I have not been in a very long time and my vision seems a bit fuzzy as of late.  I thought it was best to get them fully checked out rather than just going to one of those places that just makes glasses.

My wife is having a tag sale at the house with all the junk that doesn't sell at the market.
I am going out to tag sales and looking at someones attic and giving them a price for adding insulation

... about insulation ...


I am told that my crawlspace should be insulated on the sides and bottom and the interior of the space should be open to the heat and air like the rest of the house.

What do you think of this "new thinking?"

I have four inch thick concrete, five feet deep, surrounded by solid building blocks all around the perimeter of the concrete, rising another four inches, whch the house sits on (with about forty pylons made of the same mareial). I have massive insulation against the flooring from undermeath, but I am told that I would be better off to allow the heater and air conditioner to enter the crawlspace and insulate the sidewalls better.

What do you think?

I live in Central Indiana. Sometimes it gets to twenty or thirty below, Fahrenheit, in winter. It also gets into the upper nineties for a couple of months every summer and occasionally over one hundred degrees.

Should I trust my construction "professional"  and allow him to do this work?

Would I be better to insulate the perimeter of my crawlspace and allow it to be a conditioned air space, all year long?

Going to work, presumably. No other plans yet.

Yes, it's a good idea.

You seem to have surprisingly bad insulation in the US, considering that the northern parts of the country are actually as cold as here.

Sorry didn't see this till now.  Insulating the walls is the way to go especially if there is plumbing or duct work in the crawlspace.  Make sure to deal with any moisture problems first though.  There are many ways of insulating the walls, be careful if he suggests spray foam especially if he doesn't mention that you have to stay out of the house 24-72 hours after the install.
