TAP ATTIC INSULATION IN JACKSONVILLE

What does TAP insulation consist of?

The main component of Jacksonville TAP insulation is recycled paper that has been reduced in size. Next up, it’s fed into a disc mill with the result being material that’s transformed into a consistency that resembles cotton and can be blown into attics and wall voids using special machinery. It becomes environmentally sensitive yet highly effective pest control insulation when it’s further transformed by a proprietary borate infusion. This insulation also helps to reduce energy costs in your home.

Is there anything toxic about TAP insulation?

No! Quite the opposite, as Jacksonville TAP insulation creates a protective environment for your Florida home, helping to prevent toxic situations. This pest control insulation is environmentally friendly and provides multiple benefits for your home. The foundational substance of TAP insulation is recycled paper that’s typically been diverted from landfills before being transformed into the needed consistency for its purpose.

Infused with a specialized form of borate turns this material into pest control insulation. Borate is already safely utilized by pest control professionals in numerous ways.

How long-lasting is TAP insulation?

In the right conditions, including when no roof leaks have occurred, TAP attic insulation in Jacksonville can last up to a century! When you compare that to traditional insulation—which, under ideal conditions, can last for decades—then it’s easy to see the durability of Jacksonville TAP insulation and the value it provides you.

Is TAP insulation worth it in Jacksonville?

TAP attic insulation in Jacksonville offers plenty of benefits, making it a great value that’s worth the cost. TAP, which is short for “thermal, acoustical, pest control,” addresses two important needs. First, it insulates your attic and wall voids well. Second, this form of pest control insulation is highly effective in fighting back against a wide variety of pests that often settle in Florida attics and walls: ants, booklice, centipedes, crickets, darkling beetles, earwigs, millipedes, roaches, silverfish, sow bugs, and more. This is permanent pest protection, too, and it comes with a lifetime warranty. 

Plus, TAP insulation is eco-friendly; the majority of the material is recycled paper that’s been diverted from landfills with its consistency transformed into a cotton-like substance. Then, it’s infused with a safe, specialized form of borate.

TAP pest control insulation is quite versatile because it can be blown over existing insulation or installed in newly constructed homes. It’s energy efficient, too, helping to keep homes cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Because TAP attic insulation in Jacksonville reduces energy costs, it can save you money. It even comes with the ENERGY STAR® Seal and Insulate Mark and is UL Classified.

This pest control insulation is fire resistant with excellent acoustical control—and it even guards against mold and mildew. Add up all those benefits of Jacksonville TAP insulation, and its excellent value is clear.

Is TAP insulation better than fiberglass?

When you choose TAP insulation, it will provide you with plenty of benefits that you just can’t get with fiberglass. First, under appropriate conditions, TAP is incredibly long lasting: up to one hundred years. Contrast that to more traditional forms of insulation like fiberglass, which under typical conditions will last, at best, a few decades.

TAP is denser than fiberglass, which is soft and fluffy. This means that it slows down airflow more efficiently than fiberglass, which can get blown about, enter soffits, and lose effectiveness. TAP also has acoustical benefits, which can translate into a more peaceful environment. 

Now, here’s the biggest differentiator. TAP is much more than insulation. It’s also a highly effective form of pest control: innovative and eco-friendly, protecting against ants, booklice, centipedes, crickets, darkling beetles, earwigs, millipedes, roaches, silverfish, sow bugs, and other pests commonly found in Florida. 

Here’s how it works. The insulation material is infused with a safe form of borate that pest control experts already use to safely treat pests in cabinets, baseboards, and so on. Then, when pests ingest the specialized substance while cleaning themselves, it eliminates them. Insects don’t develop a tolerance to borate, either, which is why this pest control insulation continues to be effective.

Why is TAP the best insulation to keep out pests?

TAP insulation is specially designed to keep out pests in eco-friendly ways. After paper is diverted from a landfill, it’s recycled for this purpose by being fed into a mill and then infused with specialized borate. After pests ingest the substance during self-cleaning, the process eliminates them. This includes pests commonly found in Florida like ants, booklice, centipedes, crickets, darkling beetles, earwigs, millipedes, roaches, silverfish, and sow bugs.

Next, there’s the versatility of TAP. This form of pest control insulation can be blown over already-existing insulation or installed in new home constructions. Or, after old insulation is removed, it can be replaced with TAP insulation. Next up: how long-lasting it is. If events like roof leaks don’t take place, Jacksonville TAP insulation can last up to a century—much longer than the couple-to-few decade lifespan of traditional insulation.

If I already have insulation in my attic, can I switch to TAP insulation?

You definitely can—and options include having your old insulation removed before having TAP installed or having TAP blown over your existing insulation. To find out which is best, our trustworthy team can inspect your attic and make the best recommendation for your specific situation.

Reasons to switch to TAP include how long lasting it is and how effective it is as pest control insulation. Plus, TAP insulation outperforms traditional insulation, including fiberglass, in just about every measurement. It can help your Jacksonville home stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, reducing energy costs (it has the ENERGY STAR ® Seal & Insulate mark and is UL Classified!) and helping you to be more comfortable in your home. So, reach out for your free inspection and recommendation about whether it makes more sense to blow TAP over your existing insulation or remove the current substance before installing your Jacksonville TAP insulation.

Does TAP insulation repel rodents?

TAP insulation is designed to exterminate pests and small animals. Although it may not repel rodents of significant size, it still can help to fight against their presence. First, rodents are attracted to homes that provide them with sources of food, which TAP doesn’t do (fiberglass and other forms of traditional insulation can be used as rodent food). Next up, if rodents do get in, they can bring fleas, ticks, lice, mites, and more with them—and TAP pest control insulation will take care of these pests for you.
