Energy Information
Insulation is very important
in every home. When installed correctly it will keep you cool in the summer and warm in the
winter. Plus an advantage that many people find especially appealing is energy savings.
A new style of insulation for homes
that is currently sweeping across the north state is BIBS®. Blow-In-BlanketŪ is a
patented insulation system that blows white fiberglass insulation into walls,
floors, attics, and cathedral ceilings. In new construction, the fiber is
blown behind a nylon netting, forming a seamless blanket of insulation.
The Blow-in-BlanketŪ system makes custom batts right on the job site, completely
filling around wiring and fixtures, and eliminating costly voids and air gaps. It also
reduces air infiltration up to 68% over conventional batt-type insulation.

But choosing and installing a hearth product and chimney or vent without adequate expertise is like playing with fire.
