Fiberglass Insulation in Grand Rapids

When most people think of insulation, the first thing that comes to mind is fiberglass insulation. It is the most common and widely used type of insulation, but people often wonder, “What is insulation made of?” and “What does fiberglass look like?” Fiberglass insulation is made from recycled glass and sand that is spun to create insulation fibers. The fibers are developed into fiberglass batts or fiberglass insulation rolls to fit into construction framing or are used in loose form and blown in or dense packed into areas. It can be used for insulating most areas of your home such as walls, ceilings and insulation for your attic. Fiberglass batt is often described as resembling cotton candy.
