A method and/or system is provided that compensates for the flow of air
through fiberglass insulation. In certain example embodiments, a dynamic
heat flow meter or the like is provided for measuring and/or determining
any detrimental effects of air flow through insulation such as fiberglass
insulation. Once the possible detrimental effects are recognized, an
insulation system is adapted (e.g., by providing a foam based insulation
in a wall cavity in addition to the fiberglass insulation) to compensate,
or substantially compensate, for the effects of air flow through the
fiberglass. For instance, a sufficient amount of foam insulation may be
provided in a cavity adjacent fiberglass, where the foam blocks or
substantially blocks air from flowing through the cavity, thereby
compensating for the effects of air flow through fiberglass and
permitting the intended R-value to be maintained or substantially
maintained.
