In this video, we break down the different types of rigid insulation, including rigid foams and rigid fiber, how they differ, and discuss the pros and cons of different insulation products to help you choose the right one for your project. Learn about key properties like R-value, fire resistance, vapor permeability, and thermal drift. We'll discuss how to select insulation based on climate, wall assembly design, and other critical considerations for long-term durability, fire resistance, and energy performance.
