AttiCat
What is AttiCat
Instead of laying batts or rolls, our AttiCat®Insulation Blowing Machine conditions the AttiCat® Expanding Blown-In PINK® Fiberglas™ Insulation by fluffing it along the length of the hose, adding millions of the tiny air pockets that give the material its insulating power. Because Fiberglas™insulation will not settle, it will maintain the same energy-saving level over time, keeping your home comfortable for years to come.
Why insulate?
As everyone knows, heat rises and cold air escapes. When the lower part of your house is nice and warm because your furnace is chugging away, the warm air is wafting up, up and away, into the attic and out the roof. Experts agree that the attic is arguably the greatest single heat loser in the home. The only way to prevent this is to insulate. The beauty of good attic insulation is that it will also prevent cool air from escaping in the summer (when your air conditioner is chugging away).
Installation
We blow in the insulation to bring your attic up to R-38. We utilize rafter mates for proper ventilation as needed and install paper rulers at various points in the attic to insure proper depth. The machine is placed outside the home and is blown through a hose up into your attic, insuring a "mess free" process.
