Rigid foam exterior insulation
I’m planning on installing foil backed rigid foam insulation to the outside of my new construction 2×6 OSB sheathed house as described in Fine Homebuilding’s “Save Energy with Rigid Foam Insulation” 2007. This article describes in some detail how the rigid foam is applied except it doesn’t go into any details on window and door flashing or if a house wrap is needed. Does anyone have any experience with this and would be able to advise me on how to handle these issues?
Thanks.
