supply dealer could take only a day or two of your
time. Your attic should have from six to eight
inches of insulation when the job is completed
Insulating sidewalls in an existing home is really
not a do-it-yourself job. A professional with special
pneumatic equipment might be necessary. To find

sidewalls and under the floors, together with weather
stripping of windows and door frames in all living areas
