Optima Blown in Insuation

Where practical, we specify high-performance insulation on our projects to increase the energy-efficiency of the structures. Optima blown in insulation is one of these products which fills the wall cavity between the framing, surrounding all the piping and conduit and also provides an all important air infiltration barrier to reduce heat loss and heat gain. Tests show that even a small gap in an insulated cavity can cause a substantial increase in heating or cooling costs. Blown in Insulation by OPTIMA makes it easier for installers to provide a superior insulation job with no voids around wires, electrical boxes and pipes. Also, odd-sized framing assemblies are no problem with Optima, there’s no cutting or fitting.
