Is dry wall an insulator?
While drywall, or gypsum board, does give insulation value it is not a high amount, a 1/2" piece of drywall will only raise the r-value by .45, if you are looking to improve the insulation of a wall you are much better off using rigid foam insulation. An extruded polystyrene board, that's Styrofoam, of 1" thickness gives you an R-value of 5.00, which is over 5 times greater per inch than that of drywall. You can further improve the insulation value of a wall by add some kind of batt insulation in-between the studs.

What is the best type of insulation?
The Best Type Of Insulation is Spray Foam Insulation. Because Spray foam insulation, also known as polyurethane foam insulation, is a superior form of insulation that provides a higher thermal insulating value (also known as R or RSI value) than conventional batt insulation. The application ensures that any gaps are sealed, providing a vapor barrier, moisture barrier, air barrier and even a radon barrier, thus stopping any thermal loss due to drafts or leaks. This makes spray foam up to 50% more energy efficient that other insulation solutions, resulting in cost savings on energy and gas bills. It is important to understand that a lot of the heat or cold air loss happens due to the air leaks on your walls or roofs, and that the cheaper batt insulation installation is quite susceptible to leaks if the vapor barrier (that layer of poly plastic applied just before the drywall) is not properly installed or if it becomes damaged. Further, unlike batt insulation, spray foam barrie insulation does not shift, sag or become wet or moldy. Rather it adds to the structural integrity of the house, with the added benefit of keeping out pests or vermin. For More Details Visit sprayfoammasters.ca

How do you insulate house walls that don't have cavities?
You can do one of two things. Firstly, you could erect a second wall outside the house. Of course there are many instances where this would not be feasible. In such cases, one would have to baton the walls from the interior to create a cavity, which would then be filled with some form of material with a high insulation rating i.e. fibreglass wool or rigid insulation boards. To provide further insulation, special plasterboard (drywall) can be purchased with higher insulation ratings than regular plasterboard. However, using these thicker boards would further encroach on the room in question, which might not be very desirable at all since the batons would already take a couple inches away. Alternatively use an External Wall Insulation system.
