I have a family room in my house that is basically 3 outside walls. One wall faces my uninsulated garage, another the side of my house and the back wall is the back of my house with a florida room. The back wall also has a woodburning fireplace. There is wood paneling lining all of the walls. The room is very cold in the winter and I think more insulation would help. The existing stuff looks very thin. It's maybe 2" thick and it looks like yellow fiberglass type with foil backing. I'm ripping down the paneling and putting up drywall and I'm trying to determine what the existing R-value is and what I should add to make it a little better. I know the wood fireplace is a huge air draft that just sucks heat out. I plan on putting in a gas insert to make that more efficient. Here is a link to a couple of pics I took of the insulation.
TIA
