In addition, the type of insulation you choose will determine if you complete the installation process on your own or if you’d have to hire a contractor.

Any material capable of stopping the airflow into the home’s interior can be labeled an insulation material.(Image: https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1483796054126-af36bc143b13?ixid=M3wxMjA3fDB8MXxzZWFyY2h8MTR8fG1vZGVybiUyMHJlc2lkZW50aWFsJTIwaW5zdWxhdGlvbnxlbnwwfHx8fDE3MzE3NDk5OTN8MA\u0026ixlib=rb-4.0.3)
