Insulation FAQ
What insulation choices do I have?
If a builder uses conventional insulation without considering the benefits of higher performing insulation, home buyers should ask why. Many builders use a lower cost insulation even though a superior insulation such as Nu-Wool would save home buyers energy dollars during the ownership of their home.
Does Nu-Wool settle?
Nu-Wool WALLSEAL is a spray-in-place cellulose insulation applied to the wall cavities of new construction. It is installed to a density of 3.0 to 3.5 lbs./ft.3 and will not settle in the wall cavity. Fibers attach to the sheathing and studs, forming a seamless bond inside the wall cavity.
How does Nu-Wool work?
Nu-Wool WALLSEAL is a spray-in-place cellulose insulation applied to the wall cavities of new construction. It is installed to a density of 3.0 to 3.5 lbs./ft.3 and will not settle in the wall cavity. Fibers attach to the sheathing and studs, forming a seamless bond inside the wall cavity.
How can recycled paper be mold resistant?
Nu-Wool Engineered Cellulose Insulation contains an E.P.A. registered fungicide, making the insulation resistant to the growth of mold even when exposed to conditions favorable to fungal growth.
What about bedrooms over the garage?
Bedrooms over the garage are often unnecessarily colder in the winter and warmer in the summer than the rest of the house. Properly insulating under the floor and around duct work with Nu-Wool Engineered Cellulose Insulation can help prevent uncomfortable differences in these "bonus" rooms.
What can be done to make the house more soundproof from room to room?
Noise problems are a common complaint from home owners, apartment dwellers and condominium owners. A vast majority of builders do not realize that common building practices do little to stop the transmission of noise within a structure.

Anyone who has traveled and stayed in a fine resort or hotel knows that soundproofing a room is possible. The trouble is, to do it somewhat economically, it needs to be done as the structure is being built. Because of its density, Nu-Wool Engineered Cellulose Insulation is a superior soundproofing insulation.
Will the insulation affect the sizing of the furnace and air conditioning units?
By using efficient insulation, heating and cooling equipment can be properly sized. "Right-sizing" HVAC equipment will likely save money during construction as well as every month on utility bills.
Won't recycled newspaper burn?
Borate-based fire retardants are incorporated in the manufacturing of Nu-Wool Engineered Cellulose Insulation.
Don't fire retardant chemicals in cellulose cause health problems and corrode metal?
Borates are safe, non-corrosive fire-retardant chemicals and will not harm pipes or circuits. They will not cause harm.
