As many homeowners and companies are trying to save money, they recognize the amount of money that they lose from energy waste. They also recognize the environmental impact of using non-renewable resources to heat and cool their homes. These changes in the construction industry have made the R-value of a building a much more important factor to consider when constructing and repairing a building.
R-value is a measure of the insulation’s resistance to heat flow based on the material's thickness and thermal conductivity. The higher the R-value of the insulation, the greater energy efficiency of the insulation possesses.
There are varieties of factors that affect the R-value. The type of insulation that is used, the thickness and the density can all impact the R-value. Some buildings and houses feature multiple layers of insulation and this requires adding the R-values of each layer of insulation together with the other layers. Here's the details of comparison of Ecofoam to other insulation materials.
