        The seamless seal provided by cellulose insulation is an unbeatable blocker

        of air and sound infiltration, which is a huge comfort factor to consider when

        looking at insulation options.

 

        Field tests have proven that a cellulose seal is 36% tighter than that of a

        fiberglass seal, which means the outside elements - be it weather or noise -

        have a tough time flowing into and throughout the building.

 

        In 2005, The Conservation Services Group in Massachusetts conducted a

        study on air tightness in single and multi-family homes that had Energy Star

        approval ratings. There was two test groups, one for wall insulation and one

        for ceiling/roof insulation. The results showed homes using cellulose were

        significantly tighter than those using fiberglass.
