SheikYerbuti Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 If I put 2 layers of R-13 insulation in a wall. . .is that as good as one layer of R-26? Or does it not work like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballjoe Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I am pretty sure it would giv yu the same R value but it would probably cost more. Also is the fact that you would not want the barrier on one of the pieces of insulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only need to insulate a small section of wall, so buying the smallest package of insulation at the Home Depot was still too much. So, I bought the R-13 hoping you'd give me the answer I was looking for. . .which you did. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
