Session 3: Roofs

Insulation options for attics including the use of spray polyurethane foam insulation, inverted roof membrane assemblies, flash-and-fill, and more traditional approaches will be presented. Phenomena such as night sky cooling, ice damming, and attic condensation will be described, and other factors affecting performance will be discussed (effective ventilation requirement, controlling mechanical discharge locations and re-configuring home design to take advantage of conditioned attic spaces for alternate purposes such as mechanical system installation and even storage.

Why take this session? Our team constantly seeks out information and testing from around the world. We work closely with some of the biggest research projects in Building Science and our reputation as the Guardians of Part 9 is growing throughout North America. ***Please see our website for a full course description under What's On Top 2020/2021***
