Did you report the diminished R factor after you wasted all that insulation? Used to be R-30, now it's R-12. . .

Had the same thing happen to me while inspecting an attic over a garage. Polystyrene bead foam insulation poured from the attic and then it began to stick to everything (static) including me, what a mess.

Now we will all use bed sheets under the ladder to protect the floor.

I've never had that much fall out.
