- Improve indoor air quality with air sealing and reduce moisture and mold risks
- Increase comfort by eliminating drafts and cold spots
- Boost resale value through energy efficiency upgrades
- Qualify you for valuable government rebates from entities like BC Hydro and CleanBC BetterHomes.

Why Do We Use Batt & Blown-in Instead of Spray Foam Insulation?
Pre-cut (or batt) and blown-in insulation offer several advantages over spray foam insulation, particularly in terms of environmental impact and health concerns. Spray foam can release harmful off-gassing chemicals and requires precise application conditions; otherwise, it may not adhere properly, potentially leading to delamination over time. This not only poses risks to indoor air quality but also diminishes the long-term effectiveness of the insulation.
On the other hand, batt and blown-in insulation are more straightforward and predictable in their application. They do not carry the same risks of chemical off-gassing and are considered more environmentally friendly. The minimal use of blowing agents in these types of insulation further reduces their environmental footprint, making them a preferable choice for those concerned about health and environmental impacts.
