You'd like to add insulation to my basement ceiling and attic Is miracle wrap insulation all it's cracked up to be?
Depending on the attic installation, you need a perforated product over the floor so condensation is not a problem. I recommend a Fire Rated Class 1 Class A Metalized Aluminum Perforated Radiant Barrier foil. On the attic "ceiling" or roof rafters, you can apply either a bubble/foil or just radiant barrier foil product. Right now there is no government rebate on just foil products so bubble is a good choice if that is important to you. Otherwise, just buy the foil! In your basement ceiling, you can use either product again, however, you will get more R-Value with a bubble product on the ceiling. -EcoFoil
