Fiberglass insulation is one of the most budget-friendly options available for homeowners and builders. While it comes with its pros and cons, when installed correctly, it performs effectively by slowing the transmission of air and providing a decent level of thermal resistance. It’s available pre-cut to specific sizes and R-values for convenience, ensuring a precise fit for your space. Made up of microscopic glass fibers, fiberglass insulation traps air, helping to reduce heat loss or gain. Additionally, it is often claimed to be fire-resistant and can help absorb sound, making it a versatile choice for both thermal and acoustic insulation needs. However, proper installation is key—fiberglass must be fully expanded and not compressed to work effectively.
Home owners/builders can choose to install two types of Fiberglass insulations in their properties.
Batts are pre-cut sections of insulation, typically 16 or 24 inches wide, designed to fit snugly between standard studs or joists. They are perfect for quick and efficient installation in standard framing.
Rolls of fiberglass insulation are longer, flexible sheets that can be cut to any length, making them versatile for custom-sized spaces. They are ideal for large areas or non-standard framing.
