What is Cellulose Insulation?
Cellulose insulation is a highly effective, energy-efficient type of thermal insulation. It’s a loose-fill material that consists of recycled paper. Often, this includes newspaper and other media that is carefully cleaned and processed into a material that can effectively shield your home from heat gain and heat loss. As it’s a loose-fill material, it must be treated with fire-retardant and blown into wall cavities.
Benefits of Cellulose Insulation
There are plenty of reasons that we highly recommend cellulose insulation to our clients in the region. Some of the most important benefits you will enjoy when you choose cellulose insulation include:
- Eco-friendly: Nearly 100% of cellulose insulation is composed of recycled materials. This makes it one of the most eco-friendly insulation options available.
- Reliable: Cellulose insulation provides effective protection against heat gain and heat loss, regardless of temperature extremes.
- Noise abatement: Dense and durable, cellulose insulation will help shield your home from outside noise, which makes it exceptionally appealing if you live on a busy street, beneath a flight path, or beside a highway.
- Cost-effective: While installation may cost more than other insulation options, it lasts considerably longer and offers exceptional thermal protection. This translates to lower utility bills for the life of the material.
- Comfort: Because cellulose fibers are dense and the material effectively fills gaps, you will enjoy reliable air sealing and reduced drafts.
