FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the price of Knauf insulation per roll?

Knauf insulation prices vary according to thickness, roll coverage, stock availability and order quantity.

The four Earthwool Ceiling Roll thicknesses are 50mm, 75mm, 100mm and 135mm. Each has different square-metre coverage and a different cost per roll.

Compare the Knauf insulation prices listed above, or request a quotation for your project.

How do I calculate how many rolls I need?

Measure your ceiling area by multiplying its length and width in metres. Add the areas together if you have multiple rooms.

Divide the required square metres, including any cutting allowance, by the coverage of your chosen Knauf roll. Always round up to a complete roll.

For example, a 50m² ceiling with a 5% cutting allowance requires 52.5m² of insulation. With 135mm Knauf covering 9m² per roll, you would need 6 rolls.

Use our Knauf insulation calculator to work out your quantity.

Which Knauf thickness is best for my ceiling?

The most appropriate thickness depends on your existing insulation, the roof construction, thermal requirements and available ceiling space.

135mm Knauf Earthwool has an R-value of 3.38, the highest thermal resistance among the four products offered on this website.

The other thicknesses offer R-values of 2.50 (100mm), 1.88 (75mm) and 1.25 (50mm).

You can compare their characteristics in our Knauf insulation thickness guide .

Can Knauf insulation be installed in existing homes?

Yes. Knauf Earthwool Ceiling Roll can be installed in many existing homes where the roof construction and ceiling access are suitable.

Before installation, the existing insulation, roof ventilation, access restrictions, electrical fittings and general ceiling condition should be assessed.

We handle Knauf ceiling insulation installation enquiries for Johannesburg, Pretoria and Centurion.

Is Knauf insulation suitable for South Africa's climate?

Knauf Earthwool Ceiling Roll is designed to provide thermal insulation for pitched roofs insulated at ceiling level.

Properly specified and installed ceiling insulation helps reduce heat transfer, limiting unwanted heat gain in summer and heat loss during winter.

The appropriate thickness depends on the building's climate zone and the complete roof or ceiling construction.

The insulation's product R-value alone does not establish compliance with South African building regulations.
