Denim Insulation Installation

Much has been written about alternative insulation materials and this houseblogger gives a thumbs up to denim insulation. They found it easy to use, easier to install, and effective.

The insulation hangs in sheets 8' high and 16' on center and she scored it with a utility knife and then tore it by hand. Since the insulation is non-toxic only a dust-mask was needed.

    It doesn't look like the cross bars were utilized. Are they not necessary?
  • dimyselfer
    Also, no vapor barrier -? - is this also not necessary with this type of insulation?
  • We aren't sure. Best to shoot an email to the houseblogger and ask. This photo isn't the final product.
