Description:

Mr. Anderson will describe, and discuss the differences among, four types of insulation: fiberglass, cellulose, open-cell foam, and closed-cell foam. He will compare the pros and cons of each type and rate their effectiveness. He will also talk about the effectiveness and importance of the installation process and its impact on energy usage and costs. "You can choose one of the foam insulations at a relatively high cost, but if it isn't installed properly the effect can be hindered".
