What is Fiberglass Insulation in Baltimore
What is Fiberglass Insulation?
As one of the most recognizable insulations on the market, fiberglass is a type of insulation that is either blown-in or installed in batts. As its name suggests, it’s made out of molten glass that’s spun into tiny fibers, a lot like how cotton candy is made, which contributes to its distinguishable appearance.
Fiberglass is an insulation material composed mainly of glass. However, fiberglass can also be used in the manufacturing of different products, including automobiles. As an insulator, fiberglass works to trap air and slow the transfer of heat.
In most cases, fiberglass comes in a blanket form (called batts), but it’s also available as loose-fill. These fiberglass batts are available in different thicknesses that determine the resistance to heat flow. This heat resistance is measured by the R-value, which ranges from R11 to R19 for walls and can go as high as R30 for ceilings and attics.
