Thar She Blows! *Attic Insulation*


The insulation was blown into the attic last week as Rick and his crew prepare for drywall installation next week. The cellulose insulation expands as they apply it to the underside of the roof as part of the envelope construction which supports the energy efficiency of the home by sealing the entire structure. It makes for more storage space in a heated and cooled attic, but more importantly, it keeps outdoor air pollution from being brought into the home through traditional attic vents. It looks pretty cool too!
