5 Measure5 Attic Ins. R-38 Components A1 Comment. Attic Insulation Insulation should cover the entire area intended for insulation without voids or edge gaps. Insulation will be adequately marked for depth a minimum of every 300 square feet of attic area, with measurement beginning at the air barrier. All electrical junction boxes will be flagged to be seen above the level of the insulation. Open electrical junction boxes will have covers installed. Insulation dams and enclosures will be installed as required Insulation should be protected from air migrating around and through it by an effective air barrier. Air sealing attics should precede attic insulation and this may require removing existing insulation and debris that currently prevents air sealing. Penetrations and chases sealed to prevent air leakage and moisture movement between the attic and conditioned space. Sealants will be compatible with their intended surfaces. Sealants will allow for differential expansion and contraction between dissimilar materials. Sealants will be continuous and meet fire barrier specifications, according to authority having jurisdiction. Box around recessed light fixtures and exhaust fans with fire rated sheetrock to prevent overheating and/or fire. The entire closure will maintain a 3" clearance between the closure and the fixture including wiring, box, and ballast. Install collars or dams around masonry chimneys, B-vent chimneys, and manufactured chimneys after sealing the air leaks around them. Rolled Metal is to be used as a barrier around heat-producing devices masonry chimney, b vent chimneys and as separation barrier or dam such as garage from conditioned area. It must be fastened securely to the ceiling joist so the barrier won t collapse or move.. Only non-combustible sealant will be used in contact with chimneys, vents, and flues. Gaps around combustion exhaust flues need to be sealed. Sealed penetrations and chases should utilize high-temperature materials. High-temperature caulking & 26-gauge steel sheeting. Barriers should extend at least 4 inches above the insulation and be secured to keep insulation a minimum of 3 inches away from the heat-producing device. All-fuel wood-stove chimneys should have ventilated insulation shields. Insulation will not be allowed between a heat-generating appliance and a dam unless material is rated for contact with heat generating sources. NOTE: IF ANY of the previously listed items cannot be inspected or seen from the attic access the contractor is REQUIRED to provide PICTURES showing the proper preparation is completed before installing insulation. If HVAC system is located in attic area and installing insulation, contractor must install rolled metal as a barrier around the area to prevent insulation from entering location of unit. The metal should be secured to framing and be 4 above the insulation. Covering recessed light fixtures: Covering recessed light fixtures with fireresistant drywall or sheet-metal enclosures reduces air leakage and allows insulation to be blown around the box. If you plan to cover an electrical junction box with insulation, mark its location with a sign, flag, or other marker.. Refer to Tennessee Housing Development Agency Standard Work Page 5 of 11

6 INSULATION CERTIFICATE Whenever insulation is installed in the attic, the Contractor must provide a certificate. A dated receipt signed by the installer will be provided that includes: Insulation type Coverage area R-value Installed thickness and settled thickness Number of bags installed in accordance with manufacturer specifications One copy left in the attic entrance, One copy to client, One copy to agency. Provide occupant with copies of all documentation. BAFFLES NEEDED- 72 LIN. FT. 2 X 4 24" O.C. 4/12 PITCH Install baffles to prevent insulation from entering soffit area. A baffle should be installed in every joist or truss bay. These devices should maximize the amount of insulation that may be installed over top plates without clogging ventilation path. Allow a standard two inch gap for airflow through eave Baffles should be securely fastened to prevent movement over time. Once baffles are properly installed, insulation can be placed against them. Refer Tennessee Housing Development Agency Standard Work ATTIC ACCESS/HATCH DAM OR "ENERGY LID" Cut in the ceiling an attic access door 22 x 30. If unable to achieve, then opening must be equal to 660 square inches 22" x 30". An attic access door is installed as a complete unit. A door is inclusive of foam seal, trim, paint (1st quality semi gloss color to be chosen by homeowner, caulk, and insulation on hatch lid to match existing insulation depth of attic after insulation is installed. Build an insulation dam around the attic access hatch. Build the dam with rigid materials like plywood ¾ or better so the dam supports the weight of the person entering or leaving the attic. Weather-strip the attic access to air seal the access and provide uninterrupted air barrier between the attic and conditioned space. Do not cut the framing member to install a hatch without approval from a local agency, a structural engineer, and local codes enforcement if applicable. When using blown type insulation build an insulation dam around the attic access hatch. The attic access hatch cover or panel access door should match R-value of attic insulation. Using Foam Board to meet R-value of attic. The dam s purpose is to prevent loose-fill insulation from falling out of the attic hatch when opened. All attic hatches must have a locking device that securely hold the access in place and slightly compresses the weather-stripping. Install latches, sash locks, gate hooks or other positive closure to provide substantially airtight hatch closure. Refer to Tennessee Housing Development Agency Standard Work Page 6 of 11

8 Measure6 Floor Ins. R-19 Components F1 Comment FLOOR INSULATION Sealing the floor system will be completed before insulating Ensure airtight envelope. Locate gaps around penetrations for plumbing, electrical, etc. Fill gaps greater than 1/4 inch with backer rod or spray foam. Caulk smaller gaps and use backer-rod to hold in place. Be alert to high-temperature flues and chimneys and use appropriate sealants and materials. Subfloor will be insulated in complete contact with the floor without gaps, voids, compressions, misalignments, or wind intrusions. If kraft-faced batts are used, they will be installed with Kraft facing to the air barrier Insulation will be installed to prescribed R-value. Ensure insulation remains in contact with subfloor and air barrier. Batts should have full contact with subfloor without being compressed. Install insulation rods 16 on center to support insulation. Twine fastened across bays in a zig-zag pattern can also be used to secure insulation. Whenever insulation is installed in the crawl space, the Contractor must provide a certificate. A dated receipt signed by the installer will be provided that includes: Insulation type Coverage area R-value Installed thickness and minimum settled thickness Number of bags installed in accordance with manufacturer specifications. One copy left in the basement crawlspace entrance, One copy to client, One copy to agency. Provide occupant with copies of all documentation. Contractor must Post sign inside of the crawl space to provide essential safety and maintenance information to occupant and users of the crawl space. Those entering the crawl space will be cautioned not to damage the air barrier, ground moisture barrier, insulation, and mechanical components specific to the crawl space type. Anyone entering the crawl space will be alerted that immediate repairs are needed in case of damage. Installer contact information will be included on the sign in case there are questions or needs for repairs.
