A. Is it the best?

B. Is it just not made much anymore?

C. Am I just a victim of advertisement as a child. Pink Panther commercials as a boy with Owens scorning insulation. Still stuck in my head years later making me think I need Pink insulation?

Just looking for standard Batts. R-13. 15” wide by 32 feet rolls.

All types of insulation have supply issues the last few months.

Any place to order online? For the same price as Lowes/Home Depot?

I used something called ecobatt by Knauf. Same r value and comparable price that was readily available at home depot. Works the same as any other batt or roll insulation, it's just brown instead of pink. (A little less itchy too which was a nice surprise)

What did ecobatt mean? Just zero formaldehyde?

Because I just want fiberglass.

hurricane ida rebuilders cleared out inventory for the whole south east area so warehouses cant resupply

add to that, covid and biden doubling the price of gas nation wide, have shut down most transportation in the country to a virtual crawl

You need to give Owens Corning a call - they really do have people that can tell you the truth about it being unavailable.
