Ser-ng the North Sh -e since 1969

UESTION: During the recent cold snap, we found our floors very cold. We five in a rancher built on a crawl space foundation with our furnace focated on the main floor. Is there any way to warm up the Noors during a

cold period?

h NSWER:

Floors over crawl spaces can be made warmer by insulating the subfMoor between the joists as well as applying rigid foam insulation to the perimeter concrete walls. If a concrete floor has nol been poured a vapour barrier should be added to the floor.

Apply rigid foara 1 1/2" thick to the perimeter concrete walls tight to the underside of the floor joists and down the wall two feet below outside grade level. This may be applied to the wall using PL 300 Bulldog Grip adhesive. Apply R-20 bait insulation between the joists above the exterior concrete walls. Then apply 6 mil poly over batts and scal to joist using accoustic adhesive caulking. (Note: Leave venied bulk heads void of insulation as vents must be open in summer and

closed in winter.)

Now, using duct tape - iape all joints in forced air duct system and apply reflectix insulation using staple

tab profile between the juists.

The reflectix will reflect heat loss back up through P the subfloor into your living area.

This same process may be used for electric heated homes by omitting taping of duct joints.
