Owens corning pink insulation is soft to the touch and easy to install.
Please consider this extra thickness requirement when designing blocking heights and specifying fastener lengths.
The higher the r value the better the thermal performance of the insulation.
Benefits of energyguard polyiso roof insulation include.
Achieving greater r values in attics the higher the r value the better the thermal performance of the insulation.
R value is a measure of insulation s ability to resist heat traveling through it.

It takes into account the size of the sample and the overall change of temperature over time so that you can compare thermal conductivity of materials tested with plates of different temperatures or even that were tested by other methods.
The table below shows what levels of insulation are cost effective for different climates and locations in the home.
