It's not surprising. Last year, I had to have an insulating crew return *five times* to correct their errors on an addition I built. Even then, I'd characterize the work as C- quality. The simple result of laziness and incompetence.

I heard Michael speak at an ASHI chapter seminar, a few years back. The guy is very passionate about insulation! I actually called him three months ago, regarding some issues in a new build. He was very helpful and knows his stuff!

Interesting article. I'm sure my cellulose was under-blown in the attic, but knowing the guy who did it I'm equally sure his error was following the manufacturers' flawed coverage charts. Nice little item to check on warranty inspections, no doubt.
