thatwould depend on the purpose of the insulation sound or thermal?
Assuming thermal the available height of the ceiling would dictate what you can achieve but 50-100mm Knauf brand would be a good average.
However you may want a natural insulation or sound inslulation combined.
You should fits consider how much space you have, what type of insulation type and function you require and work out your optimum purchase from that.

It depends on the R factor or how thick. Your local home improvement store can answer your question with a phone call.

As much as is needed for those who enter to be safe
AS MUCH AS YOU CAN AFFORD. UPGRADING TO THE BEST WINDOWS AVAILABLE, WILL IMPROVE HEAT LOSS, BUT DOES NOT HAVE AS HIGH A COST/ BENEFIT RATIO AS INSULATION DOES. lc

It can save you as much as $145 a year for every 1,200 square feet of ceiling area that is insulated. Savings which add up!
You only need 8-10 inches. That is enough for insulation. You only need enough to put in the insulation you want. I'm in Arizona and only have 1' between the ceiling and a flat roof. But it's full of insulation. Works for me. Possible help added: A ridge vent for a pitched roof is a great way to help keep the heat down in an attic.
NO.. it was probably put there for a purpose. Might have been some form of insulation to keep the upstairs less drafty or very likely it is keeping moiture from getting to your mardwood floors upstairs.. much better to ventilate the basement a bit that remove the Plastic.. Might even have been someones attempt at asbestose abatement years before..
To simplify this as much as possible, an unfinished basement is a basement that is lacking the elements that would typically be seen in a finished room. These would include items like flooring, ceilings, insulation, and finished walls. Typical unfinished basements are as such quite bare, usually with the cement of the foundation making up the walls and the flooring, with the inner workings of the ceilings exposed.
Montana homes are much like other states in the northern states. Good insulation is needed to handle the winter.
The more the merrier. R19 at least but add a roof ridge vent if you dont have one. That is cheap - 2-3 hundred. My home has no wall or floor insulation. actually 6 to 8 inches of fiberglass blown or batts is neither too much nor too little for any place in the u.s. always better a little too much than too little.
Uh, do you mean how much does it cost to insulate a Belgian roof? Or is there some special insulation that comes with Strawberries and Whipped Cream? Furthermore, what kind of insulation?
