Home Style Green

In this episode of Home Style Green, I discuss the basic physics of insualation. I give an overview of the three main types of heat transfer, that is conduction, convection and radiation. Most bulk insulation products on the market rely almost entirely on reducing conduction.  I discuss what 'R-Value' means and the common materials of household insulation products.  For more information, visit our site at:  http://www.homestylegreen.com Also, for a more indepth discussion on insulation and 'R-Values', its hard to go past Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)
