Insulating floor joists?
Thanks for all the great replies.
So....what about insulating the floor joists for a room that has a full
basement (exposed) ceiling under it. This room is above the room that
houses the furnace for the house.
Would this be any benefit?

insulating around the outside edge would help. if you insulate under
the floor it will probably make the basement colder.

Last year I had the permiter of the crawl, and the block walls stripped
of the old
wet pink insulation, and sprayed with the yellow foam. This definately
helped with the temperature of the room, and the coldness of the floor.
Would it be beneficial to also insulate (maybe with the pink stuff)
the floor joists under the floor? I live in the midwest--10 to 30
degrees most of the winter.
thanks.
