"Atlas Home Energy Solutions is the real deal. Shannon did a thorough energy assessment and recommended several improvements. I was only able to do the top recommendation, air sealing/insulating the attic and whole house ventilation, but that made a huge difference! J.P., Vaughn, and a team of techs did the work in one (very hot) day. I noticed the difference immediately. Now the upstairs is much cooler on hot days and the a/c isn't running as long as before the work was done. The Atlas team is awesome! At the earliest opportunity, I will do more of the recommended items to make my house more energy efficient and comfortable and I suggest you do the same :)"

"Great! Job was complete .... removal of existing 50+ year old insulation, air sealing attic, baffle installation, installed 18 inches new fiberglass blown insulation, and new whole-house fan. Job started and completed as proposed. Crew on-time, quietly performed their work, and left spaces clean when done. Definitely worth the cost as noticeable improvement in second floor temperature and humidity readings."

"We had no idea how much energy we could save. They did an excellent job, incredible pricing."
Local and federal rebates are available for insulation installation, which can significantly reduce your overall costs. Many utility companies offer incentives or rebates to homeowners who improve their home's energy efficiency. Contact your local energy provider or government agencies to learn about available programs in your area, and consult with a professional insulation installer to maximize your savings.
It's not necessary to remove old insulation before adding new insulation, as long as the existing insulation is in good condition—dry, free of mold, and not damaged. Adding new insulation on top of old insulation can improve your home's energy efficiency by increasing the overall R-value. However, if the old insulation is wet, moldy, or damaged, it's best to remove it before installing new insulation to prevent potential health risks and ensure optimal performance.
Insulating a house takes between five and twelve hours for batts or boards, and two to five hours for spray foam or blown-in insulation. The exact time depends on the size of your home, the type of insulation, and the accessibility of the areas being insulated. Keep in mind that projects may take longer if old insulation needs removal, if there's a larger square footage, or if spaces are difficult to reach.
