Default "R" for insulation????

According to zyberengel :
Have you tried Aluminium foil its cheaper and more practical
fire resistant and easier to install it is something you could buy from
a grocery store


And has _zero_ insulation value. Except inosofar as it may seal
air leaks. He's trying to insulate it, not improve its fire resistance.

R means retardant


R is insulation factor. Not fire retarding rating.
