Preparing to Install Blown Cellulose over Garage in Dover, DE
The crew is preparing to install TruSoft blown in cellulose in the floor joists above this garage. This will eliminate cold floors for the room above it and cut down on on noise that travels up from the garage. The crew remove a piece of siding and drill holes into each rim joist. The very long pipe on the ground will be fed into each hole to dense pack the TruSoft blown-in cellulose into each cavity.
Dense packing TruSoft blown in cellulose in Dover, DE
Here you can see that the very long pole has been inserted into this joist bay all the way to the other side ensuring that it reaches every area with cellulose. The cellulose is blown into the cavity and compresses any existing insulation and completely fills the cavity preventing the flow of air between the garage and the room above. This will significantly cut down on heating and cooling costs for that room and other rooms surrounding it.
Cellulose job completed
The job has now been completed. The holes that were drilled out have now been plugged and the siding has been replaced. With this method of installation you can't even tell that we were ever there. The homeowner however will know we were there by the level of comfort they will now feel in the room above the garage not to mention saving on their energy costs throughout the year as well as cutting down on the noise generated from the garage.
