foam vs. fiber insulation
Hello all,
Looking for opinions on crawl space insulation. This is for an old rent house on block and pad foundation. I am considering either R13 or 1 1/2" rigid foam (vapor barrier on one side and radiant barrier on the other). Fiber seems to have better cumulative R-value. However, I don't know if bugs and crawlies nesting in it will be an issue. I can get the 1 1/2 for about 10 dollars a piece. Fiber will let me do this incrementally as time allows. Trying to get a feel on what is the better option. thanks richard |
