Blown-in Insulation

When we install blow-in insulation in your walls or attic, we’ll examine the location to determine the best way to tighten up your walls or attic. By keeping the area tight, we block outside weather from entering, and keep your heated or cooled air inside, where it belongs. We also ensure the area has proper ventilation, so that dirt, allergens, and pollutants are kept out. This allows you to breathe the cleanest, purest air possible – a difference that every member of the family will surely notice.

Cellulose

  • Fire Resistance
  • Cost Effective Install
  • Long Term Benefits
  • Clean and Non-Toxic

Blown-in cellulose is excellent for insulating “hard-to-reach” spaces. In the attic and roof cavity, where there are many limited access areas, blown-in cellulose provides very effective coverage. When professionally installed, the material fills cavities and spaces better than batt insulation.

Other types of Blown-in

  • Mineral Wool
  • Fiberglass

 

FAQ

Homeowners’ Frequently Asked Questions

R-value measures insulation’s resistance to heat flow. It can also be referred to as “thermal resistance.” The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power. All materials having the same R-value, regardless of type, thickness, or weight, are equal in insulating power. The R-value of different insulating materials must be based on test methods established by the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM). Don’t forget that R-values are determined by material type, thickness, and installed weight per square foot, not by thickness alone. Insulation helps keep your home cool during the summer months and warm during the winter months.
Don’t spend thousands of dollars upgrading to so-called energy efficient heat pumps without taking other steps to reduce energy waste. And before you rush off to install that brand new electric pump, understand that the refrigerant used by heat pumps are powerful greenhouse gas emissions. Insulation saves money, increases home comfort, and protects the environment by reducing energy use. According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), the typical U.S. family spends close to $1,500 each year on energy bills. DOE statistics show that, typically, 44% of a homeowner’s utility bill goes for heating and cooling costs. DOE states that homeowners may be able to reduce their energy bills from 10% to 50% by taking certain steps. One of the major steps is increasing the amount of thermal insulation in their existing homes or purchasing additional insulation when buying new homes. Unless your home was constructed with special attention to energy efficiency, adding insulation will probably reduce your utility bills. The amount of energy you conserve will depend on several factors: your local climate; the size, shape, and construction of your house; the living habits of your family; the type and efficiency of the heating and cooling systems; and the fuel you use. Energy conserved is money saved, and the annual savings increase when utility rates go up. Insulation upgrades also add to the value of your home.
