Insulation R-Value
R-value is an important part of insulation—it is an indication of a particular material’s resistance to conductive heat flow. In general, the higher the R-value (thermal resistance), the greater the insulation’s effectiveness. The R-value depends on the insulation’s type/material, thickness and density. Although a higher R-value in general means a more effective insulator, the highest R-value possible may not necessarily be right for your project. One example of this is if the space you’re insulating already has existing levels of insulation. Also, houses in certain climates don’t need as much insulation as others. For example, homeowners in Texas don’t need to worry about insulating against extremely cold temperatures—the weather is quite different in Ohio. That’s why different regions of the United States have different recommended insulation levels. Here in the Columbus area, we are in zone 5.
