The Blow-In-Blanket System
Blow-In-Blanket is a patented insulation system that blows white fiberglass insulation into walls, floors, attics, and cathedral ceilings. BIBS INSULSAFE-4 is blown into open areas, and BIBS OPTIMA is blown into wall cavities. BIBS gives your home a custom designed, seamless, thermally efficient, sound-reducing blanket that completely fills any void. Simply put it’s the best insulation system. With BIBS, OPTIMA fiberglass insulation is blown behind special OPTIMA fabric. Both OPTIMA insulation and fabric were especially designed for closed cavity applications.
REDUCED AIR INFILTRATION
National laboratory tests show the Blow-In-Blanket system reduces air infiltration up to 68% over conventional batt-type insulation.
HIGHER EFFICIENCY R-VALUES
Tests show that even a small gap in any insulation application can cause a substantial increase in heating or cooling loss. BIBS makes it easier for installers to achieve a superior insulation job with no voids around wires, electrical boxes, and pipes, and odd size framing cavities are no problem. The absence of voids means you’re assured of full R-value over your entire insulated area, providing a superior finished job and exceptional thermal efficiency. Tests indicate that R-21 batt insulation produces an R-13 wall due to the inevitable gaps and voids. BIBS with OPTIMA ……5 ½”…….R-23 (4.23 per inch)
EXCELLENT SOUND CONTROL
You’ll appreciate the quieter, more peaceful environment that this insulation system provides. By filling all voids and gaps, it significantly reduces unwanted sounds from appliances, TVs, stereos, and ventilation systems. And installing it around pipes and plumbing fixtures will decrease the noise common with running water. BIBS is perfect for master bedroom suites, bathrooms, in-home offices and entertainment rooms.
NON- SETTLING
BIBS will not settle or separate. That means the insulation will maintain its thermal efficiency for the life of your home.
NON FLAMMABLE –NON COMBUSTIBLE
BIBS is non-flammable and non-combustible. It contains no chemicals or additives that can break down over time or cause corrosion, and doesn’t absorb water. BIBS is similar to the fiberglass products you’ve used for years, just blown in for a tighter and denser fit for a higher R-value.
COSTS
BIBS typically costs 35% more than professionally installed batt insulation, 23%less than professionally installed cellulose insulation, and as much as 56% less than foam urethane. Tests indicate a typical monthly savings over batt insulation of $30 on a $150 a month heating bill, offsetting the higher costs of BIBS in 2.5 years! Within three years of living in a warmer, more comfortable house, BIBS will have saved you money on your fuel bills and will continue to do so for the life of your home!
