Attic Insulation in Spring Lake, NJ
A new customer in Spring Lake, NJ thought that the insulation in his attic had mold on it, so he called our office to inspect further. After a thorough inspection, we didn't find any signs of mold nor any conducive conditions that could potentially lead to mold growth (the insulation was just old and filthy). However, we did notice that the attic was severely under-insulated, which can lead to costly utility bills and fluctuating temperatures throughout the home. After bringing this to the owners' attention, he wanted us to insulate the attic.
When it comes it attic insulation, blown-in cellulose is the best. Blown-in cellulose insulation is used to fill the attic to the recommended insulation levels and this blanket of insulation will create a thermal barrier and help keep the home more comfortable and efficient. Cellulose also has a higher R-value than other insulation and is treated with non-toxic borate, giving it the highest Class-1 fire safety rating and creating incredible resistance to mold and pests.
Once we arrived, we re-inspected the attic, removed the old insulation, and then added 10 inches of TruSoftblown-in cellulose insulation. The result will be a much more efficient and comfortable home!
