Attic Rafters / 1/8” Low-E Insulation
This installation below is for retrofitting rafters as an energy upgrade. Low-E Insulation is installed across the bottom face of the rafter. Proper
ventilation must be maintained. Measure rafter area to determine square footage of Low-E Insulation required (length x width). Roll out material and
fasten to bottom of rafter face with ½” staples approximately every 6 inches. We suggest starting at the peak and working down to the eave. Leave
approximately ½” space at the peak for ventilation. All adjoining seams must be taped securely with Low-E tape, unless a staple flange product is
used. To prevent insulation from falling from rafters, ESP recommends using lathe strips, metal banding or fireproof fiberglass strips for added
