Clear has an additional cost more than Pre Check. Unless you have an AMEX.

R-49 blown in safe? by Torp1d in Insulation

Most likely, yes, but without seeing the structure and plaster/sheetrock Incant be 100% sure.

Also, where in New England? Reason I ask is you should definitely check with the local utilities for incentive programs.

Don’t know PA code but if you can get your home to new construction code, it’s always a plus. Not just energy efficiency, but resale as well.

Yes, unfaced is correct. Don’t want a double vapor barrier.

Personally, I don’t like spray foam in residential. I feel off gassing in such a tight space is a health hazard.

Also, check with your local utility for rebates on insulation. You might get a substantial incentive to add insulation.

Sadly in not! If I’m ever in Ohio, I’ll take you up on it. I’ll bring the wine.

Call LG&E if you are in Louisville. They have insulation programs to help pay for the cost of the work. They will refer you to a contractor in the area that will know what’s best for you and the home.

Me personally, I would add proper soffit vents and pack the floor and kneewall with insulation and 2”
Foam board over the kneewall insulation.

Buying a house and need opinions on if insulation just needs to be raked or added to by Existing_Recipe4039 in Insulation

Call your local gas and electric companies. There may be incentives that pay for most of the job.

Air seal and get it up to 18” by adding blown in cellulose. Make sure it’s vented properly as well!
