If you are in search of how to Use an Insulation Blowing Machine, you are here at the right place.

The preparation of the blowing machine:

Naturally, you cannot isolate if you do not have an insulated snow blower. Cool insulation blowing machines are essential for the attic insulation by blowing.

You will have to prepare your machine to ensure its effectiveness:

  • An electric blower can be left outside the house which limits noise and indoor projection during construction.
  • Integrate the short casing into the entrance of the machine. This part will allow sucking the flake insulation (this is why the casing does not need to be long).
  • Integrate the long tubing into the output of the machine. This tube will be directed to the attic and allow to blow your insulation.
  • After putting on all your protective equipment, open your bags of insulation and prepare them for blowing by introducing them into the basket provided for this purpose. Peel the insulation wool well; so that it forms flakes and not a clod otherwise it could block the pipes. The gloves, the mask, and the glasses are essential for this operation.

Before using any cellulose insulation blowers, always read its instruction manual. The latter contains all the warnings and instructions for use that must be known for such work.

Blow insulation:

To start blowing into your attic, it is important to work in pairs:

  • A person will be in the attic, to take care of the blowing,
  • While the other will be outside, to feed the machine to blow.
  • Both people should wear protective clothing, so as to avoid irritation.
  • If the insulation gets stuck with the years, you'll just need to blow insulation again to improve the insulation of the attic. It's that simple.

Before isolating, the points to consider:

There is nothing better than going to professionals for a diagnosis of the building and heating systems if you feel that your bill of oil, gas, electricity or wood will be salted this winter. The indoor temperature is higher than the outside temperature. The heat provided by your heating system dissipates to the outside after warming your home: it is the heat loss of housing. The purpose of insulation is to limit them.

From roof to floor: limiting heat loss:

It is first necessary to properly isolate your home using fiberglass insulation blowers before thinking about the heating mode. Good insulation can save you up to 40% of your energy bill.

It has identified the various places in the house where the biggest "leaks" of heat are deplored. In a single-family house, the percentages of heat loss are approximate: 30% at the roof, 25% for the walls, 20% for the windows, 7% at the floor level and 5% for the thermal bridges.

About us:- Insulation can be envisaged on all the elements of the construction of your house: at the level of the roof spaces, glass walls, walls by the interior, walls by the outside and floors.
