Most of the insulation used in homes today is made up of fiberglass batts. These are rolled up and placed between joists in an attic to prevent heat from escaping the living space in the winter, and hot air from entering it in the summer. This type of insulation is a good choice for new construction and retrofits.

Adding more attic insulation is an inexpensive and effective way to decrease drafts and improve overall home comfort. It will also help to increase your home’s value and energy efficiency.
Blown cellulose insulation is similar to fiberglass insulation but instead of being packed in a roll, it is blown into wall cavities with a special machine that uses a 2 1/2 inch hose with a water nozzle attached. This mist of water dampens the cellulose fiber as it is being fired from the hose which creates an important balance that allows the cellulose to stick to the wall and yet not become wet enough to cause mold or mildew problems.
Many older homes are lacking adequate wall insulation which results in cold rooms in the winter and warm ones in the summer. This type of insulation is an inexpensive and effective solution to cut down on drafts, reduce heating and cooling costs, and improve interior soundproofing.
