THERMAL PERFORMANCE-ATTIC BLOWING APPLICATION
. In accordance with the chart above, you must install the minimum number of bags per 1,000 sq, ft. of net area for each
R,Value listed,
. The maximum net coverage must not exceed that specified for each R-Value,
. The installed insulation must be at or above the specitied minimum thickness for each R-Value,
Failure to Install the required minimum weight per sq. ft. of insulation at or above the minimum thickness will result in
reduced R,Value,
. This product should not be mixed with other blown insulations or the thermal claims wiil become invalid,
. Initial installed thickness testing per ASTM C 1374 using Unisul VoluMatic III; 3rd gear; 16-inch gate opening;
150-ft. x 3-1/2 inch,diameter internally corrugated blowing hose.
R,Values are determined in accordance with ASTM C 687 and C 518, Complies 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 desired
R-Value, it is essential that the insulation is installed properly, '
DANGER: RECESSED LIGHT FIXTURES-TO PREVENT OVERHEATING, DO NOT INSULATE ON TOP OR WITHIN 3" OF SUCH
DEVICES, DOES NOT APPLY TO TYPE IC LIGHT FIXTURES OR TO FLUORESCENT FIXTURES WITH THERMALLY
PROTECTED BALLASTS.

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
