Best Insulation?

Is your house correctly insulated???

Aim

Our aim is to find out how using different insulation will be better for the earth, saving more energy.

Hypothesis

I think that the Batts will keep the most warmth in the container because the Batts is a very thick sort of material and also keeps the warmth in your house in the winter. On the other hand the one that I think will keep it cool is the control because there is nothing to keep it warm.

Materials4 ice Cream containers

1 cup of boiling water for each container

1 cup of freezing water for each container

4 thermometers

1 stopwatch

enough Sponge to cover the whole container

●2 layers of tin foil ( enough to cover the whole container )

Strong glue ( e.g. PVA)

enough pink Batts to cover the whole container

and one container kept normal for control

Variables

What we have done to change the test is doing the test in containers not beakers and using sponge and tin foil instead of  using sock.

Method

1. Drill a thermometer size hole in the top of all the containers.

3. Take the lid off the 4 containers and stick the insulation on the bottom of the

Application

If you have recently considered insulating your house, from my perspective, you should check out an insulation called Pink Batts or Batts because I have recently done a scientific test on which insulation is the best to suit your house. The reason I recommend
