Minneapolis Insulation Company Advises Consumers on the Benefits of Different Types of Insulation

MINNEAPOLIS - April 28, 2022 - PRLog -- While most people know there are several different types of insulation, not many are familiar with their many differences. Fiberglass, cellulose, spray foam are the most popular types of insulation but which is best? As the trusted name in home insulation for the Twin Cities, Lewis Insulation would like to compare and contrast the different options in insulation to help area homeowners choose the right one for their unique homes.

Of the three most popular types of insulation, fiberglass has been around the longest is more commonly used. Fiberglass is man made and can be installed in both new and existing homes, garages, attics and more. It is non-combustible, non-corrosive & non absorbent. If exposed to moisture, fiberglass will not hold water.

Closed cell polyurethane spray foam insulation is one of the most advanced insulating materials available on the market today. We use state of the art equipment & have completed certified training & continued education on spraying polyurethane spray foam. It offers the highest R-value over all other insulation materials. JM Corbond III offers a true R-7 per inch.

Cellulose insulation is considered a greener material than fiberglass and being made of paper, does not pose any health issues to the installer or home occupants.

Cellulose insulation is also chemically treated to resist fire, insects and mold. It has a better resistance to air flow and prevents the upward movement of air caused by temperature differences. The R-value of cellulose insulation actually improves during cold weather.
