WTB: Insulation Blower


I am looking for an insulation blower. I would consider all types. Ideally a smaller unit like a krendl 500, force 2, or comparable. Would consider anything depending on price. I am in northern Michigan, I would arrange and pay for shipping if needed. If close I would also consider trades, I install Spray foam insulation and have various things around that I may part with.

Thanks

Dave

Re: WTB: Insulation Blower


It is good, make no mistake of all the things I have done this is the hardest, but I enjoy it. Here our market is pretty rough right now, but I am diversified so I stay busy 7 days a week if I want too but I wouldn't make it on spray foam alone. I like it because it is typically only a 1-3 day job by myself although I recomend a 3 man crew. Get in, get out, get paid. I like that part and the profit margins are better than framing or other areas. Although I think that will be short lived equipment prices are coming down, material is going up, and a lot of guys are getting into the business. From reading the posts I noticed that you have an insulmaxx, how do you like that brand? I have been looking at them and the prices seem reasonable, but it usually works out that you get what you pay for so I am a bit leary.
