Entry Level Blower

Philly Dude

I'm thinking getting an entry level insulation blower and adding blown in cellulose insulation to my list of services that I offer. I do a lot of work in some historic areas of Philly and I think this would be a good seller in these older homes that have almost nothing for insulation. I would need a machine powerful enough to blow insulation to the 3rd floor attic with the machine on the street level. I'm looking at the Intec Force 2, Krendle 425, and Meyer 300. Will these machines do the job ? Are there other brands I should be looking at ?

I thought this was a thread from my ex.

Ex wifes jokes aside, does anybody have any info on insulation blowers ?

Use "insulation machine" as a search on eBay...they show up about every week.

Try to avoid a Force One or "loaner" type machine....the time will kill you. We use an Insulmaxx that blows 80+ 30 lb bags and hour. That is production.

Joasis, I was looking at the Intec Force 2. It seems to be the most powerful machine that still runs on 110 volts. I don't want to have to mess with a generator with my first machine.

Our machine runs on 2 110 circuits, and we do carry a generator, but that is primarily for new construction. And older Krendl would be your bect choice, good luck.
