[QUOTE="oilwell1415, post: 9785953, member: 58424"] In Texas I wouldn't add insulation to the attic immediately above the ceiling. I would add a UV barrier in the rafters right under the roof decking and cover that with fiberglass insulation. That creates an airspace between the roof and ceiling that helps save energy. My cousin built [url=http://cu.motherearthnews.com/galleries/index.php?id=296374]this[/url] house a few years ago and used a technique similar to above. The power company pays them for electicity. Their house is completely air tight, so theirs will be more efficient than yours, but you will still get results. [/QUOTE]
