Pella Roofing & Insulation is now offering blow-in cellulose
insulation as one of our product lines. We offer this solution
as an alternative to our other insulations solutions. If you have
any questions about this product or would like a free estimate
please give us a call.
Blow-in Cellulose is a recycled paper product that has been developed
for maximum coverage & R-Value. It is been produced with fire
retardants and is non-allergenic making it an ideal home insulation.
Blowing cellulose gives complete coverage leaving no gaps or areas
un-insulated. Satisfaction Guaranteed!
R-Value Savings are obtained by increasing the insulation in
a building, therefore lowering your heating costs and furnace
wear & tear. Simply put, keeping money in your pocket. Are you
unsure of your current insulation R-Value? Contact Pella Roofing
& Insulation for a Free attic inspection.
- What does R-Value mean, and what are the standards these
days?
R-Value is the ratio of heat transfer through a material. Higher
the R-Value means better insulating quotient it has. For an
example some building codes list R-40 for attics and R-20 for
walls. If a home has an R-Value of 15, cellulose can be blown
in on top of the existing insulation to create the desired R-40
level.
- Is cellulose more expensive than regular pink insulation?
Cellulose is not more expensive than pink insulation and when
installed in attics it provides a better insulation factor since
there are no gaps for air to penetrate.
- Is cellulose harmful to my health or the environment?
Cellulose is a recycled paper product which has been treated
with a fire retardant and is non-allergenic. It is environmentally
friendly as it reuses materials which otherwise would be added
to the land fill sites.
- Is there an optimum season for installing cellulose?
Cellulose can be installed at anytime during the year but is
better done in the spring or fall. The temperature in the attic
at those times is easier to work in and makes the job much more
efficient. Insulation is blown through a hose which has to be
run through a window or door, so to maintain a comfortable temperature
in your home it is advisable to do this work when the temperature
outside is neither too hot nor too cold.
- Will installing cellulose make my house too hot in the
summer?
Installing cellulose will decrease the heating costs in your
home and help to maintain a warmer temperature in the winter
and cooler temperature in the summer.
- Will the installation process create a mess of my home
or business?
Exteriors Unlimited takes pride in doing a job as cleanly and
efficiently as possible. There is dust created from blowing
the insulation but that is kept to a minimum by feeding the
machine out-doors away from the house. The hose which feeds
the insulation is run through the closest window or door to
the attic entrance and drop clothes are placed on the floor
to catch any dust from the process. The area outside used for
the blower is cleaned of all residue and waste prior to leaving
the job site.
