ABOUT TAP INSULATION:
TAP Insulation is an innovative, EPA-approved cellulose insulation infused with boric acid that provides three-in-one benefits:
Thermal Efficiency: Reduces heating and cooling costs by maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures year-round. TAP is Energy Star certified and contains 87% recycled paper content.
