What is a Cellulose Insulation?
Cellulose Insulation is an excellent choice for energy efficiency, offering a high R-value for maximum insulation performance.
Treated for fire resistance, mold prevention, and pest control, cellulose is also an eco-friendly option, made from recycled materials. Whether your structure is new or existing, our team will guide you in selecting the most cost-effective, minimally invasive insulation solutions to meet your needs.
Benefits of Cellulose Insulation in NH
Cellulose Insulation is a highly effective solution for maintaining a comfortable and healthy home year-round. Here are the key benefits:
- Year-Round Comfort:
Cellulose insulation helps keep your home cozy in the winter by blocking cold drafts and reducing heat loss. In the summer, it helps keep your space cool by minimizing solar heat gain, reducing the need for excessive air conditioning.
- Energy Efficiency:
By minimizing air leaks and drafts, cellulose insulation improves your home’s energy efficiency, lowering heating and cooling costs.
- Air Quality Improvement:
Cellulose insulation acts as a barrier against airborne pollutants such as mold spores, dust, and allergens, helping to maintain a healthier indoor environment.
- Environmentally Friendly:
Made from recycled paper products, cellulose insulation is an eco-friendly option, contributing to sustainable building practices and reducing the amount of waste in landfills.
- Sound Insulation:
The dense, fibrous nature of cellulose insulation provides excellent soundproofing, reducing noise between rooms and from outside, creating a quieter, more peaceful home.
- Pest Deterrent:
Cellulose insulation is often treated with non-toxic insect repellent, helping to prevent pests like rodents from nesting in your walls.
Downsides of Cellulose Insulation in NH
- Lower R-Value per Inch:
Cellulose insulation has a lower R-value (thermal resistance) per inch than spray foam, meaning it may require a thicker layer to achieve the same level of insulation, which can take up more space in walls or attics.
- Air Barrier:
While cellulose provides good thermal insulation, it does not form an airtight seal like spray foam. Spray foam expands on application, filling gaps and cracks to prevent air leaks, whereas cellulose may still leave small spaces where air can pass through.
- Moisture Sensitivity:
Cellulose is more susceptible to moisture than spray foam. If it becomes wet, it can lose its insulating properties and may develop mold or mildew. Spray foam, on the other hand, is moisture-resistant and maintains its effectiveness even in humid conditions.
- Settling Over Time:
Cellulose can settle over time, potentially reducing its effectiveness and requiring reapplication or topping up in certain areas. Spray foam maintains its volume and insulation performance for much longer without settling.
