Attic Conversion

Make your attic a comfortable and energy-efficient living space?

Prescription Checklist:

  • Control air leakage throughout the house by air sealing the attic space.
  • Keep your new attic space comfortable and energy efficient by insulating the walls and ceilings.
  • If you are replacing windows, doors, and skylights, install those with the ENERGY STAR label to save money and energy while increasing your comfort.
  • To brighten up your attic space select ENERGY STAR light fixtures: suspended lights, ceiling-mounted lights, cabinet lights, recessed lights, or compact fluorescent bulbs.
