbing penetrations, attic hatches, and recessed lighting. Sealing these areas prevents unwanted airflow, allowing insulation to perform as intended.

Air movement is governed by pressure differences between indoor and outdoor environments. Effective air sealing minimizes these exchanges.

Air Sealing Best Practices

Seal gaps with spray foam or caulk before adding insulation. Weatherstrip attic access points and seal duct penetrations.

Proper air sealing enhances comfort, efficiency, and indoor air quality.
