Insulation is measured by R-value, which defines the ability of the insulation to resist heat blowing through it. The higher the R-value, the better the resistance. The recommended R-value varies from place to place, with a higher value being more necessary in hotter climates. When higher R-value insulation is installed into attic spaces, it lowers the amount of exterior air that is transferred into the main portion of the home, lowering energy costs by keeping heat and cold outside.
