Sacramento Cellulose Insulation Installers

Cellulose is made from recycled newsprint and other recycled paper—consisting of up to 80% recycled content and requiring less energy to make than other types of insulation, it’s one of the most environmentally friendly insulation materials available.

Loose-fill cellulose insulation is ideal for insulating your attic or walls. It can help:

• Reduce your utility bills and maximize the energy efficiency of your home or building
• Make your home or building more comfortable year round
• Reduce noises from outside and from inside your home or building between different rooms and levels
• Improve the performance of your air conditioner and furnace
• Protect against air and moisture infiltration (and help eliminate mold growth)
• Contribute to a healthier environment

Retrofit & New Construction Cellulose Projects

The Gold Star Insulation team has experience with both commercial and residential projects and can install cellulose in walls, attics and crawl spaces.

Cellulose Insulation R-Value

Are you looking for the right R-value for your Sacramento area home? First, you need to understand what an R-value is. The R-value or cellulose or any other insulation is a basic measurement of an insulation material’s heat resistance. The Sacramento insulation installers at Gold Star Insulation can help you determine how much insulation you need, based on:

• What type of HVAC systems you have
• The size of your home
• Where you need to insulate

Cellulose Versus Fiberglass Insulation

Often, we are asked the difference between fiberglass and cellulose insulation. Fiberglass insulation and cellulose insulation have some similarities. Both have good soundproofing qualities and can be installed—using blown-in installation—in walls, attics, basements and crawl spaces. But they do have a number of differences:

• Cellulose consists of organic material—mainly newspaper—while fiberglass is made of mostly synthetic material
• The pink insulation you have probably seen in your home or someone else’s is generally fiberglass; cellulose tends to be darker in color
• Cellulose is made up of up to 85% recycled material and is considered one of the most environmentally friendly insulation materials available; the recycled content of fiberglass is lower
• The R-values for cellulose and fiberglass are different
