Testimonials

  • "Not only did they reduce the air flow in my home by 30%, they helped me take advantage of the financial benefits available from the tax credits. I have already recommended them to my friends." Rich and Judy
  • "The house is noticeably warmer even in colder temperatures. Even more than that, the dangerous masses of ice that use to form on the back of our house are gone." Mike and Jennifer
  • "The cellulose insulation has made a tremendous difference. The temperature is constant and the HVAC runs more efficiently." Rich
  • "Thank you for installing the cellulose insulation in my home. The savings has been great! We have already decided that we will be using the money we are saving to install new doors and windows this year! You will be hearing from us soon!" Amy and Bob
  • "I was very impressed by the fact that my installation was completed in such a timely and cost effective manner. You and your employees are very professional and courteous. Your attention to detail really shows in your work. Additionally, I would say the insulation is making a difference in my monthly bills. Thank You!" Stephen
  • I would like to report that, since our installation last December, the results of the cellulose insulation have, indeed, exceeded my expectations. So far this year, we have experienced at least a 1/3 reduction in our monthly energy costs. Needless to say, I feel the investment in the product was well worth it!" Melissa and Jason

Eco Friendly Insulation - the advantages

Eco-Friendly Insulation:
Some Insulations Are Definitely Greener


Individual homeowners in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC can make a significant environmental impact by choosing Long Insulation – the most high performance and environmentally friendly insulation for their home.

Recycled Content


Eco friendly insulation can be an excellent, high quality end use for materials that would otherwise be dumped into landfills. Long Insulation contains up to 85% recycled paper and can be up to 50% more effective than other insulations! It’s green from start to finish! The recycled content of fiberglass insulation ranges from 0-40%, primarily glass products, and that figure often includes waste from the manufacturing line itself. Spray foam insulation is a petroleum based product. It contains little or no recycled content and most formulations are made from a nonrenewable resource.

Embodied (Manufacturing) Energy


The amount of energy consumed to manufacture a product is known as its “embodied energy”. Manufacturing fiberglass for a home consumes six times more energy than manufacturing environmentally friendly insulation from Long Insulation to insulate the same home to the same R-value. Foam products contain up to 64 times more embodied energy than cellulose insulation!

Emissions


Standing outside a plant that manufactures cellulose eco-friendly insulation, one can hear humming motors but there are no smoke plumes and no odors because there are virtually zero emissions. Manufacturing fiberglass for just one home generates over 1,200 pounds of carbon dioxide! Fiberglass plants also generate enormous amounts of other chemicals used in its manufacture (formaldehyde, urea, polyvinyl acetate, chlorides, etc.)
Environmentally friendly insulation - why bother?
