I’m a dyi-er. Our 20 x 8 porch has a cathedral ceiling that is now ready for insulation. The framing insp. wants baffales for a 1 inch air flow space over the insul. But the front of the porch has what I believe are called lookouts for where the plywood roof is nailed on.
How do I deal with air flow in this bay?
Thanks for any input.

I think you're not getting any replies because the scenario you describe is unclear. I picture baffles as going over the top of the rafters, under the sheathing, to prevent the rafters from blocking the air flow from rafter-bay to rafter-bay. Or under the rafters, but before the ceiling sheathing or drywall, for the same purpose. Either way, I don't see the lookouts as being a factor. Perhaps you could supply a sketch?
