Question from Gayle Ellias

Hi Debra,

I’m attempting to learn about the MANY different types of insulation being used these days. It seems spray insulation is becoming very popular because,in part,it repells moisture. Is there any that you recommend, or feel are safer than others?? An architect told me about “Icynene”. Are you familiar with this one?

I understand some use denim(cotton) or wool, but there is the consern of moisture/mold potential. What options do you think are the safest??

Thank you,

Gayle

You know, I would love for some green builders to chime in on this one, as I haven’t done enough research on this product to give you the answer you want.
