What is Blown-In Home Insulation

Blown-in insulation is a type of insulation material that is installed by blowing it into wall cavities, attics, and other spaces in your home. It offers several benefits, including: 

• Cost Savings: Improved energy efficiency means lower heating and cooling bills. Over time, the cost savings on energy bills can offset the initial installation cost of blown-in insulation, making it a cost-effective choice.
• Quick Installation: The installation of blown-in insulation is relatively quick and straightforward, especially when done by professionals. It can be blown into tight spaces and around obstacles, ensuring more complete coverage.
• Sealing: Blown-in insulation can help seal gaps and cracks in walls and attics, reducing drafts and improving indoor comfort. This also contributes to better indoor air quality by preventing the infiltration of dust, pollen, and outdoor pollutants.
• Sound Reduction: Blown-in insulation can also provide soundproofing benefits by reducing the transmission of noise between rooms or from the outside. This is especially valuable in multi-family housing or homes located in noisy environments.
• Pest Resistance: Blown-in insulation can deter pests like insects and rodents, as it’s difficult for them to nest in the densely packed material.
