About Us
“In the beginning…”
Born and raised in Brattleboro, VT, Chad Farnum started building houses before he could drive a car. After nearly 20 years in construction, he grew more and more frustrated with fiberglass insulation. He hated installing it and knew it wasn’t the best insulator. He decided to buy a cellulose blower for his own building jobs. After six months, he found himself doing more cellulose insulation work than carpentry. He founded Farnum Cellulose Insulators, became Building Performance Institute certified, partnered with Efficiency Vermont and hasn’t looked back. Today, he brings his vast experience in construction along with certified training in building science to every project.
“That’s my name on those trucks…”
We’re probably not the least expensive insulation company in town, but when you hire Farnum Cellulose Insulators, you hire a conscientious, courteous and dedicated crew who know quality and thoroughness are priority one. Why? Because, as Chad says, “That’s my name on those trucks and our reputation is everything.”
