Denim insulation can be great, but from a purely practical standpoint, I'd suggest also considering cellulose. It's eco-friendly too, often cheaper, and tends to perform better thermally. Still, can't argue with the quiet factor denim brings—comfort matters more than numbers sometimes.
I went with cellulose in my last reno—definitely cheaper and easy enough to install. But, gotta admit, my brother's denim-insulated den is so cozy and quiet... kinda jealous every time I visit. Maybe numbers aren't everything?
I hear ya on the denim insulation. When we redid our attic, I went with cellulose too—budget won out—but every time I visit my cousin's place (they splurged on denim), it's like stepping into a cozy reading nook. Numbers matter, but comfort counts for something too...
Denim insulation sounds dreamy, but honestly, once it's behind drywall, does it really matter? I mean, my attic's cellulose and still feels cozy enough for Netflix binges. Maybe it's more psychological than anything...
"Maybe it's more psychological than anything..."
Could be partly psychological, sure...but insulation isn't just about cozy vibes. Denim insulation has solid soundproofing qualities—something cellulose doesn't match. Might not matter for Netflix binges, but if street noise bugs you, it makes a real difference.
