Blown In Cellulose Benefits
Cellulose is superior to other insulation materials and benefits and cons must be considered separately on each home project.
✓ Most general contractors advise their clients to make the switch to cellulose dense packed walls
✓ Significant difference is sound absorption / sound control
✓ Improved heat retention
✓ Heat protection from radiation (direct sunlight)
✓ Fire retardant / fire safety
✓ Pest and rodent resistant
✓ Mold, mildew and moisture resistance
✓ Dense packed insulation fills gaps and voids otherwise left open with fiberglass batts
✓ Cellulose Insulation prevents sagging at the top of the stud cavity
✓ Cellulose Insulation all-borate, liquid fire retardant is infused directly into the fibers, resulting in a more effective insulator at the price of competitive blended products
✓ Cellulose Insulation Blown In is the best method of insulation without removing drywall
Good for your home and environment!
Cellulose insulation has a functional lifetime of more than 50 years!
Blown in cellulose insulation is produced primarily from post-consumer wood pulp (recycled newspapers), typically accounting for roughly 85 % of the insulation by weight. Cellulose insulation is treated with fire-retardant. Borates and boric acid are used most commonly and account for the other 15 % of the cellulose insulation by weight.
Why Green Attic Uses Cellulose
Blow-in Cellulose Insulation is installed in empty spaces in the structural framing to slow down the transmission of heat out in winter and reduce drafts/cold. Cellulose Insulation is used to control heat flow for the following reasons:
Cellulose Home Durability Benefits
Cellulose insulation effectively eliminates cold spots, which can lead to condensation issues and the subsequent growth of mold and mildew. By preventing the formation of condensation, cellulose insulation safeguards the structural components and finish materials from staining and damage.
With its superior thermal performance, cellulose insulation ensures a consistent and comfortable indoor environment while protecting your property from the harmful effects of moisture.
Cellulose Comfort Benefits
• Cellulose insulation creates noticeably warmer surfaces, effectively reducing uncomfortable chills and drafts caused by both radiation and convection. By providing exceptional thermal resistance, cellulose insulation ensures a cozy and consistent temperature throughout your space, enhancing overall comfort and energy efficiency.
• Cellulose insulation acts as a reliable shield against overheating caused by excessive solar gains. By effectively blocking and reducing the transfer of heat from the sun into your living spaces, cellulose insulation helps maintain a comfortable and balanced indoor temperature. Say goodbye to the discomfort of sweltering hot rooms and enjoy a cooler and more enjoyable living environment with cellulose insulation.
Cellulose Energy Efficiency Benefits
• Insulating with Cellulose = Results: never before seen instant monthly energy savings which costs less as prices rise.
• Cellulose Insulation Creates Air Trapped Between Layers and divides the air space to reduce heat transfer in winter from the living side and heat intrusion from the attic side in summer.
