My suggestion- stop Thermal Bridging with Hemp Insulation! Sustainable-Eco Friendly - Hemp is the Future of Green Buildings. https://stlouisrenewableenergy.blogspot.com/2016/12/home-fire-repair-and-remodel.html… thermal bridging is eliminating heat and cold transfer into a product aka insulation

Here is a simple example of how Thermal Bridging is stopped with Insulation. Most Kitchen Utensil products have a handle made of wood, silicone, or rubber. Those handles keep our hands from getting burned by the heat of Stove.

Eliminating and Reducing Thermal Bridging is KEY and Number 1 requirement for reducing the Heating and Cooling requirements for a Building. aka: Money Saver. Sustainable Hemp Insulation Eliminates Heat and Cold from entering a building. example https://stlouisrenewableenergy.blogspot.com/2016/12/home-fire-repair-and-remodel.html…

Thermal Bridging / Thermal Performance with various insulation examples: Insulation and Thermal Performance https://stlouisrenewableenergy.blogspot.com/2010/10/insulation-and-thermal-performance.html?spref=tw… Thermal Performance is how well the insulation works.
