Made of tiny glass fibers and thermally efficient, fiberglass has been used to insulate structures for decades and is available in blanket, batt and blown-in (loose-fill) form. Although it’s often installed in attics, it can insulate nearly any area of a home or building, including walls and crawl spaces.

Fiberglass batts or blankets are often found in a home’s exterior walls, floors, ceilings, attic floors, attic knee walls and garages. It’s best for areas with minimal exposure to moisture, though it can be used in basements or crawl spaces with proper installation practices.

Fiberglass insulation can last over 80 years in your Sacramento home when installed properly, but if it’s compressed, becomes wet, suffers pest damage, or is contaminated by mold, it should be replaced as soon as possible. These factors can affect not only the performance of the insulation but your health and comfort, as well.

R-value refers to a material’s ability to resist heat conduction, with higher numbers indicating better insulation performance. The R-value of fiberglass insulation ranges from about R-3 to R-3.4 per inch for batt insulation or up to R-4.3 per inch for blown-in or high-density batts.
The R-value can be impacted by factors like temperature, compression, moisture, and more.
The Sacramento area is in climate zone 3, so the U.S. Department of Energy recommends insulation levels of R-49 to R-60 in the attic, R-19 in the floors and a range of R-15 to R-20 for exterior walls, depending on their configuration.
If your home has less than the recommended insulation levels, it’s possible to add more with products like blown-in fiberglass or cellulose insulation while avoiding major renovations and repairs.

As long as your current fiberglass insulation isn’t compressed, wet or damaged, you can layer more fiberglass batts or add blown-in fiberglass over the top of your existing insulation in most cases.
If your existing insulation is damaged, it’s best to remove it and replace it with all-new insulation. At Gold Star Insulation, we can help you choose the best insulation for each area of your Sacramento home and ensure it’s installed properly.
