Should I remove old attic insulation before adding new?

• <div><p>Ideally, you can add new insulation to your existing insulation. However, some circumstances require you to remove old insulation before adding any new insulation: </p><ul><li><p>If the insulation is over 15 years old</p></li><li><p>If the insulation is wet or moldy</p></li><li><p>If it is <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-vermiculite-insulation.htm">vermiculite insulation</a></p></li><li><p>If you see signs of pest infestation</p></li></ul><p>Removing old insulation is best left to a pro who can safely dispose of potential moldy or asbestos-ridden insulation.</p></div>

What are the four common types of insulation?

• <div><p>While there are many different kinds of insulation, spray foam, blown-in, foam board, and batt and roll are the four types you’re most likely to see. That doesn’t mean they’re alike, though. Each one varies drastically in terms of cost, materials used, and how they’re installed—not to mention, how well they limit heat transfer.</p></div>

When is the best time to insulate a garage ceiling?

• <div><p>The best time to insulate a garage ceiling is when the weather is mild and dry. That means it shouldn’t be stormy, snowy, or raining, and the temperatures should be comfortable. Ideally, you’ll insulate your garage ceiling in the fall, before winter hits. Not only will you be the most comfortable, but you’ll also likely see the greatest energy savings heading into the colder weather with a newly insulated garage. </p></div>
