It’s inexpensive and easy to install, offering good thermal performance and sound dampening. It’s also a fire-resistant material and can be cut with a utility knife to fit into narrow spaces.

Blown-in insulation is a loose-fill material that’s effective in walls, attics and floors and can be installed anywhere in the home where there are gaps. It’s a good choice for a wide range of homes and is available in varying R-values. It’s a great option for homes with unfinished attics. To install it, first gear up with personal protective equipment and carefully follow the instructions on the bag.

A radiant barrier is a foil-like product that cuts heat gain in the summer (an inescapable fact of life in Panama City Beach) and reflects it back into the home to help reduce high air conditioning bills. It’s typically installed in attics, but it can be installed in other parts of the house as well. A properly installed radiant barrier can save you hundreds of dollars on your energy bill each year.
