INSULATION
read moreEnhancing comfort and reducing energy expenses requires adequate insulation. In the region, numerous homes lack sufficient insulation due to historical building practices. The EPA now suggests a minimum R49 rating for Midwest Region 5, encompassing Illinois. However, high-efficiency homes boast insulation levels reaching an R60 rating.Testimonials

read moreI had Robert come to look at my attic because there seemed to be a problem with ventilation. He very honestly told me there was nothing wrong with the ventilation and made a simple suggestion as to how to fix the problem with no money out of my pocket. Wow. That is integrity not always found in contractors. Feel confident in calling him for an ethical appraisal of your job.

read moreI spoke with Robert to set up an appointment to check duct work, insulation, and an attic fan motor replacement. Not only did he squeeze me in, but his crew was very cordial. Everything was explained in detail and when they were finished you wouldnt even they were there. I will definitely be keeping these guys in my arsenal and I highly recommend them.

Attic Air gave me the best quote for attic insulation (I have two attics) and was also best price for attic fan $675 and installing a bath fan that I bought $175.00 (install fee). I know there's a lot of insulation companies out there but I thought Robert's communication and quotes were excellent. Other companies wanted to charge me 3x the cost for a similar job (I interviewed 7 companies) And, he was the only company to comply with my request for basement insulation that involves batts of insulation and not sprayed closed foam (I question the safety of off gases from foam). No one else was able to do anything other than spray foam in the basement.

Attic Air/Robert came as a suggestion to us by our HVAC guy, Sal with Pinnacle HVAC. So easy working with them form start to finish. Robert came out super quick for a quote and we got scheduled within a few weeks to get blown-in insulation done. The crew was timely, very professional, and worked exceptionally fast. We noticed a difference immediately and the product is already proving its value. So happy we worked with them and would recommend to anyone!

Attic Air was very responsive and professional. They showed up on time, completed the jobs quickly and cleaned up after they were done. After installation they made sure to show me their work and explain what they did.
We had an attic fan installed and was happy with their work. I had them come back to add insulation to the attic and exhaust the bath fans correctly. With the recent cold weather, it seems to have made the house more comfortable.
There was an accident by one of their workers that damaged an unrelated part during installation. Robert (the owner) immediately said he would make things right and take care of the problem. Attic Air was extremely professional and prompt in their handling of the situation. It was a relief that they care about quality.
I would definitely recommend having them take care of any attic issues.

I had a great experience with Robert and Attic Air. He inspected my attic and provided suggestions for the mold problem and even referred me to another company for mold elimination. We worked on the ventilation problem and he was very honest and provided me with a quote where I could pick and choose. We increased ventilation in the attic at a reasonable cost and he provided additional suggestions on how to keep the moisture out. He was very quick in responding and scheduling the job. I am happy I found him. Other companies were not even able to provide me with a quote after several weeks.

About Us
read moreWe are a leading provider of high quality attic fans in Chicago and Suburbs. Our attic fan installation is done by experienced technicians that have done thousands of attic fan installations for satisfied homeowners through Chicagoland. A powered attic ventilator, or attic fan, is a ventilation fan which regulates the heat level of an attic by exhausting hot air. A thermostat is used to automatically turn the fan off and on. An attic fan can be gable mounted or roof mounted. Additional vents are required to draw in fresh air as the hot air is exhausted.
Insulation Company
read moreTo improve comfort and lower your energy costs, proper insulation is essential. Due to building practices in the area over the years, many homes have minimal insulation. Currently the EPA recommends a minimum of an R49 rating for Midwest Region 5 which includes Illinois. But high efficiency homes are insulated to an R60 rating. We use Owen ProPINK Fiberglass Commercial grade blow-in insulation. With energy costs rising dramatically, homeowners want homes that are energy efficient. Owens Corning ProPINK Insulation, is one of the most cost-effective and efficient ways to conserve energy and save money on heating and cooling costs.
Roof Vents
read moreRoof vents are installed to allow air to circulate in your attic space. Good air circulation will minimize moisture build up in your attic during winter and prevent heat build up in summer. The number of roof vents needed will vary depending on the size of your attic. Air can leak from your house into the attic, and can bring water vapor with it. If your roof deck is cool enough to be at or below dew point, then condensation will form on the underside of the roof. Air movement from outside through the attic, helps remove moisture by diverting it out of the attic before it condenses.
