Frequently Asked Questions
Blown-in insulation (also called loose-fill insulation) is a method of installing attic insulation by blowing loose cellulose or fiberglass material through a hose directly into the attic space. Unlike fibreglass batts that are cut and fitted between joists, blown-in material flows into every corner, gap, and irregular space, creating a uniform, seamless thermal barrier. It is the preferred method for topping up existing insulation in occupied homes.
Both are excellent options for GTA attics. Blown-in cellulose is slightly denser, made from 80% recycled content, and performs slightly better in air-sealing. Blown-in fiberglass (Owens Corning AttiCat) is slightly more moisture-resistant and maintains its R-value better in high-humidity environments. Our inspector recommends the best material for your specific attic during the free assessment.
For blown-in cellulose, R-60 requires approximately 17–20 inches of insulation depth. For blown-in fiberglass, R-60 requires approximately 16–19 inches. Depth requirements vary slightly based on the brand and density of material used.
In most cases, yes. If your existing insulation is in good condition (no mould, moisture damage, or pest contamination), we blow the new material directly on top, adding depth until the R-60 target is reached. If old insulation is damaged, we first remove it before installing new blown-in material.
Yes. blown-in insulation is the primary material used in HRS rebate-qualifying upgrades in the GTA. Both blown-in cellulose and blown-in fiberglass qualify, provided the installation reaches at least R-50 (we target R-60 as standard). Canada Energy Solution has a 100% rebate approval rate for qualifying families.
Most standard GTA homes are completed in 4–6 hours. Larger homes or those requiring old insulation removal may take a full day or two days. Your project timeline will be confirmed during the free assessment.
No. Our crew seals the attic hatch and all penetrations before beginning work. The blowing equipment is self-contained, and all material stays in the attic. We protect hallway floors and clean up any incidental dust before leaving.
We serve the entire Greater Toronto Area including Toronto, Mississauga, Oakville, Brampton, Vaughan, North York, Scarborough, Etobicoke, Hamilton, Guelph, and over 20 surrounding communities.
Blown-in Attic Insulation. Toronto & GTA
Of all the methods to upgrade an Ontario attic, blown-in insulation is the one our inspectors recommend most. and there's a very practical reason why. It fills every gap, crevice, and corner that fiberglass batt insulation leaves exposed. In the real-world conditions of older Ontario homes, irregular framing, awkward knee walls, decades of settling, batts simply can't cover what blown-in insulation does.
Also called loose-fill insulation, blown-in attic insulation works by pneumatically distributing cellulose or fiberglass material throughout your attic space. The result is a continuous, seamless thermal barrier with no cold bridges. That's why Ontario's HRS rebate program specifically favours blown-in insulation for attic upgrades. and why qualifying families can receive up to $3,100 back on their project. Every home that's using old fiberglass batts instead of proper blown-in insulation is leaving that rebate money. and that energy savings, on the table.
Canada Energy Solution is the GTA's leading provider of blown-in insulation services, having upgraded thousands of attics across Toronto, Mississauga, Hamilton, Oakville, Vaughan, and surrounding communities over 20+ years.

Cover quite lot of the cost
My 20 year old house had tempriture problem on some of the bedroom for many years, though it's time for us to top up the insulation in the attic, there comes John the inspector, I got his number from my colleague, he came and check my attic the very next day I called him and luckly he found out I can be qualified for the government rebate program to cover quite lot of the cost for me, he patiently walked me through the details and helped me do the application.

Very courteous and professional
I got inspector John's number from my friend who have had his service before. He responsed very quickly, called me the same date, and came visit my house the next day. He was very courteous and professional, checked many places in my house and dignosed where the problems are coming from, turns out I only had less than 7" of the insulation on my attic, and its unevenly distributed everywhere, even saw..
- Keyvan Mosharraf -
Increased to 21 inches
I had my attic insulation increased to 21 inches last weekend. I was skeptical at first when Jakey told me about the numberous benefits of increased attic insulation. Right now, I think the upper rooms feels much warmer and the furnace seems to be running less as well.

How Much Does Blown-in Attic Insulation Cost?
Blown-in Insulation Pricing in the GTA
Blown-in attic insulation starts at $0.99/sqft: among the most cost-effective insulation options available. The final price depends on your attic size, current insulation level, and material choice.
- Material: Blown-in cellulose vs. blown-in fiberglass: Cellulose is typically 10–15% less expensive and is eco-friendly (made from 80% recycled material). Fiberglass (Owens Corning AttiCat) is slightly more moisture-resistant and suitable for high-humidity attics. Both achieve R-60 at the same depth.
- Current insulation level: The deeper you need to go to reach R-60, the more material is required. Homes with R-8 to R-15 will have higher material costs but also qualify for more of the HRS rebate.
- Attic size: Standard GTA homes have 800–1,400 sqft of attic space. Larger homes cost more but also attract higher rebates.
- Attic condition: If mould, moisture damage, or old vermiculite is found, remediation is required before new insulation can be applied, separate quote provided.
After HRS rebates, most GTA families pay a fraction of the full blown-in insulation cost. and many pay nothing at all.
