Cellulose insulation is a sustainable, environmentally friendly option made from recycled paper products, offering numerous benefits for homeowners and builders alike. Its dense structure provides excellent soundproofing, reducing noise both inside and outside the building. Additionally, it is fire-resistant, treated with fire retardants to help prevent the spread of flames. While pest-resistant, cellulose does not attract rodents or insects, making it a practical choice for various applications. It is also cost-effective, especially when used in conjunction with spray foam. We prefer to apply at least 1” of closed-cell foam to create an air barrier, ensuring the cellulose stays in place and preventing it from being displaced over time.
Home owners/builders can choose to install two types of Cellulose insulation in their properties.
Dense-pack cellulose is a higher-density version of loose-fill cellulose that is often mixed with boric acid, which helps to create a glue-like bond, ensuring the cellulose stays in place. This method provides better air sealing and can be more effective.
Standard cellulose insulation is typically loose-fill and is often blown into attics or wall cavities. It provides effective soundproofing and thermal insulation, but it requires proper installation to prevent settling over time.
