They can expand and contract to suit normal variations in timber joist spacings . “The top of timber joists remain visible for cramping and adhering of floorboards . “Dished or draped roll foil over joists cause problems because the cramping of floorboards cannot occur, and there is no gluing bond for sheet particleboard to joists,” he commented . “Fibre batts need support, will be more expensive and more attractive to harbour vermin . ” He continued; “Concertina FOIL BATTS produce a high and consistent thermal performance in timber floors of Total R3 . 1(winter), reflecting back approx 97 per cent of downward radiant heat which raises floor temperatures typically by 3 - 4 degrees . “Consequently, less heating energy is required and running costs are reduced . “They can also be stapled in walls in place of R1 . 5 fibre batts and laid over R2 . 5 batts in ceilings, acting as a summer radiant heat barrier . “The Total R values for Concertina FOIL BATTS are calculated in accordance with the requirements of the new Insulation Standard AS/NZS 4859 . 1:2002 and the Aluminium Foil Insulation Association (AFIA) Guidelines . “Also, in June 2005, Concertina FOIL BATTS gained BENCHMARK Product Certification, which is one of a number of forms of evidence of product suitability recognised in the BCA,” Tim concluded . www . concertinafoilbatts . com TTN
