Knauf Insulation to be featured on Designing Spaces

(SHELBYVILLE, Ind., September 13, 2007) – Knauf Insulation will be featured this week on the popular television program Designing Spaces.  The episode will air on Friday, September 14 at 7:30 a.m. on WE and Saturday, September 15 at 7 a.m. on TLC.  The segment can also be viewed on the Knauf Insulation web site http://www.knaufinsulation.us/ or the Designing Spaces website http://www.designingspaces.tv/ (show #1338).

The segment features Knauf Perimeter Plus™ Blow-In-Blanket System insulation being installed in a $1.5 million home near Springfield, MO. Weber Home and Land LLC, a leading custom home builder in the area, selected Missouri Insulation and Supply to insulate the showcase house and assure that the new homeowner’s expectations were met for an energy-efficient, quiet and comfortable home. Missouri Insulation and Supply, serving central and southwest Missouri for over 30 years, has earned a well-deserved reputation for craftsmanship, professionalism and use of the highest quality insulation materials available. And for this prestigious job, they chose Knauf Perimeter Plus for its superior thermal, acoustical and installation properties.

• Provides an R-value of 15 for 2x4 walls, or R-21 for 2x6 walls;
• fills every gap around pipes, wiring and electrical boxes to help control air infiltration;
• won’t settle, so it maintains its installed thermal performance for the life of the building;
• is GREENGUARD Certified for Children & Schools™ for indoor air quality performance;
• is fire-resistant and totally dry to help prevent mold growth

In addition to Perimeter Plus in exterior sidewalls, MIS also installed Knauf Jet Stream® in the attics and Knauf acoustical batt insulation in interior walls to provide complete thermal and sound protection.

The national schedule for the WE and TLC cable networks provide a combined potential audience of 142,000 households.  In addition, the segment will air on 18 local affiliates (see attached schedule), all within two weeks of the initial showing.
