A: Hello Daniel, R-13 is typically used in wall applications, the R-value requirement is dependent on local building codes. You can layer insulation and as long as the insulation is not compressed the R-value will be the two products added together. If laying you want to ensure the facing is not sandwiched between the two layers of insulation. Thank you for your inquiry!
