Guardian Fiberglass Insulation

Guardian Fiberglass products contain 35% recycled glass—more specifically, 30% post-consumer glass and 5% post-industrial glass. To clarify, post-consumer recycled glass are things like pop bottles and other glass items we use everyday. Besides the energy savings, it also ensures a higher quality of life. Many Guardian Fiberglass products are Greenguard® certified, meaning they have gone through rigorous testing on proven emission standards for upholding indoor air quality.

Insulation Board

Underlayment

Insulation Board. If you are insulating your basement walls but can't afford to give up the space to construct 2" x 4" framing, try using foam insulation board. Underlayment. When re-siding the exterior of your home, use an insulated housewrap, or underlayment, to help make the job easier. In addition to adding insulating power, it provides a smooth nailing surface to simplify installation of the new siding.

Sill Plate Gasket

Vents

Sill Plate Gasket. A significant portion of a structure's heat loss is because of air infiltration. Use sill plate insulation from Carter Lumber to fill the gaps between the sill plate and foundation wall to prevent a large part of this loss. Vents. Attic rafter vents should be placed to allow air to enter and exit a structure. Proper ventilation helps create a positive air flow which helps to prevent harmful moisture buildup. You’ll find attic rafter vents and more at your local Carter Lumber.

Housewrap

Blown Insulation

Housewrap. Typically installed over wood or insulating sheathing and under siding or other exterior covering, insulated house wrap surrounds a home with a protective barrier to help seal out energy-robbing leaks and drafts. Blown Insulation. Attic blown in insulation conforms to the space where it is applied—even around wires, electrical boxes and pipes—creating a monolithic thermal envelope. This means greater efficiency, fewer leaks and drafts, lower heating and cooling costs and a more consistent room-to-room temperature year round.
