To install batt insulation properly, first measure the space accurately and cut the insulation to fit. Wear protective gear and place the insulation between the studs or joists, ensuring a snug fit without compressing the material. Use a vapor barrier if needed and seal any gaps to prevent air leakage.

Do you install house wrap before or after insulation?
Usually the wrap iss installed first. Rigid foam insulation is often installed outside the building wrap, and batt insulation is always installed inside the building wrap. This is because batt insulation is much more moisture absorbent than most rigid foam so needs to be protected from external moisture. So batt insulation will not be installed until after the building wrap is in place to protect it, and externally installed rigid foams are not fixed in place until after the wrap is in place because they are fixed over it.
Can you get batt insulation for 12 wall studs spacing?
Yes, you can get batt insulation designed for 12-inch wall stud spacing, although most common batt insulation is typically sized for 16-inch or 24-inch spacing. When using insulation for 12-inch spacing, you may need to cut the batts to fit properly or look for specific products that are manufactured for narrower stud spacing. It's important to ensure a snug fit to minimize gaps and maximize insulation effectiveness. Always check product specifications before purchasing.
