Helpful Insulation Installation Tips
- Always check local building codes before
installing TempShield™.
- Check the area you are insulating and make any
needed repairs before you begin. Any worn wiring
should be replaced before you begin installing
TempShield™.
- TempShield™ was designed to work best when an
air space of at least 1/2" to 3/4" has been used.
- Unroll the TempShield™ as you work, cutting it
to suitable lengths with scissors or a utility
knife.
- Do not work in areas such as attics when
temperatures are too hot.
- Make sure work areas are well ventilated and
well lighted.
- Always use eye protection when operating staple
guns.
- Use caution and common sense when using a
stapling gun. Be aware of where electrical wiring is
located as it relates to the insulation project.
Stapling into a wire can cause severe shock or
death. Do not staple into electrical wiring.
- Be careful when working with large pieces of
TempShield™ on windy days.
- When working with TempShield™ on bright sunny
days, it is best to wear sun glasses.
Taping Tips
- NEVER USE DUCT TAPE.
- Apply to a clean, dry surface.
- Apply tape evenly over all seams. Use a flat
edged object when applying and add pressure against
the tape to achieve the best adhesion.
- When applying to an area where moisture or
condensation is a concern, use an acrylic based
adhesive tape.
