I am closing on a new house in a few weeksThe inspection showed only 3/4quot; of cellulose insulation in the attic and suggested I get more or the energy bills will eat me alive.I've got a lot of money to pay out in the next few weeks and will not have the money to get the insulation any other way but credit cardI know that hot air rises, and cold air falls, therefore would it be allright to wait until fall to get this done or do you think the savings on utility bills will equal the interest paid on the card so I may as well do it asap? Any other suggestions would be great as well!Thanks

be sure to burn out those extra calories by the end of the weekIf you feel that you have consumed more calories than you should have during the week, it happens you know, and then make sure that you work off those extra calories by the end of the week.
Barley, Grapefruits, Oatmeal, Lima Beans, Apples, Pears, Red Kidney Beans.just to name a few.
The insulation should help you out both in winter and in summerThe insulation should pay for itself pretty quick if you install it on your ownJust get some rolls of insulation and lay them down in your attic between the raftersThe vapor barrier should go down so that the pink insulation is showingafter you lay insulation down between the rafters, lay another layer down crossways in the other direction so that the lines criss-cross at a 90 degree angleTry keeping gaps to a minimumThe more gaps you have, the more heat you will lose in the winterMake sure you wear gloves, a long sleeve shirt, and a mask when you are installing the fiberglass insulationFiberglass insulation can be very itchy.
