[QUOTE="Clarkbug, post: 4562631, member: 35030"] Had it done this spring. Previously had no sheathing on the house, just claps, and no insulation. Added sheathing, dense pack cellulose, and house wrap. HUGE difference so far in comfort and wood consumption. Make sure you specify dense pack, that's where the air sealing benefits come in. Some blower machines can only just fill attics, they can't do a sidewall. Don't do it if there might be any knob and tube wiring in the walls. I also had bricks in the walls that were there from original construction. Had to pull those to insulate. I'm very happy with the results so far. [/QUOTE]
