Cheating on our Insulation
I had a company come out and blow insulation into my lanai today. He was nice enough to fill in other areas which were only 10 inches, or equivalent to an R10. He said this 'cheating' is common with the developer insulation companies in TV.
They blow the required amount in the visible areas for the inspectors who generally do not climb into the attic for the full insulation inspection, he said they look at the near-by areas.
Our house was built in 2012.
I doubt if the insulation personnel care about saving money for the developer but getting the job done quicker or if they are over-loaded may be the incentive to blow much less and go.
