Attic

From the practice of decorating the top storey of building facades in the Attic architectural style. From French attique, from Latin atticus, from Ancient Greek Ἀττικός (Attikós).

The Attic Tent is the ultimate attic access insulation cover ever invented (attic stairs, scuttle holes, knee-wall doors, and full-size doors.) Its primary design is to stop air infiltration between the home and attic, the most common medium for wasting costly residential energy, during both hot and cold seasons. The HVAC systems in homes are designed for a closed envelope making air balancing with supply and return air, very critical. Every time these systems are operating they create a positive or negative pressure, thus forcing conditioned air out or drawing outside air in the home. It also keeps out unhealthy insulation and dust particles from the attic.

Well, the first thing you need to know is, what does an attic look like? Technically, an attic is any space in a house that is between the roof and the top floor. Make note of any hatches or tiny doorways you see around your house because they may lead to exactly that: an attic!

Poorly insulated or uninsulated attics can reach 150 degrees in the summer heat (8)! Now, you do not want those temperatures radiating into your house. This is usually the reason your upstairs is so hot in the summer.

The Attic Abatement Program is funded through the Settlement Negotiations with Atlantic Richfield Company in 2022. The program will work to remove contaminated attic dust from properties located in Anaconda, MT.

In warm weather, the surface of your roof can get as hot as 160, heating up the attic space and making rooms directly below the attic uncomfortably warm. This puts a big load on your air conditioning system, causing spikes in your electric bill. One way to minimize this problem is to install an attic fan. This active ventilation system is inexpensive and easy to install. An attic fan will turn on automatically when the attic reaches a preset temperature. The fan is typically mounted behind a gable-end vent, but other types are available that exhaust hot air through a roof vent.

The good news is that you can short-circuit the Stack Effect cycle by air-sealing the attic and increasing attic insulation. Air sealing is usually done in the attic, before insulation is installed or with existing insulation temporarily pulled out of the way. An experienced insulation contractor can go through the attic and seal leaks with spray foam and other materials, but DIYers can also take on this task, using guidelines available at www.energystar.gov.
