Shell

Find out how properly installed wall insulation increases energy efficiency, comfort, house tightness, and soundproofing. Learn how voltage to the insulation blower and the correct amount of air help achieve a “dense pack.” Understand how installation practices can increase the ability of a contractor or crew to address key building junctures and reduce thermal defects.

By attending this session, participants will

1. Understand that well-functioning equipment is critical to blowing cavity insulation
2. Learn how tubing can avoid insulation voids
3. Recognize building features that contribute to thermal defects often missed by conventional insulation measures
