Additional Insulation Information
Insulating The Roof With Insulation Board
Use the dimensions on the
1.
Diagram XXIX
to lay out a full-scale pattern on a piece of cardboard. Cut the pattern out
and use it to check the fit between rafters. Make sure to space your rafters so that the center of the rafter is exactly
at the center of its respective crotch when determining the fit of your sample pattern. Check several locations. You
may have to make slight adjustments, since the hole spacing in the center ring (for the rafter pins) sometimes varies
slightly.
Place your pattern on a sheet of insulation board. With a
2.
sharp
knife trace the pattern on the board and then remove
the pattern and finish cutting the panel. The remaining short pieces can be cut out of scrap and taped on using duct
tape or glued on using a construction adhesive.
If you are using an insulation material that is not rated for exposed insulation, it is important to cover it with a flame-
3.
retardant fabric before installing it, or install a flame retardant liner onto the underside of the rafters to cover the
insulation.
Either quarter round, 1” x 2” or some other molding fastened along the bottom edge of the rafters will hold the
4.
insulation panels in place.
The rafters can be spread apart to allow easy installation of the panels. The last panel can be installed by loosening
5.
the top cover and inserting from the outside.
