About insulation

In Edmonton, where the winters can be quite harsh, a higher R-value, like R16, would typically offer better insulation compared to R13, especially for exterior walls. R16 provides more resistance to heat loss, which can be beneficial in maintaining indoor temperatures and reducing energy costs during the cold months. However, R13 may still be acceptable for interior walls or in areas with less temperature fluctuation.

For exterior insulation, R16 or higher would be more suitable to improve energy efficiency, especially in colder climates like Edmonton.

 

4. Energy Efficiency:

• R16: More energy-efficient in retaining heat during winter and keeping out heat during summer.
• R13: Less energy-efficient than R16, but it is still a good option for less ex

In summary, R16 provides better insulatioR13 is thinner and more common for standard interior or exterior walls in milder climates.
