[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 9786167, member: 6247"] R-15 is squat Bo-Diddly up here in the Great White Nort! I'd bump it up to like a minimum of R-50 if you can! :read: In my old house, the blown-in insulation barely covered the 2x6 ceiling joints. In the Summer, you could feel the heat radiating off of the ceiling in the house on hot days. Touching the ceiling drywall would feel VERY warm to the touch. I had a guy come in and add additional roof ventilation and blew another 8" of cellulose in and the ceiling was cool to the touch on the hottest day of the Summer. Cooling [B]AND[/B] heating bills dropped like the Hindenburg. Once Cap and Trade kicks in you'll be glad you went the extra mile. YMMV :thumbsup::coolman::beer: [/QUOTE]
