For using blown cellulose insulation it the ceilings with a 4.5:12 pitch trussed roof above, what size openings is your insulator able to wiggle through so as to direct his hose?
My girder trusses out at my hip ends are only about 3 feet high. Heel heights at truss bearing are about a foot.
I haven’t had one blown at this shallow a pitch before.
Veneered wall paneling is popular for its clean style, but it's a surprisingly complex trim carpentry job to do well.

You can reduce the hose down with PVC conduit. As little a 1 inch diameter can work.
gene.. 3 ' high at the plate ?... wow.. like the Sistene Chapel.
that 's a lot of room for maneuvering.. get up there and set an example
In a typical vanilla 4/12-roofed tract home, where the trusses basically end on the plate, insulators can still get the stuff in there OK (though properly attaching vent channels may be a challenge).
