​What is R-value?

R-value can be defined as the ability of a material to resist heat, which means that the material will not allow heat to enter from outside or escape from inside. Different insulating materials have different R-values and each is used for different purposes.

​For example, the R-value of loose 
cellulose is between R-3.1 and 3.8 per inch, whereas that of blown-in fiberglass is R-2.2 to 2.9 per inch and fiberglass batts are R-2.9 to 3.8 per inch. Mineral wool has a large range of R-value of R-2.2 to 3.3 per inch.
Open-cell Spray Foam Insulation Fort Collins CO
Spray foam insulation in Fort Collins, CO has a good R-value of R-3.7 per inch and closed cell spray foam insulation has the highest insulation among all, that can go up to R-6.5 and even R-7. Thus, it is much more beneficial to use spray foam as an insulation material as it is a great insulator having a very high R-value.

​Even though the cost of spray foam insulation is relatively higher, you may end up spending more on the other types of insulation, just to achieve the desired R-value. However with spray foam insulation, you may just need a single coating for closed spray foam insulation for instance in order to achieve something optimum.
