Metal roofs are durable, stylish, and long-lasting, but they can create unique insulation challenges. Without proper insulation, your home may overheat in summer and lose warmth in winter. At Koala Insulation of the Midlands, we help homeowners choose the right insulation to maximize comfort and energy efficiency.
Why Metal Roofs Need Specialized Insulation
Metal roofs heat up quickly under the sun and cool down fast at night. This rapid temperature change can make your HVAC system work overtime if your home isn’t properly insulated. Choosing insulation that provides strong thermal resistance and sound dampening is key to keeping your home comfortable year-round.
Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam is a top choice for metal roof homes. It seals gaps and air leaks, preventing heat transfer and reducing energy costs. Koala Insulation of the Midlands installs spray foam that not only keeps your home cool in summer but also adds structural support and blocks noise from rain or hail.
Blown-In and Batt Insulation
For homes where spray foam isn’t ideal, blown-in or batt insulation can be effective. These options are easy to install under metal roofs and offer reliable thermal protection. Our experts at Koala Insulation of the Midlands can assess your attic space to recommend the best solution for your home.
Reflective Barriers
In addition to traditional insulation, reflective roof barriers help deflect radiant heat from the sun. Pairing these with spray foam or batt insulation can dramatically improve your home’s energy efficiency and comfort level.
