A referendum to place the duties of the Recorderâs Office into the County Clerkâs Office was passed by the voters of McLean County on November 6, 2012 and took effect December 31, 2013.
Depending on where you live, itâs recommended that attics have a minimum R-value of R-30 in warm climates to R-60 in cold climates. Recommended Insulation by Climate. By dividing the recommended R-value for your area by the R-value of your particular type of insulation, you find that an attic should have on average: Warm Climates (R-30 to R-49): 1  Fiberglass (blown): 14â â 18â. 2  Fiberglass (batts): 11â â 14â. 3  Cellulose (blown): 11â â 13â. 4  Rock Wool (loose): 12â â 18â. 5  Foam (sprayed): 5â â 11â.
Nevertheless we have Code bodies mandating R-values of 20s or 30s or 40s. But a fiber insulation with an R-value of 25 placed in an improperly sealed house will allow wind to blow through it as if there were no insulation. Maybe the R-value is accurate when the material is lab tested.
