Northern Nevada comfort starts with the building envelope. Insulation keeps heated and cooled air where it belongs, reduces drafts, and helps your HVAC system work less. Whether you live in Elko, Spring Creek, Carlin, Battle Mountain, Winnemucca, Wells, or West Wendover, insulation upgrades bring steady temperature control and long-term value.
Where Insulation Delivers the Biggest Gains
Attics tend to leak heat first. Blown-in insulation boosts R-value quickly and fills gaps around trusses and wiring.
Crawl spaces affect floor comfort and moisture control. Batts plus a vapor barrier improve warmth underfoot and reduce damp air issues.
Walls matter most during remodels. Open walls create an ideal moment to add or replace insulation and air sealing.
Pro tip: Air sealing comes first. Seal penetrations around plumbing, lights, vents, and top plates before adding material.
Common Insulation Options
- Blown-in fiberglass or cellulose for attics and hard-to-reach cavities

FAQs
Which insulation upgrade gives the best return?
Attic blow-in often delivers the fastest comfort gains and efficiency improvements.

Can insulation be added without major remodeling?
Yes. Attics and crawl spaces often upgrade without opening walls.
