The Benefits of Blown-In Insulation for Your Home | Koala Insulation o
We offer a variety of insulation materials to homeowners and commercial property owners in the Arlington community. Each type of insulation brings with it different benefits and shines in different ways.
One of the insulation materials that has a wide variety of uses and applications is blown-in insulation, and we explain more about this efficient form of insulation below.
Blown-In Insulation 101
Blown-in insulation is made out of cellulose or fiberglass that is left in a loose fill material rather than woven into sheets. Fiberglass is made out of little fibers of glass that have been melted down and spun into small pieces.
Cellulose is made up of recycled paper, newspaper and cardboard. Since both materials have such a high recycled content, they are considered to be very eco-friendly options.
This type of insulation is left as a loose material, which is a great option for covering large areas quickly. It can be blown out of our long tubes straight onto your attic floor or basement and can offer complete coverage quickly.
Blown-In Insulation for Your Walls
If your home is already finished and you have been living in it for a while, you might consider updating your insulation. However, you don’t want to tear down your drywall in order to do so!
That’s where blown-in insulation can come in. It can be added to your existing walls without having to completely remodel your entire home.
We use a method called “drill and fill,” where we identify spots along your walls between the studs that we can drill holes into and insert our tubes. From there, we can blow the material directly into your wall and fill it up for you! Once the entire space is finished, we patch the holes and you are all set.
Keeping Fire at Bay
No one wants to think about suffering a house or business fire. Not only can the situation be dangerous for your family or employees, it can also cause widespread devastation. The good news is that you can use your insulation to your advantage to reduce your risk of a widespread fire.
Fiberglass is naturally fire-resistant due to its high glass content. It can help prevent a fire from spreading quickly and it avoids becoming fuel to a growing fire.
Cellulose is also fire-resistant due to its dense structure and added fire retardants. Both materials can help you snuff out a flame or prevent one from growing!
