Foam Insulation Increases Energy Efficiency in Your Home

Green Home, Heating and Cooling, Insulation, Repairs and Installation, Video by Danny Lipford

    Like a lot people a the moment I am looking at insulating my house. I thought good R rated batts would be the go, but I have been shown Reflective batts triple layer silver linned that are collapsable to transport & unfold in the ceiling to insulate, they seem to be made out of silver linned thin cardboard. With an R6.4 rating from http://www.solarwise.com.au
    What is your opion of these ?
