Product Data Sheet

AttiCat

Expanding Blown-In

Loose ll Fiberglass Insulation is

designed for application in attics

of new and existing homes.

Compliance

• AttiCat

Expanding Blown-In

Insulation is manufactured in

accordance with ASTM C 764

Type I (pneumatic application).

• R-values are determined in ac-

cordance with ASTM C 687.

• In accordance with ASTM E 136.

Is considered noncombustible

by the model building codes

when tested.

• The surface burning character-

istics of this product have been

determined in accordance with:

ULC S 102.2 ASTM E 84*

Flame Spread 0<25

Smoke Developed 0<50

• AttiCat

Expanding Blown-In

Insulation is:

- Noncorrosive (per ASTM

C 764, section 12.7)

- Does not absorb moisture

(per ASTM C 1104)

- Does not support mold

growth (per ASTM C 1338)

• Conforms to the quality stan-

dards of the State

of California.

• Meets requirements of Minne-

sota Insulation Standards Pro-

gram

Thermal Performance

Stated R-value is achieved by

installing the minimum required

number of bags per 1,000 net

sq. ft. at a thickness not less than

the label minimum thickness and

minimum sq. ft. weight. Failure by

the installer to provide both the

required number of bags and at

least the minimum thickness will

result in lower insulation R-value.

All insulation varies in thermal

performance due to factors

such as mean temperature,

settlement, convection, moisture

absorption and installation

variation. Convection in  ber

glass loose ll insulation installed in

open attics can reduce its thermal

performance at extreme winter

temperatures during the heating

season. AttiCat

Expanding

Blown-In Loose ll Insulation has

been designed to anticipate this

phenomenon and the labeled

R-value re ects the average

performance over the winter

heating season. The dollar impact

to a homeowner’s annual heating

cost from loose ll convection

is estimated to be minimal, if

any, when compared to labeled

performance.

Installation Speci cations

Owens Corning does not

recommend or approve blending

or adding additional materials or

adhesives to this product during

installation. Owens Corning will

accept no responsibility or liability

when the product is not installed

in accordance with the product

label and installation instructions.

*This standard is used to measure and describe the

response of materials, products, or assemblies to heat

and  ame under controlled conditions, but does not

by itself incorporate all factors required for  re-hazard

or  re-risk assessment of the materials, products, or

assemblies under actual  re conditions. However, the

results of these tests may be used as elements of a

 re risk assessment that takes into account all of the

factors pertinent to an assessment of the  re hazard of

a particular end use. Values are reported to the nearest

 ve (5) rating.
