[papercreters] R-Value

Another good link.  http://www.roofhelp.com/Rvalue.htm

 

This one states "Inadequate insulation and air leakage are leading causes of energy waste in most homes".  Yeah, yeah.  Knew that.  http://www.ornl.gov/sci/roofs+walls/insulation/ins_01.html

 

This one (same site, different page) has a link that will take some info (including zipcode) and supply the r-values for the different components of your home.  http://www.ornl.gov/sci/roofs+walls/insulation/ins_05.html

 

Here's the full length article by Dave South.  http://www.iowafoam.com/R-Value%20Myth.doc "My experience is that R-value tables can be used as indicators. However, they need modifications to make them relevant in real world conditions."

 

This one's interesting . . . paper insulation  http://eev.liu.edu/heat2002/data/packard.htm

 

I'd better get back to work . . .
