How to Spray Insulation into an Attic

June 09th, 2007 | Category: Home Improvement, Attics

�

Some home centers offer the free use of an insulation sprayer or blower with the purchase of 20 or 25 bags of cellulose insulation.� Installation is a two-person job (one upstairs, one down) and will take about 6-8 hours. Put the machine outside and run the tubing up the inside staircase or up a ladder on the outside and in through a window. Break up the insulation and

feed it into the container attached to the spraying tube.� The machine will take it up fast, so break up several bags of insulation before beginning the job or have a third person help break it up. The person upstairs simply moves the distributing tube to throw the insulation into an even layer at the desired depth. Twenty bags of insulation� should cost under $200.
