Insulation thickness directly affects the cost of insulation and the yearly cost of fuel for houses, both of which can be minimized by the use of the proper thickness indicated by the accompanying charts. Variations in costs for different thicknesses are clearly shown, and the home builder or buyer can easily choose the thickness that will give minimum, or near-minimum, costs. (Author)
