Mastering Comfort and Efficiency: Insulation Types

Cellulose Insulation

Cellulose Insulation is plant fiber used in wall and roof cavities to separate the inside and outside of the building thermally and acoustically. It is two to three times denser so it effectively blocks air better than lightweight fiber glass batts. It fills cavities, eliminating voids and gaps, which are common with batt installations that can lead to convective heat loss.

Presently, Ready Refrigeration provides specialized insulation services featuring Cellulose Insulation, enhancing thermal and acoustic performance, ensuring optimal energy efficiency and comfort in your home.

Batt Insulation

Batt Insulation is one of the common types of insulation used. It comes in the form of pre-cut rock or fiberglass. Batt insulation can be used to insulate floors, walls, ceilings and attics. More often, it is used to fit between the framing of the home. Batts are sold in a variety of R-values. They are also manufactured in different sizes for easy transportation.

Batts is the most comfortable and cheapest way to insulate new walls. However, they are often poorly installed leaving small gaps. This reduces the efficiency of insulation to as much as 25%.

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray Foam Insulation is one of the insulating materials that you can use to seal your home from air and moisture intrusion, save on costly utility bills. Spray Foam Insulation delivers comprehensive benefits, halting air and moisture infiltration for enhanced comfort. It promotes energy efficiency, fortifies the building structure, and offers a permanent, non-sagging solution. Additionally, it keeps out dust and pollen, reduces HVAC equipment wear, and is certified for superior air and vapor control.
