The recommended amount of attic insulation for Houston and most of Texas is a R 38, which is equal to 16 inches of fiberglass insulation.





                 


The attic in not only where the extreme heat is coming into your house, but also the largest part of your house where your energy is escaping.  This is why applying radiant barrier with attic insulation is so effective..  Its real easy to explain.....insulation keeps the temperature you want inside your house to stay in your home and the radiant barrier keeps the temperature that you don't want from outside of your house from entering your home.
