Yes, blow-in insulation often uses recycled materials and helps reduce energy consumption, making it an eco-friendly choice for homeowners.
How often should insulation be replaced?
Insulation typically lasts 15 to 20 years, but it may need replacement sooner if it becomes damaged or if you notice increased energy bills or drafts.
Can I install blow-in insulation myself?
While DIY installation is possible, professional installation ensures optimal coverage and efficiency, reducing the risk of gaps or uneven distribution.
What are the benefits of blow-in insulation over other types?
Blow-in insulation provides better coverage, fills hard-to-reach areas, and is generally quicker to install compared to traditional batt insulation.

What maintenance does blow-in insulation require?
Blow-in insulation requires minimal maintenance. Regular inspections can help ensure it remains effective and identify any areas needing attention.
