Norman is the Cleveland County seat, about 20 miles south of Oklahoma City on I-35, and home to the University of Oklahoma. Its housing ranges from older bungalows and ranch homes near campus and downtown to newer subdivisions on the west side and rural homes east toward Lake Thunderbird.
Near campus, many houses are rentals with original attic insulation, open chases and drafty attic hatches, which means high utility bills for tenants and complaints for owners. Newer west-side homes tend to have settled blown-in insulation that is below today's recommendations.
We drive down I-35 to Norman for free attic inspections seven days a week.
Attic Insulation for Norman Homes
For rental owners near OU and Campus Corner, attic air sealing plus a blown-in top-up is often the most cost-effective upgrade. It cuts drafts and summer heat without opening walls or disturbing tenants for more than a day.
Older Norman homes sometimes still have vermiculite or very old rock wool in the attic. We look for vermiculite before any removal work and recommend testing if we see it.
East of I-35 toward Lake Thunderbird, homes on acreage see more wind exposure, and attics with gable vents facing south winds can have insulation blown into drifts. We level it out, add baffles and bring the whole attic up to depth.
