reinsulates
Restores thermal barrier
To reinsulate is to insulate again—typically replacing or adding insulation to a building, pipe, or wire that was previously insulated but has degraded or become inadequate: We reinsulated the attic after the old fiberglass compressed.
The work usually aims to improve energy efficiency or meet updated building codes.
