How to Make an Attic Stair Insulation Box | Make Your Home More Energy Efficient!

In this video, I make an attic stair insulation box. For the last few years, I have remodeled almost every part of my house and one of the biggest goals was to make it as energy efficient as possible. So, I have added a lot of insulation. In some rooms, there was little to no insulation and the monthly oil bill was really expensive. Now that I have almost fully insulated my house, I can tell a drastic difference on my energy bill- almost half! There is still one part of my house that I wanted to seal up and that was to insulate the pull down attic stair area. I made the insulation cover out of foam insulation board(with an R-Value of 13.1). I used a Flir Thermal Camera to get a before and after reading to see if it worked… it did! Was it worth the effort?
