Ready to transform your crawl space and avoid costly mistakes? Join us as Michael Church from Crawl Space Ninjas uncovers the truth about reusing fiberglass insulation. Many contractors might suggest it's okay to reuse, but is that really the best practice? We'll break down the types of insulation commonly found in homes—rock wool, fiberglass, and spray foam—and explain why compromised insulation can lead to problems like moisture damage, mold, and reduced effectiveness. Get expert advice on how to handle wet and damaged insulation, especially if you're considering sealing and dehumidifying your crawl space.
We dive into the specifics of why removing old, compromised insulation is crucial, and the best alternatives for both vented and sealed crawl spaces. Learn why subfloor insulation is a necessity for vented spaces due to building codes, and discover the benefits of foam board and insole barrier insulation for sealed environments. Michael shares actionable tips that will help you ensure your home remains efficient and healthy. Don't miss out on these essential insights that could save you time and money in the long run.
