Unlike most insulations that are made from glass fiber, Roxul mineral wool insulation is made from a combination of natural basalt (or volcanic) rock and recycled slag. Available in R14 for 2×4 walls and R22 for 2×6 walls, Roxul Flexibatt® is a leader when it comes to R-value. It delivers top thermal performance to help keep your home warm in winter and cool in summer. To reduce energy consumption, control rising fuel costs and increase the year round comfort level in your home, rely on Roxul Flexibatt® mineral wool insulation.
When insulating your attic, install two layers of Roxul Flexibatt®. Fill the space between the joists with one layer, ensuring that the batt surface is level with the tops of the joists. Lay the second layer on top, perpendicular to the first layer, across the tops of the joists. When properly installed, Flexibatt® ensures maximum R-value with no air gaps that can reduce R-value.
