Serving The West Michigan And Greater Grand Rapids Area With Quality Insulation Products.
Experts estimate that 65% of American homes are poorly insulated. According to the National Society of Heating and Ventilation Engineers, 44% of a home’s energy is lost through inadequately insulted ceilings and walls. If your home is more than 10 years old, it is likely that your insulation is not sufficient. That’s why it pays to have someone who knows insulation to check your home.

Superior Energy Savings: Independent studies by universities and research labs have shown that on the basis of installed thermal protection performance, a cellulose insulated building will obtain better performance under real-world conditions than a fiberglass insulated building of otherwise similar construction. Savings are on the order of as much as 40% according to field studies.
Quiet: In full-scale wall testing, Nu-Wool WALLSEAL greatly reduces the movement of airborne sound from one room to an adjacent room. This added benefit of WALLSEAL is especially important for apartments, condominiums, offices and hotels. Buildings insulated with WALLSEAL have a noticeable "quietness". The sharp sounds that easily transmit through fiberglass insulated structures are subdued by the increased mass of the WALLSEAL system.
Competitively Priced: Nu-Wool WALLSEAL delivers increased energy savings and superior sound control. Yet it is competitively priced compared to conventional insulation, making it one of the best values in the insulation market.
Environmentally Sound: Using Nu-Wool Premium Cellulose Insulation is more than a smart choice for its comfort and savings benefits, Nu-Wool is environmentally friendly even in the manufacturing process. Fiberglass insulation is made by melting sand and recovered glass in gas-fired furnaces. It takes at least 8,500 BTU’s of energy to produce a pound of fiberglass insulation. Cellulose insulation is produced by processing post-consumer recovered paper through electrically driven mills. Estimates for the embodied energy of a pound of cellulose vary from 150 to 750 BTU’s. Converting this to BTU’s-per-R, takes at least 10 times MORE energy to make fiberglass insulation than to produce cellulose insulation.
