Cellulose Insulation
Proper cellulose insulation helps you save money on heating and provides a comfortable and healthy living space. Celluloseman, Inc. provides loose-fill blown-in and spray foam insulation installation across the GTA. We also offer insulation upgrade or top-up to meet the R values required by the provincial building codes.
Cellulose insulation offers the following advantages:
- It is a safer, cheaper, more efficient and longer-lasting alternative than most other residential insulation products
- Cellulose is a green, non-toxic material
- On top of managing a constant temperature, it manages moisture and blocks sound.

Blown in Cellulose Insulation
Often, some old homes unlike recent homes, require insulation as they are under-insulated. Many homeowners would need their furnace working for a long time to keep the home warm. The current building codes demand a minimum amount of insulation considering attics and walls. As the old homes juxtapose in this aspect, Blown-in insulation works the best. The micro materials of blown-in insulation cover up the edges and corners of your home.
Cellulose applications:
- For new or retrofit residential and commercial construction.
- Applied through spraying (blowing) or in loose-fill form.
- It can be installed beneath walls for both thermal and acoustic purposes.
- It can be injected in closed cavities
- Blows well and particularly effective in awkward or hard-to-get areas and edges.
Cellulose insulation facts:
- Reduces air leakage and provides more resistance to air movement than any other loose-fill insulation
- Most fire-resistant insulation, treated with fire retardants to meet all safety requirements and regulations.
- No harmful emissions after installation and while drying.
- Cellulose is the only insulation that actually manages moisture.
- It is affordable.
Spray-Foam Insulation
Spray polyurethane, or SPF is foam that expands when it hits the surface, eventually hardens into a virtually impenetrable barrier that blocks moisture, air, and sound. Some benefits of this type of insulation include:
- SPF makes it nearly impossible for small pests and insects to burrow into your home
- The foam is capable of filling the tiniest of cracks
- Perfect for soundproofing
- Open-cell SPF is ideal for attics and basements, while denser closed-cell foam is perfect for crawlspaces
- Cost-effective and durable
Attic, Basement and Wall Insulation
Insulation in walls not only keeps indoor temperatures comfortable and consistent – it also creates a barrier to sound, preventing noise from travelling between rooms. Proper attic insulation, basement insulation and wall insulation can make a huge difference, and Celluloseman is the company to call. We have the expertise and extensive experience in installing a variety of insulation types, including blown in cellulose insulation, blown in fiberglass insulation and spray foam insulation.
