Installation Process
Traditional Insulation
- Adds a layer of loose-fill insulation material to improve your home’s thermal barrier.
- Quick and straightforward process with no additional sealing of cracks or gaps.
- Typically blown in over existing insulation, which may contain potential allergens, mold, dust mites, and signs of rodent activity.
Air Seal & Blown -In Insulation
- We remove all existing old insulation to eliminate contaminants such as dust, mold, allergens, rodent droppings, and debris that could compromise your home’s air quality.
- Removing old insulation also allows us to address hidden air leaks, cracks, and other issues that contribute to energy loss and discomfort.
- Seals cracks, gaps, and other air leakage points in the attic before adding insulation.
- Ensures a comprehensive thermal barrier for better performance and durability.
- Includes a FREE Blower Door Test (valued at $450) to identify and address air leaks.
