High Quality Products

Rockford Insulation Pros provides professional services using top of the line insulation products guaranteed to improve energy efficiency and comfort. Our company offers several different types of insulation which are specialized to fit various needs. By properly insulating your investment, you are cutting down energy usage, saving money on energy payments, and preserving the natural resources needed to heat or cool the structure.

Insulation products can be installed in batts, sprayed as a foam, blown-in as a loose fill, or applied as a radiant barrier. Insulation efficiency is measured by R-Value – the higher the R-Value, the greater the insulating capabilities of the product. Insulation products are also treated to deter mold, pests, and fire. Just because one type of insulation may have a higher R-Value, this does not mean it is the best fit for every structure. Different buildings need have different needs for insulation. Rockford Insulation Pros offers free estimates and can help you determine which insulation product best suits your needs.

Types Of Insulation Products

Blown-In Insulation

Blown-In Insulation, also known as loose fill insulation, can be used in attics or blown inside of existing walls. Installing Blown-In Insulation inside an attic can be extremely beneficial if the attic has limited space, which would make installing fiberglass batts tremendously difficult.

Existing walls can be filled with Blown-In Insulation by drilling a hole one yard above the floor and another hole one foot below the ceiling and blowing the loose fill insulation in with an insulation blower. The holes are then covered by plastic plugs.

Benefits of Blown-In Insulation:

Cellulose Insulation

Cellulose insulation is a type of green insulation that is composed of recycled paper and news print, which if not used for insulation, could have been put into a landfill. Installing cellulose insulation decreases toxins in your home, reduces landfill waste, and is easy to install.

Cellulose insulation comes as a loose fill, which can be blown into open attic floors and small holes in existing walls. Cellulose insulation is mixed with boric acid, ammonium sulfate, or borax which is are used pest repellants and a fire retardants. It also has an R-Value of about R-3.5 per inch.

Benefits of Cellulose Insulation:

Rockwool Insulation

Rockwool Insulation is created by melting down rocks at a temperature of 3000 degrees and then spinning the rock into fiber strands. The rockwool strands can be formed into batts or blown-in insulation material. Rockwool Insulation has an R-Value of about 3.0-R to 3.3-R per inch.

Rockwool material was originally discovered naturally occurring in Hawaii, as a result of high winds blowing the molten rock during volcanic eruptions, which was then found hanging from trees near Mauna Loa volcano in 1850.

Benefits of Rockwool Insulation:

Rockwool insulation can be installed in batts or blown-in and can be used in many areas of a home, business, pole barn and more. Call Rockford Insulation Pros for a free consultation today!

Fiberglass Insulation

Fiberglass Insulation is created by spinning or blowing molten glass into fibers. Fiberglass is non-combustible and can be installed in batts, rolls, or blown-in. This is one of the most commonly used forms of insulation and is relatively inexpensive as well. Fiberglass is generally installed in ceilings, attics, basements, and walls. Fiberglass insulation has an R-Value of about R-2.2 to R-2.7 per inch.

Benefits of Fiberglass Insulation:

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam is a wet insulation which can be installed on floors, ceiling cavities, walls, spaces around electrical outlets and light fixtures, and spaces between walls and windows or doors.

Open Cell Spray Foam has an R-Value of around R-3.8 per inch, expanding to about 3 inches of thickness. When this type of foam is sprayed, bubbles inside burst, leaving behind small pockets of air. Water is able to flow through the foam, which prevents mold, while also not absorbing any moisture or losing any insulating performance. Open cell spray foam is also used to muffle sound.

Closed Cell Spray Foam has an R-Value of approximately R-7 per inch and expands to about 1 inch thickness. The air bubbles in closed cell foam do not rupture, which create closed air pockets and a vapor barrier. Water is unable to move through or be absorbed into closed cell foam, which also blocks mold and mildew. Closed cell foam is dense and strong, and can be left exposed after an install. This type of insulation is beneficial in flood zones, as the material repels water and creates an air seal.

Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation:

Radiant Barrier Insulation

Radiant Barrier insulation is generally installed in attics and is composed of reflective material, which reflects about 90% of heat from a roof, rather than absorbing it into the structure. A radiant barrier also increases the R-value of your attic’s insulation, creating a warmer environment in the winter as well as keeping cool in the summer. A radiant barrier can be installed in new construction or retrofitted to an existing structure.

Benefits of Radiant Barrier Insulation:

(BIBS) Blown-In Blanket System

(BIBS) Blown-in blanket system is an insulation product composed of a mesh netting which is installed over wooden studs in a wall or ceiling and then blown-in with a loose fill insulation. The netting allows for loose fill insulation to be held in place while perfectly insulating around pipes, electrical boxes, and ductwork without leaving any air gaps.

The (BIBS) blown-in blanket system is a high density form of insulation which is extremely effective at filling in between small gaps and small crevices and in turn blocking out any air flow from getting through. Due to BIBS ability to pack loose fill into walls or ceilings without any gaps, this form of insulation is incredibly useful at sound deadening as well as blocking out drafts, pollens, pests, molds, pollutants and moisture.

Blown-in blanket system insulation has high R-Values of about R-4.23 per inch. This densely packed form of insulation is also resistant to settling which prevents any air gaps from forming. The BIBS product is created from non combustible materials which protect the building and inhabitants in the event of a fire. In addition, the blown-blanket system is created from recycled materials which are also mold resistant.

Sonoglass Spray Insulation

What Is Sonoglass Spray Insulation?

Sonoglass is a non-combustible fiberglass based spray insulation which is applied as an acoustic and thermal treatment. The spray can adhere to many types of surfaces such as flat, domed, curved or irregular making Sonoglass a preferred choice in many theaters, gymnasiums and churches. Noise levels are drastically reduced by applying a thin layer of Sonoglass Spray, creating a sound controlled environment which is more comfortable for loud venues, sports games, performances and audiences.

Why Should You Install Sonoglass Spray Insulation?

Sonoglass provides excellent sound control with only a thin layer of insulation being applied, making this form of acoustical insulation more economical than many cellulose based acoustical insulation spray products. The applied finish of Sonoglass is smoother, flatter and more polished than cellulose spray, giving the product a more esthetic appeal. Sonoglass is non-combustible, rated flame-spread 0 and is 58% created from recycled materials. This product is available in numerous different colors and can be sprayed onto various surface types. Sonoglass is mold resistant and has an R-Value of R-3.733 per inch.

Monoglass Spray Insulation

What Is Monoglass Spray Insulation?

Monoglass is a spray-on insulation specifically designed for application in difficult to reach areas. Created from a mixture of polymer and soft glass fibers, monoglass insulation adheres to almost any type of surface material such as: wood, gypsum, concrete, fireproofing, steel, glass, and more. Monoglass spray insulation can be applied 5 inches thick on horizonal surfaces and 7 inches thick on vertical surfaces. Monoglass has an R-Value of R-20 on overhead spray applications and R-28 on vertical spray applications.

Why Should You Install Monoglass Spray Insulation?

Monoglass spray can be applied in one pass without needing additional layers which saves time and money. This product is non-toxic, non-combustible and rated as flame spread 0 along with smoke development 0. Monoglass is mold resistant and partially created from recycled materials. This form of insulation can be used to insulate around high humidity areas such as indoor pools because mold is unable to grow on the inorganic material. This spray is an effective thermal and acoustical insulation which reduces noise levels while providing high R-Values of insulation. Monoglass has a Noise Reduction Coefficient of .95 which means 95% of sound waves are absorbed and the remaining 5% are deflected. When sprayed over fireproofing, Monoglass does not affect the fire ratings of the material as the spray is non-combustible.
