The secret to a comfortable, energy-efficient home isn't what most contractors want you to believe. Watch this to learn "Easy Attic Fixes You Can Try Today! 5 Steps to Cooler Attic." While they're busy recommending you simply blow more insulation into your attic, Michael Church of Crawl Space Ninja reveals why this common approach often fails to deliver noticeable improvements in home comfort or energy bills.
In this eye-opening episode, Michael pulls back the fiberglass curtain to expose what's really happening in your attic. Through detailed examples and compelling visuals, he demonstrates how unsealed penetrations, leaky HVAC ducts, and improperly vented exhaust fans create energy-wasting pathways that no amount of additional insulation can fix on its own. The fundamental truth becomes clear: insulation is not an air barrier, and treating it as one is costing homeowners comfort and money.
