As compared to other economical insulation options, cellulose provides good thermal performance with an R-value of 3.8 per inch. Cellulose insulation has received the highest fire safety rating (class 1), and can easily fit around items in your walls like pipes and wiring. Cellulose insulation is most often used in the cavities of walls and roofs to insulate, reduce noise, draught proof, and even provide added control against mold.
Happily, your confusion and your concerns are mostly unnecessary. When insulations are compared, cellulose fiber insulation, a gray-white powder made from shredded recycled newspaper, emerges as the overall best choice. And where cellulose wonât work, there are other good, safe, products that can fill the gaps (literally). To understand why cellulose is the best insulation, compare it to its principal competitor, fiberglass. Cellulose and fiberglass together account for over 90 percent of insulation sales. Both insulations cost about the same, and both cost less than all their competitors.
