  • @SawHorseDesignBuild
    @SawHorseDesignBuild Před 14 dny

    You had a fastener for the ROCKWOOL, then one for the Delta, then one for the lath. The last 2 layers of fasteners seemed to be metal, which would cause many thermal breaks. Would you want to add thicker ROCKWOOL to account for the loss of effective R-Value with all the fasteners in your climate zone? STO has a product that works with ROCKWOOL and has fewer thermal breaks. I have yet to try it, but it looks promising.

    • @yotube123454321
      @yotube123454321 Před 2 měsíci

      house wrap would be difficult to install over rockwool since you can't staple into the rockwool or use any of the self-adhered house wraps to stick it to the rockwool. Additionally, sandwiching the house wrap between the plywood and the rockwool protects the housewrap from the elements more which is important since that's providing your air and water barrier. The rockwool doesn't mind getting wet so it's fine that it's not protected by the house wrap.

    what does the lifetime of both the rockwool and the panel look like if its completely exposed to elements? how about ina crawlspace?

  • @DitDitDitDahDahDahDitDitDit

    No one talks about this, but if you have a siding which is a poor heat conductor shading your true wall, not in contact with the exterior wall, especially if it is vented allowing for air flow behind it [heat dissipation], and out the top, you’ve given your house a parasol. Someone tell Matt Risinger we have a new catch word, please. This parasol will block incoming radiant energy. This isn’t an equilibrium R value, it’s reducing the intensity of the incoming heat source, the sun, that’s beaming down on your building. I’d like to see a heat transfer engineer look at some of these things and make a few back of the envelope calculations.

    • @amiller8822
      @amiller8822 Před měsícem

      You’re wanting to block access to the gap made by the rainscreen, which is the same gap/plane as the battens or furring strips. So no, you want the bug screen to be folded under/over the furring strips, not behind.
