How do you increase thermal efficiency in a newly house?
Most thermal loss is a result of loss through gaps in the home, and some is due to insufficient insulation. The best solution, although surely the highest cost, is the spray foam insulation made by many manufacturers. The reason it is such a good solution is that it seals gaps and provides insulating value at the same time. Spray foam the walls, attic, and crawlspace.
Why doesn't a foam cup get hot?
Because it has good insulation.
Can foam insulation be sprayed into areas that already have fiberglass insulation in order to increase the r-factor of sagging fiberglass and reduce drafts?
Foam has excellent thermal insulation properties and will do a very good job. But be carefull that the sagging glassfibre will support the foam until it sets or you will have a heap of useless insulation.
Is foam the ones for crafts a good heat insulator?
Foam is a good insulator because air is not that good at conducting (meaning that it doesn't easily transport heat or cold) in relation to other materials. As foam consists of many tiny plastic pockets trapped with air it both stops convection and prevents conduction.
