What is Pitched Roof Insulation?

Definition

Pitched roof insulation is installed between, over, or under rafters, enhancing thermal performance and reducing heat loss.

Benefits

  • Energy Savings: Reduces heat loss through sloped roofs.
  • Moisture Protection: Works with VCLs to prevent condensation.
  • Flexible: Compatible with warm or cold roof designs.

Applications

  • ECO/MA, XtroLiner, Safe-R, and Thin-R boards for pitched roofs.
  • Loft conversions, new builds, and retrofits.

Best Practice Tips

  • Ensure complete coverage to prevent thermal bridging.
  • Use tongue-and-groove PIR boards for tight joints.
