Our Insulation Solutions
Fiberglass
Prairie Insulation offers a complete line of batt, roll, and loosefill insulation products. The most widely used insulation type, fiberglass is composed primarily of natural ingredients such as sand and recycled glass.
Fiberglass Benefits
- Excellent thermal and acoustical performance
- Cost effective and easy to install
- Non-corrosive and non-combustible
- Does not require wet adhesives or fire retardant chemicals
- Will not absorb moisture or support mold growth
- Will not settle, rot or deteriorate with age
Batt & Roll
Fiberglass batt and roll insulation is a popular choice for floors, crawlspaces and ceilings. It is easy to customize and install and can be used in conjunction with other products. This versatile and durable insulation type is a cost-effective solution for both new constructions and retrofit projects.

Loosefill
Fiberglass loosefill insulation offers exceptional performance for air infiltration control and thermal protection. It is typically used in attics, walls, floors and cathedral ceilings. Our fiberglass insulation is a formaldehyde-free product.

Cellulose
Spray-applied cellulose fits snugly in wall cavities, limiting inefficient air pockets. It acts as a noise reducer and is resistant to mold, moisture, insect infestation and fire. Wet-spray cellulose uses a unique system that combines dry, loose cellulose insulation with water, which adheres to the wall cavity. The sprayed insulation forms full cavities, reducing air infiltration. Cellulose is made from recycled newsprint and paper and is treated with non-toxic fire retardants.

Spray Foam
By creating a tight seal, spray foam insulation prevents air leaks, which can account for a major portion of a building’s energy loss. During the application process, spray foam is applied as a liquid and quickly expands to fill the space between cavities. It is typically used in attics, walls, crawl spaces, and pole barns.
HERS Energy Performance Testing
Home Energy Rating System testing determines whether a home meets an acceptable building quality standard and the resulting ratings can be used to improve a home’s energy efficiency. The experienced team at Prairie Insulation is certified to provide HERS testing for new and existing single and multi-family homes.
