Bauherr3020 Dec 2017 06:34Hello everyone,
I’m currently working on a new build and have nearly finished my roof. The insulation consists of 60mm (2.4 inches) wood fiber boards on the rafters and 240mm (9.4 inches) insulation between the rafters.
I chose a PE foil with an Sd value of 100 and have already installed it. However, after reading more about it, I’m having some doubts about the foil. Can someone help clarify this for me, or should I remove it and install a vapor control membrane instead? That would be a huge amount of extra work now.
Thanks for your answers.
