Can ceiling batts be used in walls?

0

Ceiling batts are too thick and not rigid enough to be fitted into studs without compression (and subsequent R-value). Wall batts have a water repellent added whereas ceiling batts don’t. Where higher R-values are required, the use of an R2.0 glasswool or rockwool wall batt is required along with EnviroSeal fixed to the outside of the stud.
