What were the results ? Seems logical adding extra R Value to exterior walls would make a noticeable change.
Is it worth the added cost ?
When we built, our builder from up north told us to get all the insulation we could. Just as we need it for the cold weather, we also need it for the heat. Since we were building new, we had nothing for comparison, but we also realized the necessity for insulation. If you can afford it, do it.
