This home that we insulated had 1.9 A.C.H (air changes per hour). That means that the HVAC unit only has to run about 2 times per hour to maintain the temperature of the home.
Fiberglass insulated homes are generally 4.5 TO 6 A.C.H.
Sprayed cellulose is, at most, 2x cheaper than closed cell spray foam. Sprayed cellulose is also better at sound Attenuation, fire retardation, resisting bugs and rodents, and has about the same resistance to air infiltration.
Fiberglass insulation does not even come close in any of the performance categories listed above. Fiberglass is like a filter made of tiny glass particles. It let's the air pass right through it along with the glass particles being spread through the home.
Anyone who has ever picked up a piece of fiberglass insulation has noticed the glass dust particles that are instantly air born as it is handled, as well as how it irritates the skin.
When insulating with closed cell foam, the installer either over fills the cavity and shaves it down, or underfills the cavity leaving dead air space that can sweat, allow fire to pass through, and let rodents pass through. When over filing, there is a lot of waste that the customer needs to pay for.
Cellulose spray insulation is installed so that it always completely fills the wall cavity out to the edge of the wall and makes contact with the drywall. Sprayed cellulose does not settle, because of the density in which it is installed, it does not have allowance for settling.
The difference in cost between fiberglass to sprayed cellulose is quickly recovered in energy savings.
Sprayed cellulose is a product that pays for itself quickly and creates life-long savings in your home.
