What’s so Wrong with "Regular" Insulation?

Most other types of insulation

  • Allow air flow around or through them, causing mould and moisture problems
  • Let drafts in, which make you feel cold and make you turn up the heat
  • Do not completely fill cavity and do not bond to the surface they are meant to insulate
  • Settle over time, falling away from surface they are meant to insulate, rendering themselves ineffective
  • Lose their insulating value over time, especially when they get damp, and will have to be replaced
  • Research "Actual R-value" for more information
