Operational Guidelines
ATTIC OPERATION:
When blowing cellulose, use a minimum of 100 feet of 2
1
⁄
2
inch hose. For
installing fiberglass, use a minimum of 150 feet of 2
1
⁄
2
inch hose.
Effective blowing of insulation material into an attic requires a “lofting”
technique, allowing the material to be thrown in a 6-8 foot arc. Lofting
will result in more even coverage and efficient use of material.
BLOWING SIDEWALLS:
When blowing sidewalls, use the following settings and recommen-
dations as guidelines. Remember that settings may change from job to
job, material to material, or nozzle to nozzle. Hose length and humidity
may also affect your results.
Two hole method, standard wall construction: 2" x 4" x 16" on center.

Keeping material levels nearly constant in the hopper will improve
sidewall cavity densities. Maintaining the level at approximately half full
produces the most consistent results.
A gradual transition in hose size will help ensure the material flows
evenly through the nozzle. At the machine, use 50 feet of 21⁄2 inch hose.
Next, connect 50 or 100 feet of 2 inch hose using the 21⁄2 to 2 inch
reducer, secured by the provided hose clamps. Attach the desired wall
nozzle.
The maximum length of hose that should be used with your FORCE/1
is 200 feet.
