In
accordance with the chart below, you must install the minimum
number of bags per 1,000 sq. ft. of net area for each R-value
listed.
The
maximum net coverage must not exceed that specified for each
R-value
The
installed insulation must be at or above the specified minimum
thickness for each R-value
Failure
to install the required minimum weight per sq. ft. of insulation
at or above the minimum thickness will result in reduced R-value
This
product should not be mixed with other blown insulation or the
thermal claims will become invalid

R-Values are determined in accordance with ASTM C 687 and
518. Complies with ASTM C 764 as Type 1 insulation
"R" mean resistance to heat flow. The higher the
R-value, the greater the insulation power. To get the marked
R-value, it is essential that the insulation is installed properly
Danger: Recessed light fixtures
- to prevent overheating, do not insulate on top or within 3" of such devices. Does not apply to Type IC light fixtures or to
fluorescent fixtures with thermally protected ballast.
