First, we make the lathing of the walls and ceiling along the perimeter using guide profiles. We attach the profiles to the ceiling and walls from the outside with dowels;
Next, using rack profiles, we make the internal lathing with the help of horizontal crossbars.
After completing the installation work to create the frame, you can begin installing the insulation.
Of course, the vapor barrier film also has certain thermal insulation properties. But this will clearly not be enough, especially if the outside of the house has not been insulated. Therefore, experts recommend installing an additional layer of insulation under the vapor barrier film.
Today, two materials are particularly popular as insulation:
mineral wool. It is used most often. It is fastened fusion data a special stapler;
polystyrene foam. It is slightly inferior in popularity to mineral wool. It is simply installed between the frame elements.
Please note! Whatever material you use for insulation, it must form a monolithic layer. All cracks should be sealed with either special tape, or mounting foam, or silicone sealant.
The insulation procedure itself is not complicated. It can be done in just a couple of hours if the room is large. Therefore, you should not neglect this procedure, as you will appreciate the benefits of insulation on cold winter evenings.
After the insulation comes the turn of the vapor barrier film.
