Blow-in Insulation

Blow-in insulation is a technique that involves using a machine to blow insulation materials, such as fiberglass or cellulose, into walls, attics, and other hard-to-reach spaces. This method is an excellent choice for retrofitting existing homes because it can be installed without the need for extensive remodeling or demolition.

How it works

Blown-in insulation involves using a machine to blow insulation materials into spaces, creating a tight seal that prevents heat transfer and air leaks. But with so many different types of blown-in insulation available, it can be challenging to determine which one is right for your home or building.

Why Blow-in Insulation?

One of the main advantages of blown-in insulation is that it can provide a more consistent and complete coverage compared to other insulation methods, such as batts or rolls. The insulation material is blown into the space, filling in gaps and voids to create a tight seal that prevents air leaks and heat transfer. This creates a more energy-efficient home, reducing energy bills and improving indoor comfort.

Types of Blow-in Insulation

Below are most common types of blown-in insulation and their unique benefits.

Fiberglass Blow-In Insulation

Fiberglass insulation is made of tiny glass fibers and is one of the most commonly used insulation materials. It is a cost-effective option that offers excellent thermal resistance, helping to keep your home or building warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Fiberglass insulation is also resistant to moisture and mold growth, making it a durable and long-lasting option for insulating your home or building.

Cellulose Blow-In Insulation

Cellulose insulation is made from recycled materials, including shredded newspaper, cardboard, and other paper products. It is an eco-friendly option that offers excellent thermal resistance and sound insulation. The Cellulose insulation we use is also treated with fire retardants and boric acid, making it resistant to mold as well as a safe and effective option for insulating your home or building.

Mineral Wool Blow-In Insulation

Mineral wool insulation is made from natural rock or slag fibers and offers excellent thermal resistance and sound insulation. It is a durable and long-lasting option that is resistant to mold, pests, and fire. Mineral wool insulation is also eco-friendly, as it is made from recycled materials and can be recycled at the end of its life.

Spray Foam Blow-In Insulation

Spray foam insulation is a high-performance option that offers excellent thermal resistance and air sealing. It is made by mixing two chemicals that react and expand when sprayed, filling in gaps and creating a tight seal that prevents air leaks and heat transfer. Spray foam insulation is also resistant to moisture and mold growth, making it a durable and long-lasting option for insulating your home or building.
