Keep Things Quiet with Our Insulation Services
Summer is one of the loudest months, and we’re not even talking about the cheery children playing outside, but actually your neighbors mowing their lawn every three days! Here at Spartan Insulation, we know a cheat code for reducing those early morning mow buzzing noises and startups.
In this month’s blog, we’re highlighting our cellulose insulation, which is an upgraded insulation that can make your home feel calmer in the summer while also supporting better energy efficiency.
Why Summer Noise Suddenly Shows Up Everywhere
In Michigan summers, windows are normally wide open, kids are home, fans are running, and the neighborhood is basically a soundtrack of grills, music, and weekend projects. If your walls or attic are under-insulated or full of gaps, that sound travels more easily, and not to mention, your cool air can slip out while hot, humid air sneaks in.
That’s why a soundproofing insulation method is also helpful for having a great seal on little pathways that make your HVAC work harder.
How Cellulose Insulation Helps with Sound Proofing
Spartan uses Nu-Wool premium cellulose, an environmentally friendly product made with high recycled content, and the Nu-Wool WALLSEAL system is designed to fill wall cavities more completely to eliminate voids, reduce drafts, and help reduce room-to-room or outside noise.
In other words, it packs in where older fiberglass can leave pockets, and those pockets are where sound can sneak through and annoy you during an early morning while your neighbor is mowing their lawn. If you’re experiencing any of these listed below, we highly recommend considering letting us upgrade your insulation.
- Outside traffic noises are too loud
- Certain rooms are staying too warm even with the AC on
- Drafts around outlets
- Your home is dusty when it’s windy outside
- Bedrooms upstairs are getting stuffy in afternoon heat waves
