NU-WOOL WALLSEAL

Nu-Wool® Co., Inc. is the oldest cellulose manufacturer in the country, with distribution throughout the Midwest and beyond. All Nu-Wool® cellulose insulation products contain an EPA registered fungicide, which makes the insulation resistant to mold, and is an effective flame retardant. Nu-Wool® Premium Cellulose Insulation carries the Underwriters Laboratories and has verification from the ICC-ES SAVE program for its green attributes.

Nu-Wool® Premium Cellulose Insulation is a "GREEN" product- This energy-saving cellulose insulation is made from recycled paper. Nu-Wool® Premium Cellulose Insulation, with its superior thermal and air infiltration properties, is installed in both attics and walls of residential and commercial buildings. This environmentally friendly, "green" insulation provides up to 40%* savings on energy bills when compared to fiberglass insulation. Nu-Wool® Premium Cellulose Insulation also contains an EPA registered fungicide making it resistant to the growth of mold. A product high in R-value (3.8 per inch), Nu-Wool® Premium Cellulose Insulation is manufactured by Nu-Wool® Co., Inc., a business with over 60 years of proven performance standards.

The Nu-Wool® WALLSEAL® System is a spray-in-place cellulose insulation product that is applied to the wall cavities of new construction, eliminating the voids and air pockets common with other insulation materials. Installed to a density of 3.0 to 3.5 lbs./ft3, Nu-Wool® WALLSEAL® will not settle in the wall cavity. Fibers attach to sheathing and studs, forming a seamless bond inside the wall cavity. Whether working towards LEED, the Green Building Standard, or just trying to control energy bills, sound transmission or overall comfort, Nu-Wool® Premium Cellulose Insulation delivers premium performance in a guaranteed product. Plus, WALLSEAL® works with both steel and stud framing.

Minimize air infiltration by eliminating the voids and air pockets common with other insulation materials. Density, or weight per cubic foot, which is important in reducing air infiltration and increasing "Effective R-Value", is more consistent with the Nu-Wool® WALLSEAL® system. The customer can actually see the insulation in place and know that all of the areas in a wall are insulated.

Mold-Fighting Formula
Nu-Wool® Premium Cellulose Insulation is one of the few insulation products that contains a mold-fighting fungicide registered by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Registration is achieved only after rigorous testing to ensure that the borate-based fungicide in Nu-Wool® Insulation will resist the growth of mold even when exposed to conditions favorable to mold growth.
