Blown-In Wall Insulation Systems in York, PA
If you’re looking for a high performing wall insulation system for use in new home construction or a remodeling project, the blown-in wall system may be your solution.
Installing fiberglass batt insulation in an open wall cavity can leave gaps between the insulation and wall studs. This can compromise thermal resistance by allowing air to move behind batts. Blown-in wall insulation resolves this issue by providing a seamless, thermally efficient blanket that completely fills any void in a wall cavity.
At Liberty Insulation in York, PA, we provide reliable, effective blown-in wall insulation services to provide thorough thermal protection for your home or business. Our experienced technicians provide expert installation and ensure the spaces are entirely filled for maximum protection. We have been blowing in wall insulation in Pennsylvania for many years and make it our priority to provide the highest quality products and service to our customers.
What Is Blown-In Wall Insulation?
Batts of fiberglass insulation have long been the standby for insulation products. While fiberglass rolls or batts are an effective form of insulation, they have the potential to leave gaps between the insulation and wall studs.
With the blown-in wall system, loose-fill fiberglass insulation is densely packed into the wall cavity behind a layer of plastic. This fully fills the wall cavity and increases its energy savings potential. This system can be taken one step further by air sealing the wall cavity before installing insulation.
Why You May Need Blown-In Insulation
Blown-in wall insulation can be used in a wide variety of applications, including exterior wall insulation and interior wall insulation, but one of the most beneficial uses is when dealing with existing walls that are already closed. During the construction of a home or business or during an extensive remodel, it can be easy to add fiberglass batt insulation while the walls are open. Once they are closed, adding fiberglass batt insulation is not a viable option. Blown-in fiberglass insulation offers the option of blowing insulation into existing walls to fill the space by blowing in fibers through a small hole, easily adding R-value to walls. Blown-in insulation is also ideal for insulating attics because it settles in easily around obstructions and thoroughly fills the necessary space.
Benefits of Blown-In Wall Insulation
In addition to an easy, unobtrusive installation process, blown-in insulation has a wide range of benefits that may make it the right choice for your next fiberglass insulation project. Some of the main benefits include:
- Energy efficiency: Blown-in wall insulation does a better job of filling in spaces and gaps than rolled batting and creates a larger insulation blanket to help reduce energy loss. That energy efficiency can, in turn, translate to lower utility bills and a more comfortable home.
- Noise reduction: In line with its ability to increase R-value, blown-in insulation can provide almost soundproof wall insulation by decreasing sound bleed and helping to reduce noise that travels through your walls or down from the attic during a rainstorm.
If you need to upgrade fiberglass insulation in your walls or attic or need insulation for a new home or business, our experienced technicians can help determine if blown-in insulation is the right choice for you.
