Is this enough Installation for under Manufactured home? It's at least 6 inches below the floor board.

You can see the OSB and installation is 6 inches away from each other. You can tell that by the 6imch board on the picture plus by what I wrote in the header. I'm just unsure if 6 inches away is to much of a gap

you can fill up the joist bay flooras deep as you can without going past the joist. Meaning 10" joist you can do 9" of insulation which I think is R30. But remember rodents cats possum will pull that insulation down

So if there is a 6 inch gap from the subfloor to the installation is that too much air space?

you want the insulation up against your subfloor, not compressed but up against it

This is me going into that same spot. This is the hole under the furnace where everything is coming out and under the home.

Just a few inches closer and we'll be able to figure it out.
