The AttiCat® Insulation Blowing Machine Installs Insulation Faster
Insulating your attic the traditional way can be an arduous process. It’s a time-sink, and you know it can get itchy! But the payoff of greater energy efficiency is worth it. Finally, Owens Corning has found a way to insulate faster, while maintaining or even increasing the energy efficiency of the insulation with the AttiCat® Insulation Blowing Machine!
The Insulation Blowing Machine conditions the AttiCat® Expanding Blown-In PINK Fiberglas™ Insulation by breaking it up and fluffing it.
This process adds millions of very small air pockets, which makes the material an effective insulator. As the insulation comes out through the hose, it is conditioned further, adding even more tiny pockets of air to increase its insulating power. Even more, since Fiberglas™ insulation will not settle, it will keep its energy-saving R-value over time.
Like we said, insulating your attic the old way could take all day, and it can get incredibly messy! With the Atticat® Insulation Blowing Machine, blowing the insulation should take less than an hour and a half, and the entire job can be completed in less than four hours! (Based on a 1,000 square foot attic at R-30).
The system is self-feeding, and will spray the insulation exactly where you want it. The Fiberglas™ insulation releases and expands entirely within the machine, which greatly minimizes the mess.
Furthermore, the AttiCat® Insulation Blowing Machine is completely safe and reliable. This fully enclosed system has been designed for minimal
handling, so you can keep your skin away from that insulation.
Remember, even though the AttiCat® Insulation Blowing Machine is incredibly safe, you should always wear the proper safety equipment when dealing with insulation. This means a
face mask, eye-goggles, gloves, and a long shirt and pants. There’s no reason to expose your skin unnecessarily!
Finally, insulating your attic doesn’t have to be a hassle. You can get the energy efficiency and energy bill savings that Fiberglas™ offers, without the hassle of insulating your attic the old-fashioned way.
