Attic Tent ATT-at-5 Attic Cover, Silver

Great Product ahead of time arrival, Thank you.

Perfect fit! Very easy install (even for a girly girl). Already noticing a savings in the electric bill!

As advertised, Attic Tent greatly reduced air passing from attic to living area. Cover is great for occasional attic access, but needs to be stiffer or have some type of frame for more frequent use.

When my a/c guy came by recently to give an estimate on some repairs he pointed out that my attic stair ladder was not insulated and that hot air was likely being sucked from the attic and contributing to increased dust in the house and reduced efficiency of the upstairs air conditioner. I’m always wary of the upsell but a quick search of the energy star website indicated that uninsulated attic stairs can be a big source of waste. My a/c guy suggested that I install an attic ladder tent. I ended up with this unit and had it installed today. Measured with an IR gun, the hottest attic temp I can read with the tent closed is now 89 degrees. Before it was 108. Further, with the attic ladder opening fully closed, the air path between the attic ladder opening and a nearby return vent was hovering at 85 degrees. Now that same path is hovering at 75 degrees (same as everywhere else upstairs). In both cases the upstairs air conditioner is set on 73. This seems to indicate that air is no longer being sucked from the attic and the air being pulled into the return is the risen hot air from the room which is pretty much 75 degrees all along the ceiling. I also spray foamed in the cracks where they roughed in the attic stair ladder. I dont know if this is saving me money, but it clearly is reducing the amount of attic air being sucked down and back into my ventilation and thats a great thing. I suspect there are some savings as well. One last thing. The day after I installed this, my wife mentioned that it felt cooler in be hallway. This happens to be the hallway where the attic ladder is hung. I agree, it feels cooler.

Very happy with this product, easy DIY. Energy efficiency is solid!

Easy and fast install. Used 1/2 in staples. My HVAC system was in the same hallway as the attic access and was pulling air from the attic. Immediately stopped the air flow from my attic into the house. Noticeable difference in humidity levels.

Installed it in less than an hour. DIY saved me several hundred dollars.

Works well!

I wish this fit flush to the floor of the attic somehow, if you are like me- all stuff stored in the attic is in bins - some heavy..and where I could slide it to the edge and get out of the attic, now it has to be lifted over the edge... and could bust the sides of this cover, if not careful. But the insulated cover idea is great - and works!

This product is made of very solid material. Easy to install. Just staple the edges and apply caulk and youre on your way to save on electricity bill. My hallway is noticebly warmer with the cover in place now.
