The insulation barrier may be supplied in roll form or in panel form. In one embodiment, the film may be provided with a plurality of small holes to permit moisture vapor to pass through under a differential pressure on opposite sides of the barrier. In still another embodiment, the substrate may be provided with spaced apart embossments while the film is provided with pockets receiving the embossments. The barrier has multiple uses as an insulation/vapor barrier for interior and exterior use on buildings including use in roofing, flooring and walls.Field of SearchDissimilar material sheet-form facingAdhering preformed sheet-form member Protection Sealing With retaining means penetrating insulating layer Layered barrier Wall of contacting layers Filler spaced from inside face of cavity Filler pieces within barrier frame (e.g., rafter, joist) Means (e.g., fastener) to position insulation via supporting means for the barrier Composite having voids in a component (e.g., porous, cellular, etc.) Void-containing component is synthetic resin or natural rubbers Of lamina to building or installed structure | |
