				 | its made from glass- you need to get that glass up to 2400 to get it into that product. Thats a lot of energy. |

				 | wow , that seems high to me.
 For 13 years my business was in the where the Ownes Corning fiberglass melt facility use to be.  There was a huge (size of a swimming pool) frozen pool of glass upstairs inside a furnace. .  When they left they just picked up and moved out , left behind almost all the stuff except the paltinum screens used to form the molten glass into the fibers.

Standard craft faced 15"R19 in a 88.5 sq' roll for $31.73 is a fair price. No contractor is installing it for less than that per sq.ft.If he is beware,you're getting burned somehow. |

 |  R13 kraft paper faced .. Might be a fair price .. just last time I bought it I think it was $11.00 a roll . Insulation has always been inexspensive .. Trying to think who was president last time I bought it .. Carter ? |

				 | Just about everything costs more these days.....There is some type of tax credit going on now for energy savings. I was looking at insulation and came across it.  It may be looking into if you are going to buy insulation.  I think you have to do it before the end of the year. |

				 | I watched Anderson do that ICYNENE stuff in a new house a few years back, it looked real good but I think they can only do it on new construction |
