NZS4246:2016 specifies that a 250 micron polythene vapour barrier should be installed if this cannot be improved through drainage or ventilation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55ee2c20e4b02502c50364aa/1521855288896-3H8XM3HP6D26PPXIINCC/IMG_3900.JPG Christchurch Underfloor Insulation | Healthy Homes Compliance Guaranteed - Underfloor insulation - Retrofit R1.6 blanket Technobond R1.6 underfloor insulation installed here in a very typical property with a nice dry sub-floor https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55ee2c20e4b02502c50364aa/1521855129771-LEGOLJGQW575Q3NG1H0A/IMG_3728.JPG Christchurch Underfloor Insulation | Healthy Homes Compliance Guaranteed - Underfloor insulation - Retrofit R1.6 blanket Technobond R1.6 in all of it's purple glory. The keen-eyed observer will point out the gap to the left of the picture. This is actually a 100mm clearance for pipes that penetrate the floor, as required by NZS4246:2016. One of many requirements that can be overlooked by an untrained eye https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55ee2c20e4b02502c50364aa/1521855174913-4SORZGM8EDJ892FUNVSM/IMG_3729.JPG Christchurch Underfloor Insulation | Healthy Homes Compliance Guaranteed - Underfloor insulation - Retrofit R1.6 blanket This sub-floor is clearly dry and well ventilated as indicated by the piles of dust left by the installer's back as they crawled along. A vapour barrier is not required in this case. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55ee2c20e4b02502c50364aa/1521855181444-HJZTHT50YFTLL7GCB27U/IMG_3730.JPG Christchurch Underfloor Insulation | Healthy Homes Compliance Guaranteed - Underfloor insulation - Retrofit R1.6 blanket Care should be taken to minimise the heat loss around pipes that is a result of NZS4246:2016 clearance requirements. Here you can see the 100mm gap required is as big as neccessary but as small as practical. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55ee2c20e4b02502c50364aa/1521855020922-GUXE1UEUYDAS72HAHAWM/IMG_2974.JPG Christchurch Underfloor Insulation | Healthy Homes Compliance Guaranteed - Underfloor insulation - Retrofit R1.8 blanket This house received upgraded Mammoth R1.8 polyester insulation which is 115mm thick nominal. Stapled to joists after friction fitting, this insulation is still in place after a recent flood https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55ee2c20e4b02502c50364aa/1521855036983-N5V1K07WKWLNJSB3Y8WJ/IMG_3045.JPG Christchurch Underfloor Insulation | Healthy Homes Compliance Guaranteed - Underfloor insulation - Retrofit R1.5 Blanket This Mammoth polyester insulation is R1.5 and 100mm thick nominal. Compared to the previous image you can tell the insulation is thinner however still exceeds the minimum requirements of the Residential Tenancies Act https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55ee2c20e4b02502c50364aa/1521855048666-91HYQACSE9PCAXEOXZH6/IMG_3070.JPG Christchurch Underfloor Insulation | Healthy Homes Compliance Guaranteed - Underfloor Insulation - Retrofit R1.5 Blanket This small area of Mammoth R1.5 polyester blanket insulation has 8 inch joists so the insulation doesn't appear to be as thick, but it is actually 100mm nominal.
