Dense-Pack Wall & Ceiling Insulation IN DOUBLE STUD WALLS OFFERS HIGH PERFORMANCE!

In 2005, Ontario designed and built Canada’s first Energy Star labelled home in Canada. This home was built with dense-packed (or dense-blown) cellulose as the wall insulation of choice. Their intent was to produce a better built home with the goal of creating “a proper balance between additional efficiency and price such that it would be attractive to future clients”.

Dense packing walls typically results in remarkable performance in the walls.

One of the most effective ways of dealing with existing uninsulated frame walls is to blow cellulose into the wall cavities. It is a popular and time-proven method of retrofitting insulation and is cost effective option for all houses. It is popular for good reason; it works very well.

Dense-Pack Wall & Ceiling Insulation does not eliminate the need for an air barrier in new construction. But in retrofit applications we often get so close that we can typically live without one. Besides, there are no other practical alternatives short of completely reconstructing the wall assembly. So “rock on” and dense pack walls. The approach is practical and cost effective.

The insulating value of cellulose is comparable to that of fiberglass batts; however, because cellulose is more resistant to airflow than fiberglass, it performs better. In a closed cavity, cellulose should be installed by the dense-pack method — that is, to a density of at least 3-1/2 lb. per cu. ft. When cellulose is installed in an existing building with empty stud cavities, it is usually blown through holes drilled in the exterior sheathing. This work typically requires the temporary removal of some of the building’s siding.

Wall Insulation – Don’t let your neighbors hear you!
Cellulose Is 80% Sound Proof Material which is Used for creating prefect sound barrier between floors or walls within different existing units in a residential/commercial building.

Cavities in a new home can be insulated using one of four methods:

  1. Damp-spray cellulose—a mixture of cellulose insulation and water—can be sprayed into the open wall cavities before drywall is installed.
  2. Dry cellulose can be installed through holes in air-permeable netting that has been stapled and sometimes glued over the interior face of the studs (photo left).
  3. Dry cellulose can be installed through gaps in the interior drywall.
  4. Dry cellulose can be installed through holes in rigid-foam insulation that has been installed on the interior side of studs or rafters.

Cavities in an old home can be insulated using one of two methods:

  • Dry cellulose can be installed through gaps in the interior drywall.
  • Dry cellulose can be installed through holes in rigid-surface like Plaster or Drywall that has been installed on the interior side of studs or rafters.

WHAT KIND OF ATTIC INSULATION IS BEST FOR MY ATTIC?

Blown-in cellulose insulation
There is only one type of Attic insulation we recommend to best protect your attic: blown-in cellulose. With excellent coverage, high R-value, and superior density, blown-in cellulose insulation effectively blocks our air leaks and improves home air temperature.

The benefits of installing blown in cellulose insulation
Blown-in cellulose insulation is one of the most commonly used building material products. It’s been around for some 70 years, and has gained popularity because it works so well. The product itself is derived from the cellulose in plants, and is commonly manufactured by incorporating recycled paper. It’s considered eco-friendly, and many homeowners prefer it to other insulation products.

Thermal Performance
Blown-in cellulose compares very favorably with other types of insulation, and is very effective in augmenting the existing R-Value of any insulation that has been already installed. As long as the existing insulation is clean, dry, and uncontaminated, blown insulation can be used to “top up”.

Effective Coverage
Blown-in cellulose is excellent for insulating “hard-to-reach” spaces. In the attic and roof cavity, where there are many limited access areas, blown-in cellulose provides very effective coverage. When professionally installed, the material fills cavities and spaces better than batt insulation.

Fire Resistance
Cellulose insulation is chemically treated to be fire resistant. The makeup of the product limits oxygen availability, and therefore prevents the spread of fire. In fact, cellulose insulation does particularly well in fire demonstration testing (up to 50% more resistant than other materials).

Cost Effective Install
Because blown-in cellulose is a straightforward installation, it requires less time and manpower than other products. When professionally installed by an experienced team, blown-in cellulose is a very cost effective option, with lower installation costs than many other insulation products.

Long Term Benefits
Unlike other home renovations, insulation has long-term benefits. Homeowners benefit from years of improved energy efficiency, as well as cost savings on heating and air conditioning. Home insulation delivers a better return-on-investment than most other home improvements.

Clean and Non-Toxic
Blown-in cellulose insulation contains NO asbestos, NO formaldehyde, and NO toxic chemicals.
In manufacturing, the material is treated with boric acid (antiseptic and insecticide) and thus provides insect repellency and mold resistance. It’s an ideal installation for the attic and roof.
