Insulation

Insulation Insulation completes the thermal envelope around your structure, and is an integral part of climate control and comfort level. Besides the obvious benefit of restricting the flow of heat, insulation also has a profound effect on moisture and humidity, noise, and the air quality of your indoor environments.

The trickiest part of insulation is there are so many different types. It’s almost impossible for most people to be well versed on every type available. That’s where the expertise of Rice Insulation & Glass comes in. In fact, we know insulation so well, it’s part of our name. We can provide you with the proper insulation for any situation to help you build a better home or business.

The varieties of insulation are widespread, but here are a few of the common types of insulation available:

Fiberglass Batts Fiberglass Blown Fiberglass Insulation

You have undoubtedly seen fiberglass insulation before. Rolls of fiberglass insulation have been installed in walls and attics of homes for years. Cost-effective fiberglass insulation just keeps getting better and better too, with better sound control, higher R-Values, and new technologies to deal with the challenges of moisture and mold.

Reflective Foil Insulation

Used on masonry (block) walls and other outer borders of the building envelope, Reflective Insulation is widely accepted for its ease of installation and excellent thermal performance. Reflective Insulation like FiFoil is particularly strong at the blocking of radiant heat transfer while allowing enough moisture permeability to allow your structure to breathe. Rigid Foam Sheathing

Rigid Foam Sheathing

Used in place of traditional wood sheathing to add thermal resistance to the exterior walls of a building or home, Rigid Foam Sheathing will provide you added comfort as it further insulates and reduces noise and moisture.
