Types of Insulation
Fiberglass Insulation
Fiberglass insulation is one of the most common types used in Minnesota homes. It consists of tiny glass fibers and is available in batts, rolls, or loose-fill forms. Fiberglass insulation is known for its affordability, fire resistance, and ease of installation. It provides excellent thermal performance, helping to keep homes warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
Cellulose Insulation
Cellulose insulation is made from recycled paper treated with fire retardants and insect repellents, making it an eco-friendly option for homeowners concerned about sustainability. It is often blown or sprayed into wall cavities and attic spaces, forming a dense barrier against heat transfer. Cellulose insulation offers effective soundproofing qualities in addition to thermal resistance, contributing to a quieter and more comfortable indoor environment.
Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam insulation is a high-performance option that creates a seamless, airtight barrier when applied. It expands upon application, filling gaps and cracks to provide superior thermal insulation and air sealing. Spray foam insulation is particularly beneficial in Minnesota’s climate, as it helps prevent heat loss and air infiltration, reducing energy bills and enhancing indoor comfort. While it tends to be more expensive upfront, the long-term energy savings and improved comfort make it a popular choice for many homeowners.
