 My house in Louisiana was built in 1945.
It has fire blocking every 2 ft up the walls.
It had a brick fireplace.Ashly wood heater now.
 My daughter's house in Oklahoma in was built 1943.It has gas heat. It has 2 fire blocks in every wall.
 So check your walls for fire block's before
you make up your mind what to do.
 I watched an old house get blown in insulation
one time .they had to drill lot's of hole's on the outside of the house then plug them after they were done.But it did do a good job of making it easier to heat and cool.
later
