Insulation is any material that is used within the walls of a building to keep heat in (or out), soundproof, increase fire resistance, or minimize vibration impact.

When people think of home insulation, the first image that probably comes to mind is a bunch of pink foam in the attic. This is typically the cheapest way to insulate your home, and it’s most common in older homes.

Whole-home insulation ― insulation within your walls, ceilings, and floors ― is common these days, and there are very real benefits that come along with it.

FAQs about Insulation

What’s an R-value, and how does it affect my insulation choices?

R-values are a measure of insulation’s ability to prevent the transfer of heat into and out of your home. They’re measured per inch of insulation thickness and are based on the type, thickness, and density of the insulation material. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulation’s climate control and energy efficiency.

Can I use one type of insulation for my entire house?

Yes, but you’ll be better served by having different ones in different spots. The lowest average R-value per inch insulation is blown-in or loose-fill, followed by batts and rolls, spray foam, and foam board insulation, which has the highest R-value. Because your home loses more heat through the exterior walls and roof, you’ll want to use a higher R-value insulation in those locations. For floors, doors, and crawl spaces and basements, you can generally use insulation with a lower R rating.

How do I know if I have enough insulation?

The top signs your home is underinsulated include fluctuating temperatures, higher energy bills, cold floors, ceilings, and walls, chilly drafts, uneven heat in different rooms, attic water leaks, frozen indoor pipes, and ice dams on your roof.

Can I just add more insulation over what I already have?

Sometimes yes, and sometimes no. It depends on the type of existing insulation and its condition. You can put batts over loose-fill material and vice versa. If you’ve had leaks in your attic and the old insulation is wet, it should be removed before installing new material. Otherwise, the trapped wetness between the two layers can develop mold and mildew and cause severe damage to the floor and rafters.

What’s the difference between open-cell spray foam and closed-cell?

Though both adequately insulate a home, they do it in different ways. Open-cell spray foam is full of cells deliberately left open to make the foam softer and more flexible. Closed-cell foam is made up of completely closed cells, making it a more rigid and stable material than open-cell foam.

Can I install insulation myself?

We don’t recommend it. Spray foam installation requires expertise, and even simpler materials need specialized tools like protective equipment. A professional installer ensures the job is done right.
