Abstract:
1. A method for insulating a cavity comprising: providing a blowing machine configured to blow loose fill insulation material into a cavity of a structure; providing a hose having a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen throughwhich the loose fill insulation material is blown; connecting the proximal end of the hose to the blowing machine; positioning a cover atop the cavity of the structure, the cover being electrically conductive and having at least one aperture; connecting a ground wire to the cover; inserting the distal end of the hose through the aperture of the cover; operating the blowing machine to blow the loose fill insulation material into the cavity; and dissipating a charge from the hose via the electrically conductive cover and ground wire, the charge being generated as the loose fill insulation material is blown through the hose.
