PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.01 INSTALLATION
A. Before beginning installation work, carefully check previously installed work
for defects that would be detrimental to insulation installation. Do not
proceed until satisfactory conditions are in -place. Check particularly for
conditions of dampness and excessive porosity, or irregularity of surfaces
which would prevent a correct installation. Application constitutes acceptance
of suitable conditions.
B. Before installing attic insulation, inspect the attic space to verify that tops of
all plumbing and party walls have been closed and that all spaces, holes and
gaps that might permit insulation to fall into walls and allow air infiltration
have been covered or plugged. Make sure that insulation baffles are in place
at eave conditions prior to start of work.
C. Insulation installed in accordance with current printed recommendation of
insulation manufacturer. Fit batt insulation snugly between framing without
any voids. Insulate small spaces between framing without any voids. Insulate
small spaces between closely spaced framing members. Cut and fit around
pipes, conduits and other penetrations. Where pipes occur, place insulation
between exterior wall and pipe. Do not install torn, punctured or otherwise
damaged material. Insulation installed continuous, except unfaced behind
moisture resistant board at tub/shower exterior walls per TCA
recommendations, fit tightly without any gaps or voids present. Blowing wool
installed in strict accordance with manufacturer's recommendations so that
required thickness for R-values is measured after settlement.
