R-TECH Insulation in an Attic or Ceiling Application

HOME INSULATING TIPS FOR ATTICS How do I know if I need more insulation in my attic? No matter war kind of insulation you currently have in your attic, one quick way to determine if you need more is to look across the span of your attic. If your insulation is just level with or below you floor joists (i.e., you can easily see your joists), you should add more. If you cannot see any of the floor joists because the insulation is well above them, you probably have enough and adding more may not be cost-effective. It is important that the insulation be evenly distributed with no low spots; something there is enough insulation in the middle of the attic and very little along the eaves. If your attic insulation covers your joists and is distributed evenly, you probably have enough. R-Tech panels easily fold over the top of panel joists without the need to fill in gaps and low spots. How Much Should I Add? Insulation levels are specified by R-Value. R-Value is a measure of insulation’s ability to resist heat flow. The higher the R-Value, the better the thermal performance of the insulation. The recommended level for most attics is to insulate to R-38. A layer of R-Tech is a fantastic way to beef up attic insulation with fast and easy installation. Lay directly over trusses, planks, or subfloor and these large panels can fold out (fanfold) or be joined together with very few gaps for heat/cooling to escape through. *Look for R-TECH insulation in your local home improvement store!
