Feeling a little down in the dumps lately? While there are any number of things that could be causing you to feel sad, you may not have considered that clutter might be the culprit.
Blown-in insulation is a common way to insulate attics and wall cavities using loose particles. Originally created in the 1920’s, blown-in insulation is now made from either fiberglass, cellulose, or mineral wool. This highly-effective method of attic insulation is extremely popular, thanks to the many benefits it provides to homeowners.
It's been nearly three years since the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency set off shock waves across the country with its finding that pollutant levels found in most American homes are two to five times worse – and sometimes 100 times worse – than those levels found outdoors.
Put another way, when you add up all the threats to your home's indoor air quality, they could be more dangerous than breathing emissions from cars and gas-powered devices as well as pollutants that flow from retail and commercial buildings.
Considering that most Americans spend more than 90 percent of their time indoors, the EPA has continued its crusade to educate homeowners about how to remain vigilant about their home's air quality. First Quality Roofing & Insulation eagerly shares this mission, knowing that in Las Vegas, home maintenance reminders are valued by proactive homeowners.
Who could blame you for feeling a little nervous? After all, as you look around your attic, you're out of your element.
But if you're trying to determine if you need attic insulation – and if so, gain a general idea about how much you might need – you will need two “tools”: your eyes and a tape measure.

Attics are their element, and they stand ready to assist your best efforts to ensure that your home is properly insulated so that yo're not paying a dollar more than necessary to cool your home.
