Default old attic insulation question

On 5/17/2014 12:33 AM, wrote:
Hi,
My attic has 2x6 joists. The (ancient) fiberglass insulation between the joists appears to be matted down to about 2" thick.

Do I rip it out and replace with 6" thick batts and add more above that?
Or do I leave it, add 4" batts, and add more above that?

All opinions appreciated.
Regards,
Theodore.

I've worked with blown cellulose, once. Seemed
to do OK. I'd add more, over the top. Either
blown cellulose, or more fiberglass.
