Q: What is R-value and what is the R-value of injection foam?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-r-value.htm">R-value</a> stands for resistance value and is a number assigned to insulation that states how good the insulation is at heat transference (insulation). The R-value of injection foam is around 4 which homeowners will be happy to know is actually quite good. Another benefit of injection foam versus fiberglass foam is that the colder it gets, the more injection foam retains its resistance properties, whereas fiberglass tends to lose its efficiency in colder temperatures.</p></div>

Q: Does PEX pipe need to be insulated?

• <div><p>PEX pipe does not need to be insulated if passing through interior walls or insulated external walls. However, despite its resistance to cracking, you should still insulate PEX pipe in unheated areas if you experience cold winters in your local area. Otherwise, repeated freezing and thawing may weaken the pipes over time and create the risk of bursting. </p></div>

Q: Do outdoor faucet insulators work?

• <div><p>Yes! Outdoor faucet covers work by enclosing the faucet with a thick, insulating material that will keep the faucet warmer than outdoor temperatures. They need to be sealed tightly against the house to work properly, though, so be sure to tighten the rubber strap or drawstring on the insulation cover to best protect your faucets.</p></div>

Q: How long does pipe insulation last?

• <div><p>Just <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/when-should-i-replace-my-insulation.htm">how long insulation lasts</a> depends on the type of insulation you use. Fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years, but it's important to start checking fiberglass insulation around the 15-year mark. Spray foam also has a long life span of up to 80 years, while mineral wool can last up to 100 years. Although eco-friendly, cellulose only has a lifespan of 20 to 30 years.</p></div>

Q: Should you remove old insulation before adding new insulation?

• <div><p>You don&rsquo;t need to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/should-i-remove-old-insulation-when-i-upgrade.htm">remove old insulation before adding new insulation</a>. As long as the old insulation is still in good shape&mdash;not wet, physically damaged, or moldy&mdash;then you can stack new insulation on top of old insulation to get a compounding effect. You can also mix different types of insulation, like adding blown-in insulation around existing fiberglass batt insulation or installing rigid insulation boards over rafters in your attic that already have batt insulation installed. If your existing insulation is very old or damaged, though, you&rsquo;ll likely see more benefit from removing it and replacing it instead.</p></div>
