Hey TI peoples...
I'm reviewing all my options for my new home in Yorba Linda and wanted to get some feedback on some insulation upgrades. Currently, I get r-30 ceiling insulation, which is pretty good. For about $800, I can upgrade the ceiling insulation to r-38. I figure during the heat of the summer (can get well into the upper 90's even low 100's in YL), I can recoup that cost in about 5 years or less. Is it worth the upgrade?
They also offer Exterior Wall Insulation upgrade from r-13 to r-15, which doesn't seem like much and it's about $1k to upgrade.
Which, if any, upgrade(s) will give me the best ROI? Any insight is appreciated!!
