Insulation
Simply put, Insulating your home provides resistance to heat flow. As a result, your house is warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. When your home is properly insulated, your home's heating and air-conditioning units can function more efficiently, reducing your energy costs and improving your comfort.
Conversely, when your insulation begins to deteriorate and compress over time, it creates air leakage and the resistance to heat flow decreases. You begin to lose your conditioned air and your HVAC systems have to work harder to compensate. This results in wasted energy and wasted money.
Blown-In or Spray-Applied Cellulose
Sanctuary by Greenfiber®
Cellulose is derived from nature. Actually, it’s made from paper (think wood pulp). Recycled paper (like newspaper) is first shredded and then treated with a unique formula to create our cellulose insulation. There’s a lot of paper out there, and we work hard to secure the best sources. If you’ve ever wondered what becomes of recycled paper, now you know
More Reasons to Consider Cellulose
1. Superior Noise Suppression - Because of its density, cellulose can reduce sound power by up to 60%.
2. Works Efficiently - Cellulose is denser and has better resistance to airflow than fiberglass.
3. Ease of Use - Cellulose is easy to install. It can be blown into small, restricted spaces and installed over existing insulation.
4. Environmentally Responsible - By using recycled materials, low-energy manufacturing, and short-haul transportation, Greenfiber® gives you an environmentally responsible choice.
5. Low-Energy Manufacturing - Greenfiber® insulation uses just one-fifth of the energy that is used to make competing insulation products.
6. Quality & Sophistication - Cellulose has improved over time, it now provides exceptional resistance to fire and moisture in addition to superior thermal and sound insulation.
Closed-Cell Insulation
Exterior and Interior Application
by Huntsman Building Solutions
Closed-cell spray foam insulation outperforms traditional insulation by providing an air, water and vapor barrier in a single component. Spray foam insulation adheres to most surfaces and expands to create a seamless, airtight building envelope. In addition, it offers outstanding high-performance options for commercial, residential, institutional, industrial or agricultural applications.
More Reasons to Consider Closed-cell Insulation
1. Sustainability - Spray foam insulation is a sustainable component of a high-performance home with benefits you simply can’t achieve with traditional insulation.
Huntsman spray foams are made with recycled plastic.
2. Works Efficiently - Up to a 50% reduction in heating and cooling costs per year
3. Ease of Use - Spray foam is an industry-leading building solution that seals and insulates in one application
4. Vapor and Moisture Barrier - Closed-cell spray foam creates an excellent vapor and moisture barrier in one application.
5. Health and Safety - Spray foam can minimize the amount of dust, allergens, and outdoor noise from entering the home. It also creates a barrier from harmful soil gases.
Open-Cell Insulation
Interior Application
by Huntsman Building Solutions
Open-cell spray foam delivers a superior air barrier to traditional insulation in walls, floors, attics, etc. Spray Foam insulation will adhere to most construction surfaces and expand to create an airtight building envelope. HBS pioneered the development of open-cell spray foam insulation through innovative technology and is now internationally prevalent as mainstream insulation.
