Like the previous two gentlemen, I'm messing around with my attic. The difference is I only want to use the available space it provides for storage. What type material should I use for flooring? I would assume that I can insulate it as you previously advised others, which would help with the energy bill at home? Thanks, jaager6

Hello
what szie are the ceiling joist? How much insolation do you have and what type bat or blown, you can not compact it and have the full R value. What are you going to store? The attic can have major temporatures changes form well over 100* to way down below freezing. AS jaager6 has said plywood is the best way to go you can allways rip the 4x8 sheets into 2-2x8 sheets so you can get them into the attic...
