What are the types of insulation that we install?
- Eco friendly
For those who are planning on finally going green at home, you might want to consider availing our eco-friendly insulation installation.
Typically, companies use fiberglass as their insulation material which is definitely a good choice since it is not a conductor of heat, not to mention it is lightweight. However, over time, fiberglass appeared to be posing a risk to the health of homeowners who have this type of material installed. Thus, more eco-friendly materials have been offered.
One of the most common yet environment-friendly materials used is insulation is Cellulose. This material is composed of highly recycled content, specifically recycled papers. This is also proven to minimize toxins in your home.
- Blow-in
Just like the name suggests, blow-in insulation is blown to completely fill gaps and cover spaces. What’s good about blow-in insulation is that it perfectly forms to any type of holes and gaps. There’s no need to cut through anything or avoid wirings so when working with spaces with no uniform shapes and sizes, this method will be your best option. If you are planning on having your crawl spaces insulated, blow-in may be the most appropriate type of installation to be done.
- Batts
Batts insulation is often called as rolls or blankets due to its similar appearance to the latter. Compared to blow-in, batts insulation is easier to install and does not require that much complex tools to be put in place. If you are working on larger spaces like your walls or attic, batts are the more convenient option. However, you may need a lot of patience if you are trying to use batts insulation for smaller areas or spaces with uneven shapes and sizes as you will need to cut through the material and fit it in the gap.
With all the benefits that it comes along with, installing insulation should be one of the first things to consider when improving your home. Should you need professional help, our office is always available to provide you with further assistance.
