While the thermal R-Value of R2.5 insulation may exceed the requirements for a typical home in a moderate Australian climate zone, it is commonly used as effective acoustic insulation in internal walls. Consider utilizing hi-density R2.5 insulation between the walls of bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as in any external walls facing major roads, to minimize noise disturbances.
SoundScreen is a versatile product that can be utilized in any room of the house, making it a valuable addition to your insulation strategy.

Installing Tips from No Gap Insulation
When it comes to installing glasswool insulation, it is relatively straightforward as long as you follow the necessary precautions. To cut the insulation batt, a long-bladed sharp knife is sufficient, and the timber studs and joists often serve as suitable backing for the cutting process. However, it is crucial to exercise caution and ensure you stay far away from any wiring. Never slice towards your hand or body to avoid any potential injuries. A retractable blade knife with a snap-off blade is an excellent tool for this purpose. After using the knife for some time, you may notice the blade becoming dull. Installers often utilize the intersecting wall studs and noggins to secure the blunted end of the knife and snap off the worn-out portion of the blade.
