The Simple Bag-Check Formula
As shown on Side 2 of the brochure: Required Bags = Area ÷ Coverage per bag. Test your own attic or building to see how many bags should be installed.
Settled thickness for R-50: approximately 18.0″
Romulus Guaranteed Bag Count
We leave empty bags or documented counts on every job site so you can verify the math yourself against manufacturer charts.
Job Material Requirement
Based on 1,500 sq ft at R-50
Coverage rate: ~16.5 sq ft per bag
Coverage rate: ~33.5 sq ft per bag
What Every Property Owner Should Know
Ventilation & Ice Dams
Insulation and ventilation perform distinct roles. Clear rafter baffles keep soffit intake airflow open so heat can escape through ridge vents rather than melting snow on eaves and generating destructive ice dams.
Thickness vs Fluffing
Disreputable operators fluff insulation with too much air to mimic 20+ inches using half the required material. The only real verification is the physical bag count matched to manufacturer square-footage ratings.
The 1/R Heat Loss Math
Heat transfer through an insulation layer is proportional to 1/R. Moving from R-20 to R-40 halves conductive heat loss. Moving from an uninsulated R-5 ceiling to R-60 saves vast amounts of annual energy.
