How does spray foam help during hot Oklahoma summers?

Spray foam seals air leaks in the attic, which reduces heat flowing from the attic into the living space. ENERGY STAR says a well-insulated and sealed attic helps reduce that heat flow, which directly addresses a hot upstairs. Less heat gain means the cooling system runs less often.

What should I check before I hire anyone?

Measure your existing attic insulation depth first, since most common types provide about R-3 to R-3.5 per inch. OG&E requires total finished attic insulation of at least 13 inches or R-38. Compare spray foam against fiberglass or mineral wool quotes, since code-compliant options can cost less.

Can I get a rebate for attic insulation in Bixby?

OG&E says homeowners can get up to $500 in rebates for upgrading attic insulation. The work must be in the attic between conditioned space and the unconditioned attic. The rebate application and valid invoice must be received by December 1 of the program year.

What must the contract and invoice include?

OG&E requires the invoice to show the installation date, products, quantity, price, and proof of full payment or a payment plan. Oklahoma code requires spray foam installed thickness and R-value on the certification. The aged R-value per inch must be given to you in writing at application.

Quick answers

Will spray foam insulation lower my summer electric bill?

It can, because sealing attic air leaks reduces heat flow into the home so the cooling system works less. Your savings depend on your home, so compare quotes before deciding.

Why is my upstairs hotter than the rest of the house?

Heat from an under-insulated attic moves down into upstairs rooms. ENERGY STAR says a well-insulated and sealed attic reduces that heat transfer.

How does spray foam improve energy efficiency in Bixby?

Spray foam fills gaps and air leaks that let hot attic air in. Oklahoma code requires specific R-values, such as R-38 in Climate Zone 3 and R-49 in Climate Zone 4.

What is the R-value needed for Bixby attic insulation?
