Read all the posts on insulation, especially Montana’s experiences back in December. I’m in the Richmond, VA area and having a hard time finding a source of blowers to rent. I’m out of Regals range. The local Rental Works have one but I suspect that it’s not man enough to dense pack the insulation to the 3-4 lbs/cu.ft that everybody talks about. The nearest supplier of insulation I’ve found (although I haven’t called them yet) is Applegate Insulation in Chambersburg, PA. I was really hoping to DIY it myself. Does anybody have any sources please? Thanks to all, David
