Construction Grade Foil
Bubble Reflective
Insulation
Installation
Instructions
Unroll the
Weather ShieldTM Roll as you work,
and cut it to suitable
lengths. Allow for
proper ventilation - see
below. Staple Weather
ShieldTM Roll
to the undersides of
exposed rafters or
between the trusses.
Better ventilation in
the attic increases
comfort and helps the
materials of your home
last longer. Be sure not
to block ventilation
paths when you install
Weather ShieldTM Roll.
Installation
Instructions
Check the crawl space to
determine distance
between floor joists-
16" or 24" on-center.
Locate water pipes and
heating ducts which hang
below the floor joists.
They will need to be
insulated. Weather
ShieldTM Roll
Pipe Wrap and Duct
Insulation are designed
specifically for this
use. You do not need to
wrap water pipes or duct
work that fall between
floor joists. Weather
ShieldTM Roll
installed below will
provide adequate
insulating without
wrapping them. Install
starting at one end of
the house and face
staple Weather ShieldTM
Roll to the
bottom of the floor
joist. Leave enough
length so the insulation
can be pulled up to the
band board and stapled.
On the next run, face
staple to the bottom of
the floor joist. Overlap
tabs and seal with our
Foil Tape to create a
vapor barrier. At the
ends, staple up to the
sub-floor or band board.
Installation
Instructions
When main supports are
installed, you may
staple Weather ShieldTM
Roll 48"
Insulation horizontally
to the support beams.
Overlap and tape seams
and tape with our Foil
Tape. Be careful to
close gaps in the seams
as they will cause air
infiltration, which may
cause condensation.
Installation
Instructions
Install 1" x 2" wood
furring strips on the
bottom of and
perpendicular to the Z
purlins on 24" centers.
Use sheet metal screws
to secure the furring
strips to the Z purlins.
Overlap and tape furring
strips together and
tape. Staple tape for
reinforcement. Use 48"
wide Weather ShieldTM
Insulation and staple to
furring strips. You will
not need to cut the
Weather ShieldTM Insulation to
an exact size before
installing, since the
insulation is below the
Z purlins. Overlap and
tape seams and tape
together using Foil
Tape. Gaps will cause
air infiltration which
may cause condensation.
Prior to installation of
Weather ShieldTM Roll, inspect the
roof area for clutter -
water sprinkler systems,
power lines and lights.
Sprinkler systems are
especially important.
All water pipes must be
below the insulation to
prevent the possibility
of freezing in the
winter. In many
instances, the Weather
ShieldTM Roll
must be installed up
near the roof deck.
Installation
Instructions
Unroll Weather ShieldTM
Roll
Concrete Slab Insulation
over the sand or gravel,
clear poly side facing
up. Overlap and tape the
seams. Seal the seams
with 3" wide Poly Tape
or duct tape. All tape
should be applied firmly
while assuring good
adhesion. Install
radiant heating then
pour concrete over the
clear poly as usual.
Tip: Adding 1" of sand
over the Weather
ShieldTM Roll
Concrete Slab Insulation
will facilitate water
drainage and shorten the
actual curing time.
