Insulation, Part 3: Minimizing Fire Hazard Using Mixed Insulation Materials
Reduce Insulation Fire Potential While Controlling Cost Although it almost eliminates the potential for insulation fires, good quality cellular glass insulation (like FOAMGLAS) is significantly more expensive both to purchase and install than the mineral fiber (fiber glass or glass wool) or compressed particle (calcium silicate or perlite) type materials. The trick to “optimizing” insulation […]
