There are attic insulation eral types of attic insulation, including fiberglass batts and cellulose insulation. Fiberglass is made of spun glass fibers and typically comes in rolls that fit between joists or studs. It’s relatively cheap, but doesn’t insulate as well or protect against moisture like other options.

It’s highly effective at reducing heat loss and preventing air leaks, and offers superior acoustic performance and resistance to pests and mold. It’s also vapor-open to manage indoor humidity and is carbon-negative, making it an eco-friendly choice.
