Building the Shop - Part 25 - Fitting and Installing EPS Insulation and Vapour Barrier

3 months ago
79

In this episode, "Building the Shop - Part 25 - Fitting and Installing Insulation and Vapour Barrier", we are installing our Amvic Silverboard EPS Insulation.
This was a lot of fun working with my wife Katie and son Elijah as we insulate the base of the shop.
We cut all the corner pieces and got them all fitting together nicely.
I thought this process was going to be harder than it was but it turned out really well.
The EPS is very light and easy to move around.
All the gaps, corners and form walls now all have insulation. I really wish I would have talked to the Engineers to ensure that I could have also used in on the footings. I found out after that they do this themselves.
Oh well, what can I say? Next time. :)
We also installed the vapour barrier and taped it all exexcept for the bottom driveway corner. We don't want to create a pool so we want any rain water to be able to drain out.
We started building the rebar chairs outside the base and Elijah and I can just carry it over and set it in place.
Until the next one, keep Living the Northern Life!
