Types of Attic Insulation We Install In Redmond, WA
Attic Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam insulation is made from two types of composite material: polyurethane, and isocyanate, an organic compound made from tweaking the molecular structure of isomeric cyanic acid. When sprayed out of the tip of the spray foam gun, the substance gradually expands, filling in the cracks and crannies of your attic before curing. Spray foam insulation is the most effective material for insulating your Redmond home attic available.
Fiberglass Attic insulation
Fiberglass insulation is usually installed as large segments of insulation that are rolled or laid out onto a surface, such as flooring, attics, ceilings, or in wall cavities.

Cotton insulation is non- toxic, and can be installed without respiratory or skin exposure protection.
