Cool Facts
- Lost insulation r value efficiency, due to moisture
absorption and wet insulation, is the single most
common cause of insulation failure
- Water has a thermal conductivity up to 20 times
greater than most insulation materials
- Just 4% moisture in your insulation can reduce thermal
efficiency, in that area, by up to 60%. The 4% moisture
may not be able to be seen or felt
- High levels of moisture already exist in building
materials. Wood framing materials, new dry wall and
1000's of pounds of concrete containing water and
moisture can take from a few months to a few years
to dry. This moisture and water, if unable to escape,
can absorb into the basement insulation material
- Maintaining the r-value of the entire home depends
on the wall cavities staying dry. Installing a house
insulation product with an r value of 14, covered
with a poly, may not be enough to protect your home
- Heat loss from an average home, with no house insulation,
can account for up to 1/3rd of the heating costs
