Cellulose Insulation

Adding blown in cellulose insulation to your attic can also help to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer, while saving you money on energy costs.

This is part of our process to protect and maintain the thermal boundary of your home; separating the conditioned space (living area that you want to keep heated and cooled) from the unconditioned space.

Many homes have inadequate attic insulation—often none at all, in older homes! Or, your attic may be insulated with fiberglass batts that are doing a poor job. If needed, cellulose can be easily blown in over existing fiberglass batt insulation. Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratories found that capping fiberglass insulation with cellulose not only adds R-value, it actually restores the effective R-value that fiberglass insulation loses during cold weather.


When blown in cellulose is used in your attic, we can install the correct amount of insulation to achieve the desired R-Value, rather than trying to force a pre-formed fiberglass batt into a restricted, or oddly shaped space. Researchers of the University of Colorado School of Architecture and Planning have concluded that blown in cellulose attic insulation performs as much as 38% better than fiberglass batts.
