Question:

what is the best insulation batts to use in the ceiling?

wool /foil/fibtreglassim lost what would be the best as in cooler at summer and warmer in winter

Answer:

Fiberglass is the best. You can either go with batts or loose fill, which is blown in. 14 of loose fill gives you R-38, as does 13 of batts. Hope this helps.
fiberglass for sure. Foil-faced batt insulation is often used in cathedral ceilings because it has a 0.5 perm rating, providing the permeability rating often required for use in ceilings without attic spaces. A vent baffle should be installed between the insulation and the roof decking to maintain the ventilation channel.
