If there’s one material that we think is best for attic insulation in Toronto, it’s blown-in insulation. Not only is it really swift and simple to install, but it also provides excellent R-values and can be added on top of existing insulation to bring your home up to code. If you find that you had to put on woolly socks and sweaters to stay warm this winter, blown-in insulation might be just what your home needs.
Blown-in insulation is made in several different materials, from fibreglass to mineral wool — but in our opinion, the best attic insulation material is cellulose.
But what is cellulose? It’s not a new plastic or man-made material, but the building block of all plant life on earth. When it comes to insulation, blown-in cellulose is made from shredded post-consumer paper products like cardboard boxes, diverting materials from the landfill and helping to green our planet.
There are many rooms where blown-in cellulose can improve your home’s insulating capability. EcoComfort can install cellulose insulation in wall cavities or underneath flooring, but the best place by far is the attic, where it can be added on top of existing insulation and offers excellent coverage that is almost impossible to achieve with batt-style insulation.
New attic insulation in Toronto is a cost-effective and easy way to make your home more comfortable year-round. We’re happy to answer any of your attic insulation or blown-in cellulose related questions — just reach out to us online or by phone, and one of our technicians would be happy to help.
