What should I do this week after my energy audit?
Confirm your current attic insulation depth and air leakage findings from the audit before choosing spray foam. Rebate and code rules depend on the existing R-value and the final installed R-value. Ask the auditor which air-sealing and insulation levels they measured.
How do I know if spray foam is actually needed?
Spray foam can be worth it when the goal is both air sealing and insulation. OG&E's attic program requires existing insulation to be under 8 inches or below R-23 and the finished attic to reach at least R-38. Oklahoma programs using a different threshold require R-49.
What should I check when hiring a pro?
Ask for proof of general liability insurance and workers' compensation before work begins. Oklahoma insulation contractors are licensed by municipalities such as Tulsa, not by a state spray-foam license, so confirm the city license. Get a quote that states the foam type, thickness, and final R-value.
Are there rebates or tax credits to check first?
OG&E rebates can be up to $500 for attic insulation upgrades, paid as checks with proof of purchase required. ENERGY STAR notes a federal tax credit of up to 30% of insulation cost, capped at $1,200. Check your utility's rebate page and the ENERGY STAR Rebate Finder with your ZIP code.
