| Re: So I want to get my attic insulated... We had about 12 more inches blown into our attic last month by Efficient Attic System, along with the spray on radiant barrier. They have a deal with Home Depot for financing, but I'm not sure what the current deal is. We got 12 months no interest. So far, the weather has been pleasant enough that the system hasn't had to run for more than a few minutes at a time, so I guess it must work pretty good. Cost wasn't too bad and the work was done very well, but with most outfits, that depends pretty much on the crew you get.
The foil barriers on the bottom of the rafters may be more efficient, but it can be very labor intensive, depending on the configuration of your attic. imagine getting into those tight spaces out next to the eaves with all the nails hanging down over your head.
Hasn't really been warm enough to know how much effect it will have on the electric bill, but I guess we'll find out.
