Can I Use House Wrap without Insulation?


by DoItYourself Staff

House wrap is a product that goes around the outside of their homes underneath siding. Most types of house wrap on the market are a very thin piece designed to prevent moisture from getting in to the structure of the house. However, this material also plays a role in insulating your home. While you can get a thinner house wrap, it will most likely still provide some type of insulating capabilities. The insulating properties of this material are minimal and will not make a huge difference in most cases.
