In short: comfort. Proper insulation ensures warmth in winter and coolness in summer, leading to significant energy bill savings. Additionally, insulation reduces noise levels by absorbing sound.

Insulation plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy and efficient home. Selecting the appropriate insulation type and ensuring proper installation demand professional expertise. Incorrect installation can lead to energy waste and moisture problems. Relying on experienced professionals like us guarantees lasting benefits tailored to your specific requirements.

Poor insulation levels contribute to energy loss, and that gets expensive. Topping up your attic can keep your home temperate, ensuring your furnace and AC, don’t work so hard.

Fiberglass is exactly that. Fibrous glass strands made from recycled material. It is hypoallergenic, and clean, and does not support mould growth. Fiberglass is the most common insulation, but has the lowest RSI (thermal resistance per square inch).

Cellulose is a recycled paper product, combined with Boric Acid. The Boric Acid acts as a fire retardant, and is also a highly effective pest deterrent. it has a slightly higher RSI than fiberglass.

Spray foam is a chemical product called isocyanate. It is a two-part system that reacts in your wall, to fill to desired thickness. There is 2 pounds, and 1/2-pound foam. 2-pound works as a vapour barrier, and is more dense. 1/2 lb is used in areas like garages, or in walls with an additional vapour barrier. 

Yes and no. If you fill your attic entirely, you’ll have no air flow, and it’ll likely rot. Alternately, if you live far North, your code may be higher than central or southern areas. If you have enough air flow, you can absolutely add more, especially if you need the extra thermal resistance (R-Value)

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas. It is created by the disintegration of uranium in the ground, rocks and water. Radon is an odourless and colourless gas that moves freely through the ground. Ease of movement allows radon to infiltrate buildings, especially basement areas. In the open air, the amount of radon gas is dispersed and does not pose a health risk. However, when radon is present in a confined area, like a basement, depending on the amount, significant health risks can arise. According to Health Canada, radon is the second cause of lung cancer. A building insulated with Boreal Nature Elite reduces radon gas infiltration to acceptable levels.

Not all spray foam materials are vapour retarders. Open-celled products do not provide the required vapour permeance properties to be considered a vapour barrier. However, Boreal Nature Elite closed-cell spray foam is a stand-alone vapour barrier. At 34 ng/(Pa*s*m²), Boreal Nature Elite meets vapour barrier requirements of the National Building Code.
