My place was built in the mid 90s, and while there is *some* insulation in the ceiling, it's not enough - it doesn't look like it was great to begin with, and there's lots of gaps from being carelessly shoved out of place and not shoved back again. Even small gaps make a huge difference.

The recommended minimum R value for ceiling insulation is now R5. Mine's about half that, and will likely get improved by topping it up with a second layer at a 90 degree angle to minimise through-holes.
