Thermal-Sense Insulation

Blown In Insulation Install or Upgrade, Injection Insulation Installation,

About us

We would like to introduce you to Bob Kuehlwein of Thermal-Sense Insulation. Bob has been serving the greater Minneapolis/St. Paul community for the last years. Thermal-Sense specializes in blown-in cellulose installations for your home. Blown-in cellulose is a popular alternative to fiberglass insulation. According to insulation specialist Richard Applegate, cellulose is a natural wood product, and 75 percent of what it's made from is recycled newspaper. Fire-retardant chemical additives give the material a class-1 fire rating, making it a very safe product. One of the biggest advantages of using cellulose is its performance. In fact, because of its density, it has a higher R-rating than and outperforms many common insulation products. Its loose nature makes it easier to install into irregular spaces, creating a custom-fit monolithic seal over an entire area. From both health and environmental perspectives, cellulose is considered a "green" product -- more ecologically sound than competing products. It doesn't contain formaldehyde, and cancer warnings are not required on its labeling. Since there are no glass fibers, as with fiberglass insulation, cellulose does not cause itch. Bob and his staff are very anxious to contact you; we look forward to visiting about your home insulation project. Thank you again for viewing our profile.

TSI did an excellent job checking out my attic and what was needed to be done. Bob completed the job as scheduled, provided me with rebate information that I needed and I would recommend him to anyone.

They did a great job insulating our house and got everything done on-time. However, I would NOT recommend them if you have a stucco house. They told us a stucco person would be used to patch the holes in our house. They did not bring a stucco person to patch our house and did it themselves. The patches look horrible. As the patches have dried over time (and after we paid) they look worse and worse. You can see the patches from across the street!!!!

Thermal-Sense was on-time, stuck to the estimate, and let me review the work as it progressed to ensure I was satisfied. I wish more contractors were like Thermal-Sense.

Bob went into my attic and determined nothing was required. There wasn't heat lose around light fixtures, etc. Very honest! He also took the time to drill a hole in my garage ceiling to check the insulation. Again very honest and didn't recommend any work. He spent about 2 hours at my house. I would recommend him to anyone.

Bob was there when he said he would be, gave me a good quote and actually told me what he was going to do and why he was going to do it. I trusted him because he took the time to explain to me.

Bob was very through and professional before and after the insulation was done. He did an excellent job at pointing out problems and correcting them and making sure I saw and understood what he was talking about.. Bob and Ron were very personable to work with and considerate of cleaning up any mess.
