The Department of Energy supplies detailed, scientifically calculated recommendations
for each state based on climatic and economic factors. For the convenience of
our
customers,
we
provide
some
of
this
information below.
Wisconsin Recommendations
Illinois Recommendations
Indiana Recommendations
These suggested R-values and guidelines should not be
considered absolute minimums and may differ from your
local building codes which should be
followed. Insulate walls of a crawl space only if it
is always dry, the floor above is not insulated, and
there is no open
ventilation to the crawl space. A vapor barrier
should be installed on
the
ground
to keep moisture out of the crawl space. Do not use slab
edge insulation.
