Q: Is R13 or R30 insulation better?

• <div><p>R-30 insulation is better for higher thermal resistance, but whether it&rsquo;s &quot;better&quot; depends on the application. R-30 is much thicker and suited for areas like attics or floors in cold climates, where more insulation is required. R-13, on the other hand, is thinner and works well for 2x4 walls or milder climates where less insulation is sufficient. Choosing between R-13 and R-30 depends on the area being insulated and the climate. For example, R-30 provides more insulation but may not fit everywhere in your home.</p></div>

Q: Where should you not put insulation in the attic?

• <div><p>Don&rsquo;t install insulation near water heaters, oil burners, or any other object that gets hot. Many insulation materials are fire-resistant, but not entirely fire-proof, so you should take precautions to keep hot things away from fiberglass. This is also why it is imperative to box off lighting fixtures and breaker boxes.</p></div>

Q: What foam insulation has the highest R-value?

• <div><p>Polyisocyanurate foam, or polyiso for short, has the highest R-value per square inch: 6.5 to 6.8. Polyiso is a rigid foam that comes with a reflective foil on both sides to serve as a radiant barrier. Given its high R-value, rigid foam is usually meant for foundations and basement walls.</p></div>

Q: How do you insulate a stone house?

• <div><p>Insulating a stone house is an expensive and involved process because it requires building a double-walled house. The walls don&rsquo;t need to be the same thickness, but they both need to be thick enough to handle any structural demands and meet fire and safety standards. The insulation (usually foam or fiberglass) is then installed between the two stone walls. </p></div>

Q: Do professionals handle attic, wall, and floor insulation?

• <div><p>Yes, professionals install and upgrade insulation for all home or business areas.</p></div>

"Roberto was the technician and he was very professional, polite, and personable. He inspected the rest of our system and told us things that needed to be changed or repaired. He showed me pictures of everything. Everything he told me about was accurate. He quoted me a price for R38 insulation , Some of our ducts were plastic and he recommended them to be changed. I agreed completely and didn't know they were plastic. I would have had them done the work but I had no price comparisons to make and besides I didn't have the money right then. So he just finished the vent cleaning and left his card. He did a great job on the vent cleaning and was happy with the work."
