Whether you choose to insulate a new or existing building, wool and polyester insulation is safe and clean, making it easy to install should you wish to do-it-yourself. We also provide a fully approved installation service.

Woolmen approved insulation is manufactured in standard widths, which are designed to fit 600mm or 450mm ceiling joist space centres.

Foiled or plain Roofing Blanket and Acoustic Insulation is available in the following options:

1. 1160 x 430mm Batts
2. 1160 x 580mm Batts
3. 1200 x 15000mm = 18m2 Rolls - foiled or plain blanket
4. 610 x 15000mm = 9.15m2 Rolls Acoustic Sound Blanket (also 450mm option)

Woolmen Batts fit between most ceiling joists and wall stud widths. For non-standard joists, simply turn your Woolmen Batt on its edge and carefully tear it to the width of your joist or stud spacing.

Note: Woolmen Batts are slightly oversized to enable a snug fit in most applications.

The following tools are the minimum required for installation:

• Step Ladder (Non slip footpads)
• Sharp scissors
• Stick or small plastic garden rake for hard to reach places
• A lead light if the ceiling cavity is dark

Please follow these simple installation instructions when installing Woolmen Batts:

• Load bags of batts into ceiling cavity to the left and right of centre to enable a safe walking passage.
• Lay batts from outer edge towards the centre of the ceiling. This allows for the tearing to size comfortably in the higher centre of the ceiling cavity.
• Lift electrical wiring and place over batts where possible. A clearance of 100mm should be left around exposed lights and ceiling exhaust fans. Transformers should be placed on joists. A clearance of 150mm should be left around heater flues and chimneys.
• Use a rake or stick to push the batts into hard to reach spaces.
  
• Always dispose of bag wrapping toward ceiling access entry for easy removal.

Use your house plan to measure the square metre area of the roof space or alternatively measure the length of the exterior walls. Multiply the length of the house by the width to give you an estimate of the area required.
