LEARN ALL ABOUT BLOWN IN INSULATION!
Moisture Damage
Slow, minor leaks, severe weather, excessive or extreme temperatures, and intense humidity will cause moisture to build up. Sealing up air leaks will ensure that the new insulation will not become damp, leading to mold and mildew. Additionally, moisture can cause cellulose to lose its pest and fire-resistant qualities.
Pest Contamination
Rodents, birds, and insects that find their way into your attic, crawlspace, or walls may find your insulation to be quite cozy and thus decide to move in. When removing the old insulation, any pest feces and urine will be removed, and your attic will be sanitized completely before any new insulation get installed.
Air Sealing
Air leakage can lead to the transfer of heat and moisture, which can cause numerous issues, even with the highest insulation level. Reducing air flow is essential to improve the overall energy performance of your home. Koala technicians will seal around your access hatch, recessed lights, duct work and any other spaces that may allow air flow, creating a tight air barrier.
CELLULOSE
Cellulose consists of fibers made from recycled newspaper, cardboard, or wood and is made with or without binders. Cellulose is a very common type of blown-in insulation as it is made from recycled materials and is chemically treated to resist pests, mold, and fire. Boric acid is the primary chemical used to treat Cellulose insulation and is found naturally in seawater, fruits, and plants.
FIBERGLASS
Fiberglass is made from plastic, glass, and other raw materials that are melted and spun into fibers that resemble the texture of wool. Fiberglass insulation has moisture and fire-resistant properties. Because fiberglass is made from sand and glass, it is naturally non-combustible. Fiberglass has significant recycled content with some loose-fill products containing up to 80% recycled glass.
R-Value Matters
When choosing attic insulation, R-value matters. Insulation is labeled by R-value. R stands for resistance to heat flow, the greater the R-value, the higher the insulating power. Koala installers have the knowledge and experience to recommend and install the right density and thickness (R-value).
Depending on where you live, different climate zones require different R-values. If you live in a colder climate zone, like the northeast, you’ll need a higher R-value of insulation, then if you live in a milder climate zone. Typical recommendations for exterior walls are R-13 to R-23, while R-30, R-38 and R-49 are common for ceilings and attic spaces. Proper batt insulation must be installed higher and over your ceiling joists or wall studs, this allow for optimal insulating.

Thompson, CT
Dense pack in Niantic
"I had a large somewhat complex blown in cellulose wall insulation project that another contractor left unfinished. Koala was able to get me on their schedule within a couple weeks and complete the full job in 2 days. Everyone was very professional and skilled and from the moment the team showed up, everyone knew what they needed to be doing to complete the project efficiently and correctly. Blown cellulose and holes in drywall make a large mess but the Koala team went so far as to wipe down floors and horizontals with a damp rag after project completion to minimize my cleanup efforts. I received quotes from 2 other contractors in the area for the same project and Koala was the only one that was reasonably priced, the other 2 wanted to charge several thousand dollars more and couldn’t commit to the same aggressive schedule."

Install Solar Fan, Insulation Removal, Batt Insulation Install in Basement and Cellulose in Attic
Highly professional, great attitude and work ethic. Really went above and beyond the call of duty. I was redoing all the insulation in my entire house when they found bats in my attic. Cool, and calm, they did the best they could and went on to another area of my home. Came back another day at no extra charge and finished the job. They also never took up my offer to buy them lunch during their work.I can't recommend enough. Great work by great guys! Thank you again!
