<div class="moz-cite-prefix"> Yes, Roxul looks like a great
choice. Canadian Home Depot stores list their residential product
at comparable prices to fiberglass. <br>
I was able to find the commercial Roxul products from a
distributor here in Sacramento (I'm in Nevada), and they were
happy to accept a large order (roughly a full 53' container load)
for Roxul's residential product. However, the factory told them
they would not sell the residential product in the U.S.<br>

The Roxul Comfortboard has been gaining steam and reputation
as a replacement for the plastechhh foam boards. Much lower
GHG potential and toxicity, doesn’t burn (made of recycled
steel and volcanic rock), deals with vapor and water nicely,
tight, quiet, and Roxul is picking up documentation on hanging
it. Only downside is availability in your area may still be
dicey. <br>
