When you know winter is round the corner, it’s time to look at your attic insulation. This is done to not only prevent your home from the cold temperature but to make it energy-efficient too. This greatly helps in reducing your utility bills. Here are a few tips to prepare your attic for the winter.

Do a Visual Inspection
Most of us ignore to check on the attic. We only pay attention to it when there is a problem. Do a visual inspection of the attic and look around for any signs of rats, mice droppings or mould formation. You might also identify any type of structural damage. In case you identify mould in the attic, take immediate action to remove it. Mould spores can cause vulnerable health issues if they travel inside your room.

Check for outdoor crack
Make sure there are no cracks or holes on the exterior part of the attic. If there is any kind of hole or crack, it will cause severe ventilation problem putting pressure on your HVAC system. There are professional services available to fix these problems, so hire them and solve the issue to prevent the thermal energy from escaping.
