Summary

Insulation types, such as blankets, foam boards, blow-in or loose-fill, sprayed foam, and reflective, all have different methods of installation. R-value recommendations vary by location, and there are different considerations for the insulation of roofs, ceilings, walls, and floors. All insulation supports sustainable performance for building envelopes by stemming the flow of heat or cold into or out of buildings.
