<br />READ THIS BEFORE YOU BUY
<br />
<br />What you should know about R-Values,
<br />The chart shows the R-Value of this insulation, R means resistance to heat flow.. The higher the R-Value, the greater
<br />the insulating power. Compare insulation R-Values before you buy,
<br />There are other factors to consider. The amount of insulation you need depends mainly on the climate you live in,
<br />Also, your fuel savings from insulation will depend upon the climate, the type and size of your house, the amount of
<br />insulation already in your house, and your fuel use patterns and family size, If you buy too much insulation, it will cost
<br />you more than what you'll save on fuel.
<br />To get the marked R-Value, it is essential that this insulation be installed properly,
