Attic Rooms Could Be Costing You Money

The Columbus area – particularly older neighborhoods – has an abundance of converted attic spaces. It’s not uncommon to have a bedroom, sitting room, or office space in the attic. But attics aren’t built like the rest of the house and there are things to consider when using these spaces.

Attic Rooms Could Be Costing You Money - Image 1As winter approaches you might start to notice those attic rooms getting colder than the rest of your home. An improperly insulated attic can reach temperatures that are far below other rooms in the house, which can cause your utility bills to rise.

If you’re heating your home to 75 degrees, but your attic is 30 degrees, that heat is seeping out of those walls to attempt to warm the attic space. You don’t want to be constantly running your heater in the winter to make up for the lost heat.
