Matt explains eight reasons he’s using Rockwool insulation on his own house he just built for his family. Take a look at these eight but be sure to dive into the full video for the details.

1. It’s made from rocks.

2. It’s fire resistant (rocks don’t burn!)

3. It’s vapor open so you can drive through the insulation.

4. Easy installation.

5. Can use spray paint on top of it after installations are installed, but before sheetrockers come. (Great for notes!)

6. Sound control qualities.

7. It’s hydrophobic

8. Particles that come off the insulation don’t stay airborne (versus insulation made of lighter materials).
