For a basement ceiling, fiberglass batt insulation is commonly recommended due to its effectiveness in preventing heat transfer and its ability to absorb sound. This type of insulation is available in pre-cut panels that fit easily between ceiling joists, making it relatively simple to install.
Owens Corning R-30 Unfaced Batts are primarily utilized in roofing, ceiling, and interior/exterior wall applications. It is suitable for both wood and metal framing cavities or installation between furring channels.
Start by drilling holes at the top of each wall cavity. Next, insert the insulation hose into these holes. As you fill the cavity, gradually pull the hose out to ensure even distribution of the insulation material. Maintain a steady pace while filling to prevent blockages. Continue filling each cavity until you encounter resistance, indicating that the space is fully insulated.
