When most people hear the term “insulation,” they probably picture those long strips of fiberglass insulation that can be found in many homes. But now there’s a better choice: blown-in insulation. Not only does it have a better R-value than fiberglass insulation, which is the measuring standard for how well a material insulates, but it also does not have limitations when it’s retrofitted like fiberglass insulation often does. If you’re conscious of the environment, blown insulation is a great choice, as it’s made from recycled paper and wood products. Few synthetic materials or processes are involved in production. Simply put, insulating your home with blown insulation rather than fiberglass will keep it warmer during the winter and cooler during the summer! Without proper insulation, you may as well just open the windows while running your heat or air conditioning – that’s how much energy you’re wasting! Blown insulation will make your home more energy-efficient, and will lower your bills.
