What is the process to insulate a interior wall with blow in
cellulose? I'd like to insulate an interior wall to deaden the noise
coming through it. I'm not sure if it's worth renting a machine just
to do a wall. Is there another way?

Thanks.

If you will be doing it from the inside,
drill a hole top and bottom of each stud space.
You might get away with only 1 hole for each...

Now, promise you won't laugh...

I had one wall to insulate and couldn't see
renting the machine, so.....we used an electric
leaf blower!! Yes!

Ran the blower outside the house with a hose into
the room. Fed the material right into the blower
intake by hand. Worked like a treat!

YMMV



LOL!

...oh that's right. You said not to laugh. Was the hose duct taped to the
blower? Sounds like a future Red Green episode.


Yes, hose duct taped to blower outlet.

You're right! Perfect episode for Red Green.
On the show though, the hose explodes, sending
cellulose dust everywhere!
