Get matched with top insulation pros in Fallsburg, NY

Q: Is it worth it to remove old attic insulation?

• <div><p>The life span of insulation is between 20 and 100 years. At that time, existing insulation can fall victim to gravity, resulting in compression, which reduces its insulating protection or R-value. If you can't simply add more insulation over the existing material, removing the old to increase the effectiveness of the new can reduce your energy bills and make the project worth the time and money investment.</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 keep an outdoor spigot from freezing?

• <div><p>An outdoor spigot needs some attention before the temperatures begin to drop. Using an insulative cover is just one part of minimizing a frozen spigot and pipes. You&rsquo;ll also need to shut off the water and drain the spigot, which leaves as little water as possible in the pipes to prevent freezing.</p></div>

Q: Why is fiberglass considered dangerous?

• <div><p>Fiberglass is considered dangerous only if your skin comes into contact with it or if you breathe in any fiberglass particles. This is because fiberglass is literally made of tiny fibers of glass that can cut your skin and your organs. While there aren&rsquo;t many long-term effects, it&rsquo;s still important to take all the proper safety precautions when working with fiberglass.</p></div>

Q: What is the best type of insulation for drywall?

• <div><p>The most insulative type of insulation for behind drywall is spray foam insulation, but this is the most expensive insulation available. The most common insulation&mdash;sometimes considered the best for the value you get for the money&mdash;is fiberglass roll or fiberglass batt insulation, which is significantly more affordable but also far less insulative. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-types-insulation.htm">best kind of insulation for your house</a> will also vary based on the climate in your area, your budget, and more. A professional insulation company can help you decide which type is best for your home.</p></div>
