Cellulose Insulation Installation
What Is It?
Cellulose insulation is one of the most effective and environmentally friendly ways to improve your home’s energy efficiency. Made from recycled paper products treated for fire and pest resistance, cellulose is blown into wall cavities, attics, and other spaces to create a dense thermal barrier.
At REAP, we install cellulose insulation as part of our energy efficiency upgrades, helping New York homeowners improve comfort, reduce energy waste, and qualify for NYSERDA Comfort Home Program incentives.
Why It Matters
Energy Savings: Proper insulation is one of the most cost-effective ways to lower heating and cooling bills.
Comfort: Helps keep your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer by reducing drafts and temperature fluctuations.
Noise Reduction: Dense cellulose material naturally reduces sound transfer between rooms and from outside.
Eco-Friendly: Made from up to 85% recycled content, cellulose insulation is a sustainable choice.
Moisture & Fire Resistant: Treated with borates for fire resistance and to deter pests and mold.
Program Eligibility: Insulation upgrades may qualify for NYSERDA rebates and low-interest financing.
How It Works
Assessment
Our certified energy auditors evaluate your home’s current insulation levels and identify areas where energy is being lost.
Preparation
Access points are created in attics, walls, or crawlspaces. Any necessary air sealing is performed first to maximize results.
Installation
Using specialized equipment, cellulose insulation is blown into cavities, filling gaps and creating a seamless thermal layer.
Verification
A post-installation inspection, and sometimes a blower door test, ensures the insulation is performing as expected.
