Conquer Rising Energy
Costs
 If your home is 10 – 15
years old, it may not be as insulated as it should be. This can result in major
energy loss—especially from the attic. A well-insulated home can
significantly reduce your utility bills throughout the year. Aussie Roofing can
help you save your money, by including AttiCat™ Expanding Blown-In
Insulation with your green energy efficient house plans.
With AttiCat™ you
can:
- Save up to 20% on your home's
heating and cooling energy costs by insulating and air sealing. (Savings
will vary depending on your location and weather conditions. This air flow
research calculation of energy savings is based on a 1700 sq. ft., single-story
home, with base case insulation and air leakage levels equivalent to the
average home built in 1965.)
- Earn a 10%
tax credit up to
$500
- Increase the comfort of your home
during extreme heat
- Increase your home's resale
value
 Quick and
Easy
- Covers entire attic in less than
1.5 hours (1000 sq. ft. attic with R-30)
- R-30 insulation energy
savings
- AttiCat™ Expanding Blown-In
PINK FIBERGLAS™ Insulation provides optimum insulating R-value for your
climate zone
- Provides complete coverage, even
around pipes, wires and outlets
Mess-Free
 AttiCat™ Expanding Blown-In PINK FIBERGLAS™ Insulation
releases and expands completely inside the machine. As the insulation bounces
its way up to your attic, it is further conditioned through the length of the
hose, breaking it up and fluffing it, creating millions of tiny air pockets
that give the material its insulating power.- Easy clean-up because the machine
does the work
- Low-dust system
No Settling,
High-Value
Retention
- AttiCat™ Expanding Blown-In
PINK FIBERGLAS™ insulation will not settle
- Keeps its energy saving R-value
over time
Safe and Reliable
- AttiCat™ Expanding Blown-In
PINK FIBERGLAS™ Insulation is non-combustible and meets all building codes
for non-combustibility.
- Non-corrosive. Doesn't require
fire-retardant chemicals which can leach out, promoting corrosion of pipes,
electrical equipment or structural metal attachments.
- Doesn't support mold growth.
Inorganic glass fibers do not support fungus or mold growth. Will not rot or
decay. (Fiber glass is resistant to mold growth, as tested per ASTM C 1338.
However, mold growth can occur on building materials, including insulation,
when it becomes contaminated with organic material and when water is present.
To avoid mold growth on fiber glass insulation, remove any water that has
accumulated and correct or repair the source of that water. Insulation that has
become wet should be inspected for evidence of residual moisture and
contamination. Contaminated insulation should be promptly removed and
replaced.)
- Won't absorb moisture. Moisture
reduces insulation effectiveness. Glass fibers resist moisture
build-up.
 AttiCat™ Expanding
Blown-In PINK FIBERGLAS™ Insulation works on the principle of trapped air
pockets. Tiny air pockets trapped in the insulation resist the passage of heat
flow—heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. Generally, the thicker
the insulation, the more air pockets and the greater the insulating power.
- AttiCat™ Insulation is a
great option for your arsenal of energy efficient housing ideas!
