Insulation Install Tips And Tricks!

A video showing further progress on my woodshop build which includes installing Owens Corning Kraft R19 batt insulation in my 6 inch walls. I show a couple tips and tricks i learned while being a insulation installer out west.

Since I am the drywall person for my own job, I appreciate learning about side-stapling. Thank you for making the effort to publish such a helpful video!

This was so helpful! Husband left a year ago and im discovering with the help of youtube videos like yours, i can do all this myself!

This was really helpful, man, thank you! I’m finishing a 12x16 shed where we will run our embroidery business for a few years and I’m doing it all myself. Thanks for the tip on working around the outlets.

Thank you for the video there are lots of these on YouTube but I really liked your down to earth presentation, gave me the confidence to attempt to insulate my garage!

[rosiecosinga]

Thank you for the tips. I'll do it for myself. I do not need to hire a contractor. Excellent video.

I love all these comments about the side tabs or whatever you call them. He specifically said exactly why he’s stapling them where he is. And plus it’s his shop he can do it however he wants.

This was very helpful. Love the better mask. I looked for an affiliate link for it, you should get credit for that. I found both the RZ mask and an insulation knife on Amazon thanks to your recommendations. Since this is the first time I will install insulation and at the cost of materials and heating, I want to be sure to do it correctly. Thanks!

Arrr …just going to put some pink batts on my walls to my workshop …but I’m here in New Zealand and our framing is completely different!

Great video - very informative I feel like I can tackle my insulating job now.

I'll be doing this to the exterior walls of my in process basement finishing. My anxiety lol.

Watching the faced rolled insulation going in has calmed some of my anxiety about the whole ordeal.

In California the new code is the kraft has to be stapled to the inside but when you staple it to the inside it becomes a air gap and promotes mold growth and damage later on so to anyone who cares about the people theyre installing for staple it to the outside along the stud

I'm 5'2...and a half ;) lol I won't be opening my bags quite as gracefully lol i just need to replace a few pieces in a new construction (after housefire)...stuff some places, tape and staple and make it look pretty. Thanks for the info...I'm sick of waiting for a guy to do it! I want my walls up, and no one treats your house with the care you give your own house. I had to learn that lesson the hard way!

I wish i could like this video twice.😂 this guy is cool!

Great Video! I would be less concered about a 1/8 staple gap and more worried about 3/8 board warp and how flat the wall the studs were framed personally. If I'm doing it myself, its being done right and with a full vapor barrier. To each their own though.

[ARtorNot]

I don’t think I’ve ever skipped thru a video so much in my life

[weberito]

I’m pretty sure I’d like to have my barrier in place and cause some issues to drywallers. Having dry construction is more important and we’re talking about few staples.

[lo]

Im planning to DIY my wall insulation your tricks are good!👍

[Botanifiles]

That was really great, you're an excellent teacher

[ColbsterzSnowboarder]

That was super satisfying to watch them get stapled and straightened haha
