Does attic insulation save energy and help roof performance?

Adding more than the required installation can block ventilation openings at the soffits and eaves and might trap moisture. By having proper insulation you will eliminate moisture buildup and maintain steady attic temperatures in both cold and warm seasons. Signs of inadequate ventilation are ice-damming, mold on the underside of the sheathing and excessive frost accumulation on the roof deck or in the attic.
