Cellulose Insulation Vs Fiberglass
Brooklyn it is cool,, Brooklyn will provide you with both Safety cannot be guarantee to anyonebut some areas are relatively OK Ok here we go: BTW, I don't drive eitherBrooklyn is big boroughMost trains run through it to Manhattan, Queens and the Bronx It used to have, say, Italian areas, Orthodox Jews, muslim onesNow,mostly, all mixedI am not saying it is worseIt is differentI live in Italian area Bensonhurst, and it is safe enoughYou can walk in dark(keeping my fingers crossed) average 1 bedroom (2 rooms) apartment would cost $1.200 + utilityUsually you get it from Realty States,, but they charge at least 1 rentBut landlord will give you a 1 or 2 year apartment lease, which guarantee you a lotIn apartment building with or w/out elevatorsPrivate house apartment might cost little lessThere are N an D train hereAbout frequency: rush hour it is Ok everywhere (just crowded), off rush hour, well you can wait say 20 minThere is no scheduleTrains are heated and A/CSo are buses.
Cellulose is good in remodels and tight spaces like small atticsFiberglass is good for new construction.
Rest easyYou likely made the best choice Fiberglass insulation is a good insulation material if it is installed perfectly The problem with fiberglass insulation is it usually is not installed perfectly or even well for that matterUsually fiberglass is installed with big gaps that let the heat pour pour out of your houseBlown cellulose fills all the voids and provides a nice thick blanket that keeps the heat in your house.
I have to disagree with the first two answersCellulose insulation is made of recycled paper (mostly newsprint) that has been treated with a fire retardant chemicalIt can be blown over almost any type of existing insulationMost home centers will let you use the blowing machine free with the purchase of the insulationBe sure to wear eye and ear protection, and a dust maskR30 is a minimum in most areas and I plan to blow my attic up to about R45 because I live in Texas and we get some really hot summersThe fire retardant properties of reputably manufactured cellulose insulation meet or exceed that of fiberglass.
