> 3 dayI simply lined it up around my attic hatch, stapled it in place with 3/8 (10mm) staples. Then used an expanding foam sealant around the inside base to seal it. My thermostat is almost directly below my attic stairs. Previously, it would either run continously, or not at all. I can immediately see an improvement and expect to see lower energy bills as a result.

> 3 daySeems to have a made a big improvement for the room right below the attic access. It is no longer the hottest room in the house during the summer.

> 3 dayEasily installed- we added extra caulking for a greater seal. Could tell the difference, no draft, right after the install..

> 3 dayWere in north Texas and its not unusual for an attic to get 130+. We installed this at the same time that had a radiant barrier put in and it makes a big difference. I have one of the thermal heat guns and, right now, it is 100 degrees outside (August in Dallas). The attic is 103 but, with the tent zipped up, the laser shows 84 degrees on the bottom (inside-of-house facing) part of the tent. When I then shut the attic door, it measures 77 degrees. This is great for us because the thermostat is right there. Its easy to install also - dont need a contractor or anything, just a nice staple gun.

> 3 dayLike the design, easy to install and seems to work as good, or better, than I hoped. My only concern is the zipper doesnt seem as heavy duty as I had hoped. It may be fine, and maybe a special zipper to form an air tight zip, but I plan to treat the zipper gently because if that fails, the whole thing is useless.

Greater than one weekWe have a house with a drop down attic stair,and the upstairs was always freezing in the winter (we live in Boston). We have tried three different kinds of these, and they have all not really worked or werent good quality, etc. This one is good because the zippers allow you to go in and out as much as you want without having to do any extra meneuvering. And you can tell it is keeping the cold air in the attic. One note, when measuring, you can totally round up. I got one size bigger since we were in between and it was perfect.

> 3 dayI purchased one for my house a few years ago. It has worked perfectly very easy to install. When I purchased a house for rental I installed one in that attic for my renter. Cuts the drafts big time.

> 3 dayIt was okay but I still feel heat coming from the attic. I caulked it and stapled it in well but I guess I was just expecting it to insulate more. I would say it is as advertised other than not insulating as well as I would have liked.

> 3 dayEasy 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.
