FAQs

Insulation FAQ — New York

Yes, potentially. Improperly mixed or off-ratio spray foam can off-gas volatile chemicals for weeks or months. This is a serious health hazard. Vacate the home if the smell is strong, contact the installer in writing immediately, and request the product data sheet. In severe cases, remediation (cutting out and replacing the foam) may be necessary at the installer's expense.

Not necessarily — but it points to a diagnostic gap. Insulation alone doesn't work if there are significant air leaks (around ceiling penetrations, attic hatches, HVAC boots). A blower door test or energy audit identifies where air is escaping. Ask your insulation contractor whether air sealing was part of the scope — many skip this step and insulation effectiveness suffers dramatically.

Blown-in cellulose/fiberglass is best for large open attic floors where you want to add R-value cheaply. Spray foam is best for sealing a conditioned attic (roof deck) or hard-to-reach gaps. They solve different problems. If your attic has significant air leakage and ductwork, spray foam on the roof deck is often worth the premium. Have both contractors explain their reasoning.

For blown-in insulation, the contractor should provide a job completion certificate showing the R-value achieved and the number of bags used — this is required in most states. You can verify attic depth with a ruler if accessible. For wall insulation (dense pack), ask for photos during installation. Don't pay final payment until you've received documentation.

It depends on the condition of existing insulation. Blown-in can be added on top of older insulation in good condition — this is standard practice. However, if existing insulation is wet, moldy, compressed, or vermiculite (asbestos risk in homes pre-1980), it must be removed and tested first. Never add insulation over moisture or mold problems.

R-38 to R-60 for attics in most U.S. climate zones (higher in very cold climates like Zone 6–7). The DOE has a free zone map by ZIP code. Most older homes have R-11 to R-19 — far below optimal. Doubling from R-19 to R-38 typically reduces heating/cooling costs 15–20%. Your contractor should specify the target R-value in the written quote.
