House insulation

Yesterday as a class we installed the ceiling and wall insulation, it wasn't a nice job leaving me feeling itchy but it had to be done.

  1. Foam insulation offers superior coverage. Foam insulation is thinner than other types of insulation. Foam insulation allows us to coat evenly and not miss any spots or crevices. Foam insulation does not slump over time. Foam insulation does not just insulate it cuts down on energy costs and can be applied without the invasive nature of replacing old types of insulation. .

  2. thanks for your comments, in NZ the most common insulation used is fibreglass wool, or natural wool, foam is only used for sealing around doors and windows.
