How does Spring Valley's climate affect this service?

Strong attic upgrade ROI math on most projects.. East County blown-in attics are where this service earns its keep.
Cellulose or fiberglass, which is better?
Cellulose has higher R per inch, better air-flow resistance, and is recycled paper treated for fire and pests. Fiberglass is non-organic, lighter, and easier in damp climates. In dry, mild San Diego the pro uses cellulose more often unless the attic has past moisture issues.
What is dense-pack?
Dense-pack is cellulose installed at 3.5 lb/cu ft into closed wall cavities through small drilled holes. The high density resists settling, plugs air leaks, and adds R-13 to R-15 to a wall that previously had nothing. The pro patches and texture before paint.
