Spray foam benefits for attic insulation

Spray foam was used for a lot of years as insulation for homes. Because it has a high thermal resistance it can be thinner than other insulation materials. What is important to know is that spray foam can be of two types: closed cell (denser and more efficient) or open cell (lighter and cheaper). Here is a list of benefits of spray foam insulation:

• is  continuous and it reduce the risk of leaks formation
• has a high R-value
• is applied really fast
• warranty over 20 years

Blow-in insulation benefits for attic insulation

Blow-in insulation is also a popular choice when it comes to attic insulation. It is mainly made from cellulose and is a more natural and ecological way of insulation. The insulation can be applied directly on the surface or it can be contained in a  special membrane that protects the cellulose in time. Because it is a breathable insulation material, it makes a good team with the wood. If you choose this type of insulation you get:

• an eco-friendly and recyclable material
• high fire resistance
• fills all the gaps
• high thermal resistance
