Discolored Insulation
This is an example of old insulation that needed to be removed & eventually replaced. The grayish look is common with insulation that is excess of 20 years old.
Insulation needed
The required amount of insulation is 12 to 13". Here, you can see the lack of insulation. This is the main reason why they are having energy efficacy issues.
Replace the old insulation
Another example of insufficient insulation was identified, as it fails to meet the required R-value standards. The R-value measures the effectiveness of insulation in preventing heat transfer, with higher values offering better thermal resistance. Different R-values provide varying levels of insulation and energy savings. By investing in insulation with a higher R-value now, you can reduce long-term energy costs by improving the overall energy efficiency of your home.
