Blown-In Cellulose

What is Blown-In Cellulose Insulation?

Blown-in cellulose insulation is a loose-fill insulation material known for its ability to conform to various spaces, making it an effective solution for improving energy efficiency in homes and businesses.

Made primarily from recycled paper products, such as wood fibers and corncob-based materials, blown-in cellulose is an eco-friendly insulation choice that helps reduce waste while providing excellent thermal resistance.

What are the Benefits of Blown-In Cellulose?

Blown-in cellulose insulation offers numerous advantages, making it a popular choice for homeowners and business owners alike:

• Ideal for Hard-to-Reach Spaces – This insulation conforms around obstacles and fills in small gaps, making it an excellent choice for attics, wall cavities, and irregularly shaped spaces.
• Energy Efficiency & Cost Savings – With an R-value of approximately 3.5 per inch, blown-in cellulose provides strong thermal resistance, helping to reduce heating and cooling costs.
• Affordable & Effective – Compared to other insulation options, blown-in cellulose is a budget-friendly yet highly efficient choice.
• Great for Existing Walls – If you have an older home with poor insulation, blown-in cellulose can be added without requiring extensive renovations or tearing down walls.
• Long-Lasting Performance – Blown-in cellulose insulation lasts between 20 to 30 years, maintaining its effectiveness over time.
• Eco-Friendly & Sustainable – Made from recycled materials, this insulation option is an environmentally responsible choice for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint.

Best Applications for Blown-In Cellulose

Blown-in cellulose insulation is highly versatile and can be used in various applications, including:

• Attics – One of the most common uses for blown-in cellulose. It provides a seamless, uniform layer of insulation that reduces energy loss through the roof.
• Walls (Existing & New Construction) – Perfect for retrofitting older homes or adding insulation to new builds, as it can be injected into walls without major construction work.
• Floors & Crawl Spaces – Helps prevent heat loss and improves comfort, especially in multi-story buildings.
• Cathedral Ceilings – Offers a consistent thermal barrier to prevent heat from escaping through the ceiling.
• Commercial Buildings – Ideal for office spaces, warehouses, and retail buildings needing an effective insulation upgrade.

5 Things to Know About Blown-In Cellulose Insulation

Considering your options for new insulation, and wondering if blown-in cellulose is right for your home? You have probably heard of it, but don’t know enough about cellulose to know if it is the right fit for your needs. Here are five things to know about blown-in cellulose that will help you in your insulation decision making process!

Easily Fill Between Existing Wall & Ceiling Joists

Because blown-in cellulose is a loose-fill insulation, it is perfect for “topping off” or filling between existing wall and ceiling joists. This type of insulation is known for being cost effective as well as easy to install, saving you time and money.

Blown-in Cellulose is Eco-Friendly

If you are eco-aware, then cellulose may really appeal to you. Derived from plant based material, cellulose insulation is made from recycled paper products such as newspapers and cardboard that is finely shredded. This is what makes it fluffy yet easy to fill those pesky gaps and leaky areas.

Fire-Retardant Properties

When it comes to you and your family’s safety, blown-in cellulose may be the perfect choice. This insulation is chemically treated to be both mold resistant and fire retardant. Cellulose has excellent fire retardant properties. Compared to other materials it has proven to be up to 50% more fire retardant due to its ability to limit oxygen.

Blown-In Cellulose Reduces Noise

In addition to its ability to fill gaps and leaks effectively, as well as increased energy efficiency, you get an added bonus! Blown-in Cellulose insulation when properly installed will reduce noise between the inside and outside. The overall picture once your insulation is done is that your home will be much more comfortable.

Ideal for Older Homes

Today’s new homes have to meet a set standard for insulation. Older homes however, may be under-insulated as they were built before these codes were in place. Cellulose insulation can be used to replace or supplement current insulation to provide the additional energy savings and coziness that the home lacks.
