Nu-Wool Wallseal insulation installed by WarmTech Solutions was used in the exterior walls and roof of the house. Wallseal cellulose insulation is a low moisture spray on densepack application. Wallseal cellulose has an effective
R-Value, which provides up to 40% savings to heating and cooling costs over traditional insulation while providing comfort and sound control for the home.
Nu-Wool cellulose is manufactured from 85% recycled newsprint and 15% borate making it a safe fire retardant. It’s also an EPA registered fungicide prohibiting the growth of mold and mildew and is pest and rodent resistant

Between floors we used batt insulation that has low formaldehyde content.  Formaldehyde is thought to cause cancer. 

By using WarmTech Solutions insulation system, we created a very tight envelope at a reasonable cost while using a very sustainable product.  The insulator will perform a blower door test prior to drywall and at the end of the project to ensure tightness of the building envelope.
