Join me in this hands-on DIY deep dive into sustainable, off-grid home insulation as I share an unfiltered, owner-builder’s guide to choosing and installing the best recycled glasswool batts for walls, ceilings, and partition walls.
In this video, I compare Australian-made Bradford R4 wall batts with a 70-year performance warranty, high-performance R7 ceiling batts, R1.3 commercial-grade partition batt options, and R2.5 sound insulation—covering density, up to 80% recycled content, health and dust concerns, and why avoiding overseas products and expanding foam can save you money.
Watch me demonstrate my cross-hatch installation pattern, airtight service-cavity setup for electrical and plumbing, and counter-batten approach for extra R-value. I explain how a tiny 5 mm gap can slash your insulation’s effectiveness, why over-compressing batts around windows prevents future air leaks, and how to achieve zero-gap coverage with snug-fit techniques.
Learn crucial insulation tricks—from handling itchy fibres safely with dust masks to final gap-filling checks that guarantee 100% coverage and long-term performance.
This raw, real-life tutorial delivers powerful tips for owner-building, off-grid sustainable living, home energy savings, and budget-friendly insulation hacks. Ready to level up your DIY insulation game and slash energy bills in your high performance home?
