Foam Insulation Baffles 6x8
Baffles and ridge vents work together as a 2 pronged ventilation system to provide insulation to the roof. Ridge vents are installed on the top of the roof. A gable vent is also installed at each end of the ridge vent. The baffles are installed on the lower edge of the insulation, either under the insulation or next to it. This allows airflow up through the insulation which keeps it from getting wet or deteriorating before its time. The baffles also keep insulation from filling unwanted spaces in your attic, such as exterior walls or floors, by providing a barrier between conditioned and unconditioned areas.
What is Insulation Baffles used for? Insulation baffles are an important part of your attic insulation. They protect your attic from heat and moisture accumulation, and prevent insulation from blocking vents. No matter what kind of insulation you use to insulate your attic, baffles will make it perform better.
Baffles are a barrier that separates the conditioned and unconditioned space. This prevents insulation from reaching unwanted spaces, such as walls or exterior walls. Baffles are installed properly under roof or attic joists to allow airflow and keep insulation in place.
