Attics & Crawl Spaces
Attic insulation in Lakewood, CA is a frequency request from clients, and it is very useful for a home to have. Pretty much all traditional homes came with attics being installed for a few reasons. If an attic is actually finished and has high enough ceilings, it could be counted towards the square footage of the house. Although that is pretty uncommon. I think the most common reason for attics to be included in new home design is for roof structure and ventilation.
The attic provides an enclosed space that helps to protect the entire home from the outdoor elements. This space then gives the roof ventilation, which was always thought to be the only way to prevent moisture buildup of the roofing materials. Modern technology may be changing that, but the attic is definitely useful for prolonging the lifespan of the roofing due to the space and prevention it provides.
Attic insulation is also useful to maintain the space of the attic, which can be used for additional storage space, as well as holding main components of HVAC equipment and ductwork. Seasonal decorations are often placed in an attic, since they are only needed for maybe one or two months per year, and other than that can be put somewhere out of sight. So an attic comes in handy in these situations.
And the HVAC equipment and supplies being able to be housed in the attic allows for more living space to be freed up throughout the home. Some homes also may have crawl spaces, or other areas throughout the house like small basements to add additional storage space or keep any other components of the house. These are all very useful to homeowners and provide a little extra incentive when looking to purchase a home.
