PRODUCT DESCRIPTION PINK glass fibre thermal insulation, inorganic, pre-formed unfaced blankets, designed for friction-fit installation in frame cavities. Recommended Uses Glass fibre thermal insulation blankets may be installed in the following locations: Above ground steel or wood stud framed exterior walls. Interior side of below ground foundation walls with steel or wood framing. Floors above unheated exterior spaces and crawl spaces. Ventilated roof-spaces (or attics) above flat or sloped ceilings. Steel or wood stud framed roof parapets and curbs. Cathedral ceilings. Steel or wood stud framed interior partitions separating heated spaces from unheated or refrigerated spaces. To provide thermal resistance around openings in a building's exterior envelope. Glass fibre thermal insulation is GREENGUARD and SCS certified "Post-consumer": glass materials recycled from construction sites (demolition work, new construction and renovation) and from consumers' "blue boxes". "Post-industrial" (or "preconsumer"): glass recycled from glass manufacturing plants' waste (glass containers, flat glass and others). Includes materials that contribute to the reduction of dust and static electricity, ensuring a clean and easy installation.

Visit www.owenscorning.ca for a current copy of the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for "Low Density Fiber Glass Insulation - unfaced". for its "green" content (refer to TECHNICAL DATA) and can contribute to obtaining LEEDTM Certification credits when used as thermal insulation in a building submitted to the LEED CANADA-NC Green Building Rating System (refer to TABLE 2). Limitations Owens Corning does not recommend using PINK FIBERGLAS Thermal Insulation in the following locations: On the exterior side of intermediate sheathing of cavity walls and other locations exposed to water, humidity and wind. On the exterior side of foundation walls, whether above or below ground level. In locations where no vapour retarder is provided on the warm side of the insulation. Where it is impossible to provide clearances required by Codes and Regulations (building, electrical, gas and oil) between the insulation and heat-emitting appliances, chimneys, pipes, conduits and vents to these appliances (at least 50 mm) and between insulation and recessed light fixtures that are not encased in CSA-approved insulated boxes (at least 75 mm). PINK FIBERGLAS Thermal Insulation can also enhance the acoustical performance of an acoustic separation, but Owens Corning recommends using QuietZone Acoustic Batt Insulation; see QUIETZONE Data Sheet 09 81 16.16.OCC QUIETZONE.

Preparation Where there are soffit vents, take appropriate measures to prevent thermal batt insulation from blocking the air ventilation. Install Owens Corning raft-R-mate attic vents. Ensure cavities to be insulated have been inspected, notably: The installation of the support materials located on the cold side (plywood or gypsum boards or other sheathing type panels). Mechanical and electrical service lines passing in or through the wall cavities. Installation Blanket-type insulation must be installed so that at least one face is in full and continuous contact with cladding, sheathing, or some other membrane.

Insulation's contribution to the performance Insulation contributes significantly to the reduction of a building's energy demand. Global contribution depends on the design RSI value. PINK FIBERGLAS Thermal Batt Insulation (Candiac 0% post-industrial, 60+% post-consumer; Scarborough 10% post-industrial, 50+% post-consumer; Edmonton 0% post-industrial, 60+% post-consumer). Canadian insulation products originating from the 3 glass fibre plants (Candiac, Scarborough, Edmonton) contribute towards credits for this category. Glass fibre thermal insulation is also effective in reducing noise transfer through building assemblies. Additional comments The Project Manager is responsible for the energy analysis concerning the global energy efficiency of the building (ex. LEED standard form letter).
