Increasing your home’s resistance to shifts in temperature helps improve energy efficiency and adds to its value while also saving money on energy bills each month. Cellulose insulation is minimally invasive, making it safe and effective for use in existing homes that are not undergoing major renovations. In fact, adding cellulose insulation to older homes can have an immediate positive impact.
As an experienced cellulose insulation installer, Standard has operated in Central New York, ranging from Syracuse to Albany to Herkimer, for almost a century. Our expert cellulose insulation contractors can work within the confines of older homes and smoothly navigate around existing barriers, such as wires and blockages within walls.
Why Cellulose Insulation Is a Safe & Environmentally Friendly Choice
The primary material used in cellulose insulation is its namesake — cellulose, which is an environmentally friendly, plant-based material. The result is an effective insulation option that reduces your environmental footprint.
Additionally, cellulose insulation is a safe option for your home. The 15% of the material that is not cellulose is made from a Class-1 fire-retardant material.
Finally, cellulose insulation does its job well. The mix of plant-based and fire-retardant material in cellulose insulation creates a powerful barrier against both weather and sound, increasing the comfort and value of your home and helping to lower monthly energy bills.
How Cellulose Insulation Service Works
Cellulose insulation is sometimes referred to as blown-in insulation due to the installation process associated with the insulation. Standard assigns a cellulose insulation installer to ensure the process of upgrading the insulation in the home is smooth and easy with minimal effect on existing walls or surrounding structures.
To do this, the technician drills a series of holes 16 inches apart along the walls near the floor and the ceiling. Then, a specialized machine is used to blow the cellulose insulation into the walls of the home through the holes.
Once the process is complete, the holes are sealed with spackle or plugs.
