Re: Furniture Maker's Shop Destroyed by Fire

Mr. Levin,
Insulate your next building with cellulose insulation both in the attic AND in the walls. In the event of a fire the spread of flame will be greatly reduced allowing more time to get the fire under control and more time to remove valuables and keepsakes. Cellulose insulation does not burn. Anytime you see a structure that is burnt down to the ground you will find that, if insulated, it utilized some type of fiberglass which doesn't burn but has a very low melting point and can do nothing to prevent flamespread. Note: Cellulose is not toxic under fire as compared to most foam and f/g types.
Also, cellulose will reduce the # of "air turns" (outside/inside aire replacement). The inside temp change due to the ongoing air turns is what activates the thermostat turning on HVAC equipment consuming energy. Also cellulose does a much better job of managing the moisture in the air reducing the corrosion that is often found on metal tools and equipment. All of this I have experienced 1st hand.
