Wood Fiber Insulation


Hollis Construction Inc. leads the way in offering innovative TimberHP™ wood fiber insulation, a sustainable, eco-friendly alternative to traditional insulation methods. Wood fiber insulation is made from renewable resources, providing superior thermal performance, and enhancing energy efficiency in homes and commercial properties. It is perfect for Maine's climate, as it maintains indoor temperatures more effectively during both cold winters and warm summers. This insulation also offers soundproofing benefits, creating a quieter, more comfortable living space. As an environmentally responsible choice, wood fiber insulation reduces carbon footprints, aligning with Hollis Construction’s commitment to sustainable Insulating practices.


Here are the key benefits of using TimberHP™ wood fiber insulation in Maine:


  • Superior Thermal Performance: Provides excellent insulation, keeping homes warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, ideal for Maine's climate. TimberFill™ wood fiber blown-in insulation is for attic applications; and TimberBatt™ is a flexible, press-fit batt insulation for insulating walls. Both TimberFill™ and TimberBatt™ are Class A Fire Rated.
  • Sustainability: Made from renewable, biodegradable materials, wood fiber insulation is an eco-friendly choice that supports sustainable building practices. As per TimberHP, wood fiber is made from small-diameter, low value trees and residual wood chips from lumber mills.
  • Energy Efficiency: Helps reduce energy consumption by minimizing heat loss, leading to lower heating and cooling costs.
  • Soundproofing: Offers excellent acoustic properties, reducing noise transmission, creating quieter living, and working environments.
  • Moisture Regulation: Naturally breathable, wood fiber insulation helps manage humidity levels, reducing the risk of mold and moisture-related damage.

  • Fire Resistance: Both TimberFill™ and TimberBatt™ are Class A Fire Rated. offering an additional layer of safety in homes and buildings.
  • Local Availability: Wood fiber insulation is locally sourced, supporting regional economies and reducing the environmental impact of transportation.

Attics


Having ample Attic Insulation is extremely important, this is an area where many homes are the least energy efficient, as heat rises. This is especially true for clients which may have a limited investment or choose to address the insulation needs over a period of time. If Attic Insulation is not up to Code or non-existing, this is where Clients can get the most bang for their buck. Attic Insulation is typically achieved by “Open Access“ Blown-In TimberFill™ Wood Fiber installation. We also offer Closed Cavity applications, such as insulating the attic “Floor” or under Platform within the attic.
