Published: September 12, 2012 By: Dave Toht There’s a right way and a wrong way for insulating your crawl space, depending on where you live. Do you know the difference? We do — read on! If your furnace is going full blast and you still have cold feet, the culprit may be your crawlspace insulation. Take a look under your house.
