When it comes to insulating your Oklahoma home for maximum comfort and energy savings, cellulose is an excellent option. As a blown-in or loose-fill insulation, cellulose provides superior coverage and insulating performance. At Affordable Insulation of Oklahoma, we frequently recommend cellulose for its many advantages:
Safe and Non-Irritating
Made from up to 85% recycled newspaper, cellulose insulation is soft to the touch and won’t irritate skin like fiberglass can. While protective gear is still advised, you don’t have to worry about itchy rashes.
Fire Resistant
Despite being made of paper materials, cellulose insulation is actually highly fire-resistant thanks to additives like boric acid during manufacturing.
Mold and Pest Control
That boric acid additive provides more than just fire protection. It also inhibits mold growth and deters pests from nesting in the insulation.
Excellent Thermal Performance
With an insulation R-value of approximately R-3.4 per inch, cellulose offers one of the highest thermal resistance ratings among blown-in insulation products. It significantly slows heat transfer into and out of your home.
Reduced Thermal Bridging
Cellulose insulation can get into nooks and crannies that batt insulation can’t, minimizing thermal bridging through framing components.
Noise Reduction
When densely packed, cellulose insulation absorbs sound waves to reduce exterior noise transmission into living spaces.
Cost-Effective Insulation
As a loose-fill product made from recycled materials, cellulose insulation provides a cost-effective way to insulate all areas of new construction and existing homes alike.
