Insulating a wall with blown in insulation before wallboard is installed

The most common way to insulate walls without insulation. However sometimes homeowners are looking for something a little more dense that is going to give them a little bit tighter insulation. In that case it makes sense to apply a breathable fabric over the walls and use a blown in insulation to fill every single cavity. This illuminates the possibility that small voids will exist that can allow energy to be lost and can make your home cold in the winter. Optimize your insulation in your walls with this technique. If you do not have an access to an industrial blower, contact a professional who is familiar with this process. In this video we used L 77 which is a long fiber fiberglass. It is less susceptible to settling and gives you a great R-value. The fabric allows air from the blower to escape while keeping the insulation tight in the cavity. Areas that it is not possible to use this technique In were spray foamed. #insulation #Buildingsciences #efficiency #fiberglass #krendl
