At Henges Insulation, we take pride in offering Cellulose Insulationāa high-performance, environmentally responsible insulation solution made from recycled paper products.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is cellulose insulation safe for my home?
Yes. Cellulose insulation is treated with non-toxic fire retardants and pest-resistant additives, making it safe and effective for residential use.
How does cellulose compare to fiberglass?
Cellulose generally provides better air sealing and soundproofing than fiberglass. It also has a higher recycled content, making it a more eco-friendly option.
Can cellulose insulation be installed in existing walls?
Absolutely. Cellulose can be blown into existing wall cavities through small access points, making it a great choice for retrofitting older homes.
Will cellulose insulation settle over time?
While a small amount of settling can occur, professional dense-pack installation greatly reduces this. Proper installation ensures long-lasting performance.
