ENERTITE® is suitable for use in the sloping rafters of a building where it is typically sprayed between the roof timbers to the required depths in a room in roof or attic space scenario. Continuity of insulation from rafter to wall should be maintained at eaves level. For both non-breathable (HR) and breathable (LR) roofing felts it is recommended that the Foam Master, builder and designer satisfy requirements of BS 5250: 2011, Control of Condensation in Buildings and current Building Regulations for ventilation in buildings. Rafter slides must be installed between the rafters to maintain sufficient air paths between the membrane and insulation. For habitable rooms, installation of a vapour control layer and lining boards should be used on the inside of the rafters. Enertite is NSAI and BDA Agrément approved for this application.
