I am gonna have to watch some of these newer homes getting all foam or "air tight" insulation jobs.
I see them going up but never paid much attention.

I do know I can tell a lot about a homes insulation when there is snow and or ice on the roof.
It's kinda a tell tell sign of just how well the insulation job went, especially soffit and baffle work.

I can see what they are after in the illustration but not so sure I want to heat and cool all that attic space to achieve it.
