Walls – the best removable insulation material

crackinsulationrepairwalls

There is a crack in a wall that I would like to fill with some removable insulation.

It must be removable, as such it should just be a temporary solution.

I know of rockwool and glasswool, but don't know which is best, or if there exist other types.

Which should I get and stump the crack with?

You can use Backer Rod to fill in the crack if it is not too wide. Backer rod is an easy to compress rope-like celled foam and should be easy to remove at a later date. It is mainly used to fill deep cracks before caulking to give support to the caulk.

Backer rod comes in a variety of diameters and should be able to be found at your local building supply store.
