Insulate and Air Seal Your Attic Pull Down Door Eliminate Hot or Cold Spot in the home
Through the years, homeowners who have been aware of air transfer/loss through the attic have attempted to remedy it by placing insulation around the attic door opening. Unfortunately, this technique doesn't provide an air tight barrier, therefore, little reduction in the amount of energy waste and air loss is achieved. It also creates harmful airborne particles of dust and fiberglass each time the attic door is opened or closed.

Here is an example of a home with a bowed attic pull down stair face cover. This thin 1/4 of plywood had cracked a full inch open on the front right corner, causing tremendous air infiltration and energy loss through the attic door on a daily basis. If your front door was made of 1/4 plywood and had gaps in it like this then your first priority would be to replace the front door! An attic tent solves this problem by providing an insulating barrier and a seal against air infiltration from the overally Hot/Cold attic space.
