Does the paper on insulation go in or out?

• <div><p>If you’re using faced insulation with paper, face the paper toward the inside of the room during the installation process. </p><p>A good way to remember this is that the paper should face the “warm side” as it’s the vapor barrier, meaning it should face toward where the heat will be coming from.</p></div>

Q: How is batt, rolled, or reflective insulation professionally installed?

• <div><p>Insulation is professionally installed by measuring spaces, cutting materials to fit correctly, and placing them without gaps for optimal thermal resistance.</p></div>

Q: Can you blow in too much insulation?

• <div><p>While more is seemingly always better when it comes to energy efficiency, your house does need some interaction with its environment. Adding too much insulation can affect your home's ability to breathe. Breathing simply means ventilating itself to reduce accumulated moisture within it. Too much insulation can physically block the venting ability or be enough to trap the moisture and damage the insulation or the house.</p></div>

Q: Does the paper on insulation go in or out?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re using faced insulation with paper, face the paper toward the inside of the room during the installation process. </p><p>A good way to remember this is that the paper should face the &ldquo;warm side&rdquo; as it&rsquo;s the vapor barrier, meaning it should face toward where the heat will be coming from.</p></div>

Q: How long does insulation installation take?

• <div><p>Most projects take 1-3 days, depending on area size and insulation type.</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>
