Why Insulate?
Cool in Summer and Warm in Winter
Heat moves into, out of and through your home in four ways: by conduction (which R-Value measures), and by convection, radiation and air infiltration (none of which R-Value measures).
A superior insulation system will have a high R-Value (prevent heat transfer via conduction), will be pneumatically or spray applied, fully filling the building cavity (preventing heat loss via convection), and will be densely packed (preventing heat loss via air infiltration and radiation). Cellulose insulation meets all four of these critical performance criteria!
Sound Control
Insulation provides more effective sound control than drywall alone. If you’ve ever been in a building that had little or no insulation, you probably noticed that you heard a lot more noise from outside than in a well-insulated building. This is because the sound transmission coefficient (STC) of an insulated building is lower. The STC is a calculation of the acoustic performance of a wall or ceiling, and a higher number is better than a lower number.
Cellulose Insulation is an excellent sound proofing insulation product for homes and all types of buildings.
