This leadership has been maintained by providing
significant benefits over all competitive
insulation. Take a look at the real purpose
of insulation- comfort, safety, permanence,
and of course, thermal efficiency - and you'll
see that InsulSafe outperforms cellulose every
time.
| 1. |
Which
insulation offers
the highest R-Values per inch? |
| |
In
open attic installations, the thickness
of insulations is rarely a consideration.
In sidewalls, however, where thickness
can be important, InsuSafe 4®
can provide an R-Value of up
to R-15 in a 3 1/2" cavity- which
is greater than cellulose provides in
a similar-sized cavity.
Accordingly,
even though cellulose promotes a higher
R-Value per inch, in fact, it is total
R-
Value that is important, not R-Value
per inch. This is true when insulating
an attic or other unrestricted area. |

|
| 2. |
Is there any
fire concern
with either product? |
| |
InsuSafe
4® is
permanently noncombustible. Cellulose
insulation is naturally flammable and
must be treated with chemicals to make
it fire retardant. Even properly treated,
cellulose can can smolder when exposed
to heat as low as 450°F. |
| 3 |
How do the two
products compare in regard to dust? |
| |
InsuSafe
4® is considered by many
installers to be the cleanest of all
blown-in insulation products.
Those who install cellulose know that
it creates very high levels of visible
dust.

 Garage
Doors
Imagine a garage door that's beautiful and energy efficient.
A garage door you'd actually love to come home to. Safe. Energy
efficient. Not merely an afterthought, but one that adds style
and curb appeal to your home.
After all, a garage door is your home's largest opening.
It deserves as much though as you give your doors and windows.
Wayne-Dalton, the brand we sell, is the first garage door
and opener system to earn national recognition for our safety
features. No other manufacturer makes a door opener system
with the UL listing.
As your garage door closes, the panel edges meet to form a
weather-tight seal, but may cause serious injury if fingers
are caught in between. Wayne-Dalton redesigned the edges to
push fingers out of harm's way. It's a simple change that
can help reduce 20,000 garage door reported injuries reported
each year.

Wall Insulation
in New Homes
Blow-in-Blanket® is a
patented insulation system
that blows white fiberglass insulation into
walls, floors, attics, and cathedral ceilings.
In new constructions, the
fiber is blown behind mesh or netting, forming
a seamless blanket of insulation. The
Blow-in-Blanket® system
makes custom batts right on
the job site, completely filling around wiring
and fixtures, eliminating costly voids and
air gaps.
It is: Nonflammable & Noncombustible.
The
Blow- In-Blanket® system,
using fiberglass insulation,
meets HH-1-1030B Testing Criteria for smoldering
combustion and ASTM E 136
for non combustion. Flame Spread: 0 Smoke
Development:5
The Potential Uses are
Unlimited. The Blow-In
Blanket® system can be
used in:
- Retro-fit and new construction
- Residential-Industrial-Commercial
- Metal Buildings
- Interior Sound Walls
Thermal
Resistance
ASTM C-518 test for Blow-In-Blanket® system
show the following R-values:
3 1/2"......R-15 (4.23 per inch)
5 1/2.......R-23 |
