At our company, we specialize in providing top-tier cellulose blown-in insulation services, a natural and efficient way to increase the energy efficiency of your home or business. Cellulose insulation is made from recycled paper products, primarily newsprint, and treated with non-toxic borate compounds to resist fire, pests, and mold. This makes it an environmentally friendly choice for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint while enhancing their property's insulation. For over 2 decades, our insulation company has been serving commercial and residential clients across Tallahassee, Wewahitchka and Panama City areas.
Why Choose Cellulose Blown-In Insulation?
Eco-Friendly Solution: Our cellulose insulation is made from up to 85% recycled material, making it one of the most sustainable insulation options available today. By choosing cellulose, you're contributing to a healthier planet.
Superior Energy Efficiency: Cellulose insulation has an excellent ability to fill gaps and voids, creating a tight thermal barrier against heat loss and gain. This results in significant energy savings, as your heating and cooling systems don't have to work as hard to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures.
Noise Reduction: Not only does cellulose blown-in insulation improve your home's energy efficiency, but it also provides outstanding soundproofing qualities. Its dense material effectively reduces noise transmission between rooms and from outside, creating a quieter, more serene living environment.
Fire Resistance: Treated with fire-retardant chemicals, cellulose insulation can provide an increased level of fire resistance. This added protection gives homeowners and business owners peace of mind, knowing their property is safer from the risk of fire spread.
Our Process
Our insulation contractors begin with a comprehensive assessment of your property to determine the best insulation strategy. We consider the unique characteristics of your building, your specific needs, and your budget to provide a tailored solution that delivers maximum performance and value.
Using specialized equipment, our technicians then skillfully blow the cellulose insulation into walls, attics, and crawl spaces. This process allows for the insulation to densely pack into every nook and cranny, eliminating air leaks and creating an effective thermal envelope around your property. We are one of the leading cellulose blown-in insulation companies not just in Tallahassee but also across Florida.
Types of Cellulose Insulation We Provide:
Dry Cellulose Insulation for Retrofitting and New Construction
Dry cellulose is primarily utilized for the retrofitting of older homes, where it is blown into walls through holes drilled at the top. For new constructions, it can be applied into wall cavities using temporary barriers or netting that hold the cellulose in place until it achieves the required density. Although this method can result in up to a 20% settlement, the insulation's R-value remains accurate post-settlement. To combat settling and enhance insulation effectiveness, a dense-pack technique can be employed, compressing the cellulose in the cavities to prevent air voids. This method requires skilled installation to effectively pressurize the cavity and is recognized for its ability to prevent settling entirely, endorsing the dense-pack method as the industry standard for insulating walls, thereby eliminating air movement and heat exchange within the wall cavities.
Wet-Spray Cellulose for New Walls
Wet-spray cellulose is tailored for new constructions, incorporating water and possibly a moisture inhibitor, like chlorine, to thwart mold growth. Occasionally, a small proportion of adhesive is mixed in, or an already present dry adhesive is activated within the cellulose. This approach negates the need for temporary supports during application, ensuring a more uniform insulation layer that effectively seals off air leaks and does not settle over time. Wet-spray applications require a drying period of at least 24 hours, or until the moisture content falls below 25%, before the walls are closed up.
Stabilized Cellulose for Attic/Roof Insulation
Stabilized cellulose, often chosen for attic or roof insulation, includes a minimal amount of water to activate an adhesive, thereby reducing the insulation's tendency to settle and lessening the required volume of cellulose. This method is particularly beneficial for decreasing the weight load on ceiling drywall, preventing sagging. It's especially suited for angled roofs and is certified for use on slopes up to 5:12, offering a reliable insulation solution for complex roofing geometries.
Low-Dust Cellulose for Cleaner Application
The low-dust variety of cellulose insulation addresses the issue of airborne particles during installation, significantly reducing the amount of dust generated. This innovation minimizes the need for protective masks during application, making it a cleaner option for both installers and occupants. This type of cellulose provides an effective solution for those concerned with indoor air quality during and after installation.
