Default Re: Insulation mistake ???

Probably. Packing it to tight reduces the insulating factor. I would go and get insulation that is 3 5/8" thick. Will fit nice between the inner and outer walls. You can use what you have by tearing it and stuffing it into the panels. Pack it loosely but full, untill you get a thickness of about the stud depth. Compressing it a little won't hurt. Good luck.

Whoops, I didn't see you had it done. Try it see how it works. Test random spots with the infra red thermometer.
