Maricopa County, AZ's Trusted Attic Insulation Company

Lynn L. is a wonderful single older woman who lives by herself in her 2,000 sq ft home here in Phoenix. Like many older homes in the Valley, her attic had almost no insulation left, big empty voids, and zero air sealing — causing high cooling bills and uncomfortable hot spots in the house during our brutal summers.

Lynn specifically searched for a woman-owned insulation company and found us. She was happy to hear we could come out the same day to give her a quote. After reviewing her attic, we provided a very competitive proposal — one she said was better than the three other quotes she had received.

We went to work right away:

• Thoroughly air sealed the entire attic
• Filled all the large voids
• Installed TiteShell covers over all her recessed can lights
• Carefully marked all electrical fixtures with safety flags
• Blew in 14 inches of premium Trusoft cellulose insulation

This brought her attic up to the full Energy Star recommended R-49 level.

Lynn was extremely happy with the professionalism and care our team showed while working in her home. She now feels much more comfortable and confident that her home is properly protected against the Arizona heat.

Paul A. owns a townhome in Chandler and had been struggling for years to keep his house cool during the Arizona summers. No matter what he tried, he couldn’t get the temperature below 80 degrees. After his neighbor had great results with our insulation, Paul decided to give us a call.

When our team inspected his attic, we discovered several issues: a return duct that had completely detached, multiple large voids, no air sealing, and insulation levels well below code.

Our quote was right in line with what Paul expected, so he moved forward with the project. We:

• Thoroughly air sealed the entire attic
• Repaired and reattached the damaged return duct
• Filled all the voids
• Blew in high-quality Trusoft cellulose insulation to bring the attic up to current code levels

Three months later, during a major heat wave, Paul called us — very excited. For the first time in several years, he was able to get his townhome below 80 degrees. He’s now comfortably keeping his home at 75 degrees and is thrilled with the improvement in both comfort and cooling costs.

• Destroyed Ductwork: The duct line running to the hot bedroom was made of flexible ducting that was poorly installed, full of unnecessary bends, and suffered from a major split in the line that was leaking cold air into the attic.
• Zero Insulation: The attic space directly above that specific bedroom was completely uninsulated, allowing the Phoenix sun to bake the room from above.

• Ductwork Overhaul: Kevin and Adam replaced the damaged flex duct, straightened out the run, and eliminated the unnecessary turns. This streamlined airflow and completely removed the need for a split in the line.
• Advanced Insulation: Kevin encapsulated and insulated the new duct line using high-quality TruSoft Cellulose.
• R-49 Attic Insulation: Kevin and Adam brought the uninsulated attic space above her bedroom up to an R-49 standard to block out the desert heat.
• The Finishing Touch: We replaced her old, worn-out vent cover with a clean, brand-new one to improve both airflow and appearance.

The Problem: Uneven Temperatures and Air Leakage

Tom in Phoenix contacted Desert Attic Solutions because the second floor of his home was difficult to keep cool and comfortable. With the HVAC system working harder to maintain the desired temperature.

The Inspection: Finding Hidden Gaps in the Attic

Our team inspected Tom’s attic and discovered several unsealed gaps and openings around the wooden framing. Although these spaces may appear small, they can allow conditioned air to escape into the attic while hot, dusty attic air enters the living space.

The Solution: Targeted Attic Air Sealing

Our team focused specifically on the areas contributing to the problem. We carefully sealed the visible gaps and joints around the attic framing using expanding spray foam.

This targeted air-sealing work helps:

• Reduce unwanted air leakage

• Keep conditioned air inside the home

• Prevent hot, dusty attic air from entering the living space

• Reduce strain on the HVAC system

• Improve comfort and energy efficiency

The Result: A Tighter, More Efficient Home

With the attic gaps properly sealed, Tom’s home now has a stronger air barrier between the living area and the attic. This improvement will help maintain more consistent indoor temperatures and allow the HVAC system to operate more efficiently.

Improving Home Comfort with Rooftop Duct Insulation for Stephanie S.

The Challenge
Stephanie S.’s rooftop ductwork needed improved insulation and sealing to help protect cooled air from Arizona’s heat, with particular attention to the duct leading into her daughter’s room.

Our Solution
Our team applied spray foam insulation to the rooftop ductwork, followed by three layers of paint over the foam. We also applied mastic sealant around the entire duct leading into Stephanie’s daughter’s room to help reduce air leakage.

The Result
The ductwork is now insulated and sealed to help limit heat gain and air leakage, supporting more efficient delivery of cooled air and better comfort throughout the home.

The Challenge
Kathie F.’s attic had very little existing cellulose insulation, along with fiberglass batts that needed to be removed. The evaluation also identified bathroom exhaust ventilation needs, a long rectangular duct that could benefit from additional insulation, and a large opening near the water heater that needed to be covered before adding cellulose. A small attic hatch presented an additional access challenge.

The Recommended Solution
Desert Attic Solutions recommended removing the fiberglass batts and installing 12 inches of blown-in cellulose over the existing insulation. The proposed work also included spray foam encapsulation of approximately 40 feet of rectangular ductwork.

For the two bathroom exhaust fans, the plan was to add ducting and, if space allowed, route both vents outdoors through the gable. A cover would also be installed over the opening near the water heater to prevent cellulose from falling into it. The recessed light’s insulation-contact rating would be checked to determine whether a protective cover was needed.

The Goal
These improvements are designed to strengthen the attic’s insulation coverage, reduce heat transfer through the ductwork, and improve bathroom exhaust ventilation—helping Kathie enjoy a more comfortable home.

The Challenge
Bob C.’s attic in Phoenix had gaps in the existing insulation coverage. He wanted to improve the insulation to help keep his home more comfortable.

The Solution
The Desert Attic Solutions team added blown-in insulation, creating a more consistent layer of coverage across the attic floor.

The Result
The before-and-after photos show the change from exposed areas and uneven coverage to a well-covered attic. This insulation upgrade helps reduce heat transfer between the attic and the living space, supporting better indoor comfort.

Keeping the Arizona heat out was a priority for this homeowner in Sun City West. With approximately 8–10 inches of existing blown-in fiberglass insulation, he contacted Desert Attic Solutions to explore adding more insulation for a more comfortable home.

During Arizona’s hot summers, attic insulation plays an important role in slowing heat transfer into the living space. When considering an upgrade, it’s helpful to assess the existing insulation’s coverage and condition, along with any gaps where air may escape.
