ABOUT

What is Batt Insulation?

Batt insulation is one of the most common types of insulation, typically made from fiberglass, but it can also be made from mineral wool or natural fibers. It comes in pre-cut panels that fit between the studs, joists, and rafters in your walls, ceilings, and floors. It’s an affordable and efficient solution for improving a home’s energy efficiency, providing thermal resistance and soundproofing.

Types of Batt Insulation

Fiberglass Batt Insulation

Fiberglass batts are the most common type of insulation. They’re made from extremely fine glass fibers and are available in pre-cut panels that fit between wall studs, joists, and rafters. Fiberglass offers excellent thermal insulation, is non-combustible, and provides moderate soundproofing.

Pros

Affordable, widely available, fire-resistant.

Cons

Can irritate the skin and lungs during installation.
Types of Batt Insulation

Mineral Wool (Rock Wool) Batt Insulation

Mineral wool is made from molten rock or industrial slag, spun into fibers. It has a higher density than fiberglass, providing superior soundproofing and fire resistance. It’s often used in places where higher fire protection is necessary, like around furnace rooms or attics.

Pros

Excellent fire resistance, soundproofing, and thermal properties.

Cons

More expensive than fiberglass and slightly heavier.
Types of Batt Insulation

Cotton/Natural Fiber Batt Insulation

This type of insulation is made from recycled cotton or other natural fibers, such as wool or hemp. It’s treated with fire retardants for safety and is popular for those seeking eco-friendly options. Cotton batts are non-toxic and easy to handle without specialized equipment.

Pros

Environmentally friendly, easy to install, non-toxic.

Cons

Higher cost compared to fiberglass or mineral wool.
