Insulation for Universal City homes

Why Universal City attics need attention.

Many Universal City homes are single-story houses with ceilings that sit directly under a hot attic. When the insulation is decades old, compressed or uneven, the ceiling lets heat through all afternoon and the AC struggles to catch up.

We inspect the attic, check for air leaks around ducts, plumbing and light fixtures, and look for signs of pests. Then we recommend the right approach, from adding insulation to full removal, cleaning and replacement.

Visible joists

Insulation levels, rebates and tax credits in Universal City.

Recommended R-value

Bexar County is in IECC climate zone 2A. For zones 2 and 3, ENERGY STAR recommends R-49 for an uninsulated attic and R-38 when you already have 3 to 4 inches. We measure your current depth during the free visit.

Utility rebates

If CPS Energy is your electric provider: it pays $0.35 per sq ft for contractor-installed attic insulation on projects completed Feb 1, 2026 to Jan 31, 2027. For attics with more than 24" of clearance, the existing level must be R-14 or less and the final level R-38 or more.

Federal tax credit

The federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C) does not apply to insulation placed in service after December 31, 2025, so don’t plan your budget around it.
