R-values are determined In accordance With ASTM C 687 and 518
Compiles With ASTM C 764 as Type 1 insulation
"R" means resistance to heat flow The higher the R-Value, the greater the
insulating power To get the marked R-Value, It IS essential that the
I nsu latlon IS Installed properly

READ THIS BEFORE YOU BUY
What you should know about R-Values
The chart shows the R-Value of thiS Insulation R means resistance to heat flow The higher the R-
Value, the greater the Insulating power Compare Insulation R-Values before you buy
There are other factors to conSider The amount of Insulation you need depends mainly on the
climate you live In Also, your fuel savings from Insulation Will depend upon the climate, the type
and size of your house, the amount of Insulation already In your house, and your fuel use
patterns and family size If you buy too much Insulation, It Will cost you more than what you'll
save on fuel
To get the marked R-Value, It IS essential that thiS Insulation be Installed properly
