This can have health consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The machine is also likely to be loud when running. Exposure to loud noises over an extended period of time can be damaging to your hearing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In general, manufacturers recommend that the hose not exceed 100 ft for optimal performance, which is the standard length that comes with rental machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This should be long enough for most homes, although you have to consider the fact that the path to the attic may not be a direct one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, if you just make it to the attic with the allowable blower hose length, then this affects how far <em>into<\/em> the attic you can blow the insulation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can get a longer hose, or you might be able to add extra pieces to some to extend them but then you also have to consider the disadvantage of using a longer hose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A longer hose can reduce the amount of pressure that the insulation encounters as it travels through the hose, which can reduce the distance that the insulation can be blown out of the hose. However, some machines may be able to handle longer hose lengths or larger diameter hoses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Type of Insulation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Different types of insulation have different densities and weights, which can affect how far they can be blown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The size of the insulation particles can also affect how far they can be blown. Typically, smaller particles can be blown further than larger particles because there is less inertia to overcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, you also have to consider how aerodynamic the shape is. Think about throwing a leaf vs a paper airplane. The feather is lighter, but it is not aerodynamic, so the paper plane will travel further with the same amount of force applied.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/blown-in-insulation-safe\/\">Blown In Insulation | Is It Safe?<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blower Equipment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The blower machine that is used can also affect the distance insulation can be blown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider the power that it can generate: <strong>a more powerful blower machine can blow insulation farther<\/strong> than a less powerful one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then there&rsquo;s also the diameter of the hose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, a larger diameter hose can generally blow insulation further than a smaller diameter hose. This is because a wider hose can move more air and insulation material through it at a faster rate than a smaller hose, which allows the insulation to be blown further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, a larger diameter hose can also reduce the amount of friction that the insulation encounters as it travels through the hose. This can help to prevent clogs and blockages, which can reduce the distance that the insulation can be blown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration.jpg\" alt=\"Insulation blower illustration\" class=\"wp-image-32670\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration-960x700.jpg 960w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration-150x109.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Insulation blower illustration\" class=\"wp-image-32670 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration-300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration-768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration-960x700.jpg.webp 960w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration-150x109.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-illustration.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, you need to take into account the age and condition of the machine. It may be rated at a certain power but will not function at that level. Any cracks or sharp dents (or kinks) in the hose can result in a loss of pressure and an increase in friction, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Obstructions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Obstructions in the attic, such as ductwork, wiring, pipes, and dividers can also affect how far insulation can be blown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there are many obstructions in the attic, it may be difficult to blow insulation a great distance. The machine may be capable of sending the insulation to the far reaches of the attic, but this can be inhibited if the insulation&rsquo;s travel is interrupted by these structures in the attic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They can slow, if not stop, the movement of the insulation and also possibly alter its arc of trajectory, meaning cannot reach as far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trajectory can also be influenced by the height of the roof and the presence of bends and corners around which the blower hose would have to be maneuvered.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Proficiency of Installer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the last factor to consider is how much experience the installer has with the machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have it done by a professional team or someone who knows exactly how to work with the blower, then you can get the most out of the blowing distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are attempting to DIY the blow-in process since you can rent the blowers, you might not get the best results straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting the optimal performance from the machine involves knowing how to adjust the settings and components as needed and how to hold and move the hose to get the best coverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having an assistant is also helpful, so you don&rsquo;t need to keep running back and forth to add more insulation to the machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thankfully, like those below, there are videos available that offer tips, tricks, and basic information on how to use these blowers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to Insulate Your Attic | DIY Renovation\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PuEzpNk1OsM?start=12&amp;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Loading An Insulation Blowing Machine\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/A7eXmeQgg8g?start=9&amp;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Owens Corning Attic Cat, blown in Insulation DIY!!!\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kubnlnzEFqI?start=103&amp;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Distances Traveled By Insulation Types<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We reached out to an insulation installation company to ask them what insulation travels the furthest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.standardinsulatingcompany.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Standard Insulating Company<\/a>, fiberglass is the easiest material to get the furthest.

Cut Through Wall\/Ceiling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cut one or more holes into the ceiling\/walls and push the pipe through these holes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation.jpg\" alt=\"Insulation blower hose inside a hole in the attic blowing fiberglass insulation\" class=\"wp-image-32672\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation-960x700.jpg 960w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation-150x109.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Insulation blower hose inside a hole in the attic blowing fiberglass insulation\" class=\"wp-image-32672 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation-300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation-768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation-960x700.jpg.webp 960w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation-150x109.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Insulation-blower-hose-inside-a-hole-in-the-attic-blowing-fiberglass-insulation.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-5\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It&rsquo;s important to note that this process can be messy and may require some preparation to protect the interior of the building from the insulation material as it is being blown through the hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&rsquo;s also important to ensure that the insulation is installed to the recommended density and thickness to ensure optimal energy efficiency and comfort, which is trickier to do when you can&rsquo;t actually get into the attic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Use a Professional Insulation Contractor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;re not comfortable climbing into or around your attic because it&rsquo;s a bit of a tight squeeze, or you don&rsquo;t like the thought of cutting holes into your walls or ceilings yourself, then you can hire a professional insulation contractor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to inform them that access is difficult beforehand so that they can plan well, and also to give them the opportunity to tell you if they are not equipped for more difficult installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Use a More Powerful Blower With a Longer Hose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned earlier, you can get machines that are capable of using hoses longer than 100 ft. So, if you&rsquo;re doing the job yourself, consider renting a blower with a long hose. This will allow you to reach further into your attic without having to climb around as much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Install Insulation Batts Instead<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If getting the hose up to your attic or wielding it once it is in the attic is the difficulty, then you might want to consider batt insulation instead. You lay it by hand, so you won&rsquo;t have to run the hose or try to maneuver it in a cramped attic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1.jpg\" alt=\"Batt mineral insulation installed in the attic\" class=\"wp-image-32673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1-960x700.jpg 960w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1-150x109.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Batt mineral insulation installed in the attic\" class=\"wp-image-32673 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1-300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1-768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1-960x700.jpg.webp 960w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1-150x109.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Batt-mineral-insulation-installed-in-the-attic-1.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-6\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/should-you-rent-an-insulation-blower-1821908\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/should-you-rent-an-insulation-blower-1821908<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.insulationmachines.net\/tips-and-tricks\/how-insulation-machines-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.insulationmachines.net\/tips-and-tricks\/how-insulation-machines-work\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/diy.stackexchange.com\/questions\/160175\/how-do-i-get-the-insulation-blower-into-the-attic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/diy.stackexchange.com\/questions\/160175\/how-do-i-get-the-insulation-blower-into-the-attic<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.servicemasterbyzaba.com\/blog\/blown-in-attic-insulation-pros-and-cons\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.servicemasterbyzaba.com\/blog\/blown-in-attic-insulation-pros-and-cons\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/servicechampions.com\/blog\/types-of-attic-insulation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/servicechampions.com\/blog\/types-of-attic-insulation\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ability to blow in loose-fill insulation makes the installation process much faster.
