I have ALOT of insulation from a big job.

These are BIG bags of R19 for the cold midwest winters/hot summers. With a builders discount, these bags cost $45+tax With your big BCM(Ineedxmasmoney) Discount, Im letting em go for $30/bag merry-xmas!
Heres the specs: Knauf R19 thermal/accustical fiberglass insulation.
Unfaced- 6 1/2" x 24" x 96" 9batts/bag 144sq.ft.per bag
Faced-6 1/4" x 23" x 48" 18batts/bag 138sq.ft.per bag
I have: 7 bags of the unfaced
4 bags kraft(faced)
This is enough insulation to do a few big attics, a huge garage, or remodel an entire house.
This stuff pays for itself in a few winter months, not to mention how much warmer,quieter, and cooler in summer too. good stuff

As is, this stuff would be too thick for 2x4 framing. But this is what I used in my walls as well as floors/ceilings. Its real easy to peel/pull off 2-3" to desired thickness. Can be cut w/scissors or rasor knife & straight edge. Its a little bit of trimming for 16" on center walls- but the price is right. I also have big rolls of plastic, good for eliminating drafts $15 new; $20 for both. One roll could do a whole house.
