A new cutting edge solution for both Vented and Unvented High Performance Attics.

EcoBatt® Integrated Roof Deck (IRD) Insulation

ECOBATT® THERMAL+ ACOUSTICAL INSULATIONEcoBatt Insulation is the proven insulation solution preferred by professional installers. It’s highly resilient, recovers quickly to full thickness and delivers consistent quality that cuts easily and installs fast with low dust. When installed in ceiling and floor systems, it reduces sound transmission in the home. EcoBatt IRD insulation offers even more.

Time Savings• Proprietary installation method

that is labor efficient compared to competitive solutions

• Installation is the same for all

R-values; same stapling pattern,

utilizes same pneumatic

or cordless stapler and same

staple size ¼" crown & ½" leg• Installs straight out of the bag with

no special preparation

Innovation• Helps deliver an easily

attainable Quality Insulation Installation (QII) installation

• Provides a uniform layer of continuous insulation underneath the roof deck that envelops the truss chords, creating a thermal break

• Attractive finished appearance

Ease of Use• Requires no specialized

equipment or trucks• Easy handling for overhead

installations• Custom facing is designed to

secure the batt to the roof deck

HIGH PERFORMANCE UNVENTED ATTICS (R-38 IRD) Potential Cost Savings vs Vented Attics

• Eliminates ceiling insulation

• Eliminates O’Hagin’s or ridge vents

• Eliminates soffit, gable vents

• Eliminates radiant barrier where required

IRD provides the insulation component of an unvented attic assembly. Air sealing the attic is another important component of the unvented attic and special attention should be given to the critical areas listed below:

• Roof deck

• Gable ends

• Eaves

• Any roof penetrations

Compliance Credits• 2.4–6.2% compliance credits over

HIGH PERFORMANCE VENTED ATTICS (R-19 IRD) New code requirements offer insulation options for vented attics—where HVAC systems and water heaters are often placed in states where basements are not standard. EcoBatt IRD insulation is an economical solution to support the Title 24 Option B High-Performance Attic Prescriptive Method code requirements.

Defining California’s Title 24 Code RequirementsTitle 24, Section: 150.1(c).1.ii— Option B High-Performance Vented Attic A minimum R-value of insulation installed between the roof rafters in contact with the roof deck and an additional layer of ceiling insulation located between the attic and the conditioned space. The EcoBatt IRD solution applies to California's climate zones 4 and 8–16.

Compliance Credits• 1–3% compliance credits over R-13 wired

SUSTAINABILITYKnauf Insulation’s products used for thermal insulating purposes recover the energy that it took to make them in just hours or days, depending on the application. Once installed, the product continues to save energy and reduce carbon generation as long as it is in place.

Fiberglass insulation with ECOSETechnology contains three key ingredients:• Recycled glass content, verified

annually by UL Environment• Sand, one of the world’s most

abundant resources• Our green chemistry initiative ECOSE

Technology, which is validated to be formaldehyde-free

PRODUCT FEATURESProven Performance• Preferred by professional installers

concerned with quality, appearance and productivity

• Excellent acoustical properties reduce sound transmission in the home when properly installed

Superior Handling• Highly resilient insulation recovers

quickly to full thickness for a snug fit and superior finished aesthetics

• Consistent quality materials made of resilient fibers cut easily, and install fast with low dust

• Durable facing resists tears and is marked in one-foot increments for faster field-fabrication

SPECIFICATION COMPLIANCE• ASTM C665;

Type II, Class C, Category 2 • California Energy Commission

FIBERGLASS AND MOLDFiberglass insulation will not sustain mold growth. However, mold can grow on almost any material when it becomes wet and contaminated. Carefully inspect any insulation that has been exposed to water. If it shows any sign of mold, it must be discarded. If the material is wet, but shows no evidence of mold, it should be dried rapidly and thoroughly. If it shows signs of facing degradation from wetting, it should be replaced.
