The health of your roof is not only dependent on the condition of your shingles. It takes a complete roofing system, including attic insulation, to ensure it remains reliable and durable. Adequate attic insulation has many benefits, including extending the service life of your roof and even reducing your carbon footprint.
Heat travels from warmer to colder areas until the temperatures in both are the same. In the winter, for example, heat flows from indoor heated spaces to adjacent unheated spaces, such as your attic. One way to prevent the heat from traveling to other areas is by investing in good insulation. Quality insulation keeps your heated rooms warm and cozy while preventing heat from flowing to cooler spaces.
In addition to that, insulation can also protect your roof’s structural integrity. Excess heat can escape through gaps and cracks in your attic, which may eventually end up at the roof’s peak. This trickles throughout your shingles and roof deck, causing excess moisture and pressure. This can lead to ice dams, shingle deterioration and deck rot.
Good attic insulation is key to a healthy roof. It helps:
