- The invention relates to the field of insulation systems.
- In home construction, it is commonplace to utilize batts of fiberglass or the like for insulation. When insulating basement walls, batt insulation is normally run up the wall to the undersurface of the subfloor, between the joists, and then sheathed with vapor barrier film, so that warm, moist interior air does not infiltrate the batt during winter months and condense, which could lead to mold. Securing the barrier film in a relatively hermetic manner is complicated by the generally sawtooth-shaped interface between the barrier film, the undersurface of the subfloor and the floor joists and quite often, neatness and seal integrity gives way to expediency, with the film merely being cut roughly to shape, stapled in place and sealed with an abundance of tape.
- Apparatus for securing vapor barrier film to subfloor material and to floor joists forms one aspect of the invention. The apparatus comprises: a first portion having an adhesive receiving surface adapted to adhesively sealingly receive said film; and a second adhesive portion secured to said first portion and adapted for adhesion to said subfloor material and to said floor joists.
- According to another aspect of the invention, the second adhesive portion can be a strip portion and be adapted for sealing adhesion to said subfloor material and to said floor by way of an adhesive gripping surface, and the first portion can be a strip.
- According to another aspect of the invention, the receiving surface and the gripping surface can each be in contact with a respective sheet of release liner which is removed prior to use.
- According to another aspect of the invention, the cross-section of the apparatus can be L-shaped.
- According to another aspect of the invention, the adhesive receiving surface can be on the first strip portion inside of the contained angle, and the adhesive gripping surface can be on the second strip portion outside of the contained angle.
- According to another aspect of the invention, the first strip portion can include a plastic substrate and an adhesive coating defining the adhesive receiving surface; and the second strip portion can include a plastic substrate and an adhesive coating defining the adhesive gripping surface.
- A method for securing vapor barrier film to subfloor material and to floor joists forms another aspect of the invention.
- In the method: the apparatus is provided; the second strip portion is adhesively secured to the subfloor material and the floor joints; and the vapor barrier film is secured to said first strip portion.
- The invention permits vapor barrier film to be relatively conveniently and neatly secured to the undersurface of the subfloor and the floor joists.
- Other advantages, features and characteristics of the present invention, as well as methods of operation and functions of the related elements of the structure, and the combination of parts and economies of manufacture, will become more apparent upon consideration of the following detailed description and the appended claims with reference to the accompanying drawings, the latter being briefly described hereinafter.
-

FIG. 6 is a photograph similar toFIG. 5 , showing apparatus according to the exemplary embodiment of the invention with the second strip portion thereof secured to the undersurface of said subfloor and to said floor joists, at the sawtooth-shaped interface defined by the surface of the batt insulation, the undersurface of the subfloor and the floor joists; and -
FIG. 7 is a photograph similar toFIG. 6 , with the release film removed from the first strip portion of the apparatus and vapor barrier film adhesively secured to the first strip portion of the apparatus; -
FIG. 8 is a perspective view of apparatus constructed accorded to the exemplary embodiment of the invention; and -
FIG. 9 is a view of the apparatus ofFIG. 8 from another angle, with the release film on the second strip portion partially removed. - Apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention is shown in
FIGS. 8 and 9 and designated withgeneral reference numeral 20. - The
apparatus 20 will be seen to be L-shaped in cross-section (i.e. L-shaped when viewed along the longitudinal axis) and is comprised of a firstplanar strip portion 22 orientated substantially normally to a secondplanar strip portion 24. - Each of the
first strip portion 22 and thesecond strip portion 24 includes aplastic substrate plastic substrates adhesive coating adhesive coating 30 on thefirst strip portion 22 is inside of the contained angle θ and defines anadhesive receiving surface 34 which is adapted to adhesively, sealingly receive vapor barrier film. Theadhesive coating 32 on thesecond strip portion 24 is outside of the contained angle θ and defines anadhesive gripping surface 36 adapted for adhesion to subfloor material and floor joists. - On each of the
receiving surface 34 and thegripping surface 36 is a sheet ofrelease liner - The
apparatus 20 is used in insulation applications. -
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a typical basement, showing an interior wall framed withstuds 42 supporting an array offloor joists 44, asubfloor 46 supported on thejoists 44 andbatt 48 insulation extending up the basement wall to thesubfloor 46.FIG. 5 is a photograph, showing this structure and interface in more detail. - In use in a basement as shown in
FIG. 1 , therelease liner 40 is first removed from thesecond strip portion 24, which is secured to thesubfloor material 46 and thefloor joints 44 at the generally sawtooth-shaped (the saw having square teeth) interface defined by the surface of thebatt insulation 48, the undersurface of thesubfloor 46 and thefloor joists 44, as shown inFIG. 2 . Theplastic substrates second strip portion 24 to follow the interface, andrelease cuts 50 are formed in thefirst strip portion 22, by scissors or the like, at the inside and outside corners, to enable thefirst strip portion 22 to similarly follow the interface. At the same time, theplastic substrates FIG. 6 is a photograph showing theapparatus 20 so secured to the interface in greater detail. - Thereafter, the
release liner 38 is removed from thefirst strip portion 22, and thevapor barrier film 52, which has previously been provided with relief cuts in the vicinity of thefloor joists 44, is sealingly secured to thefirst strip portion 22 via theadhesive receiving surface 34. - To ensure a hermetic seal is created to seal the
batt insulation 48 against air infiltration from the basement interior, as shown inFIG. 7 ,bridges 100 of two-sided tape or the like can be applied at the exterior corners of the first strip portions, prior to application of the barrier film. - The rigidity of the connection between the substrates of the first and second strip portions is such that the first strip portion provides a sturdy base upon which the barrier film is secured. This facilitates the securement process.
- Whereas but a single exemplary embodiment of the apparatus is shown and described, various changes can be made.
- For example, whereas the substrates of the first strip and the second strip described are formed integrally, in an extrusion process to create an L-shaped cross-section, the substrates could readily be formed integrally out of a single piece of planar material, and folded into shape under pressure or heat.
- Further, whereas the adhesive coatings are indicated to be extruded, same could be poured on, rolled-on, sprayed-on or applied in the form of a two-sided tape.
- As well, whereas the adhesive receiving surface on the first strip portion is inside of the contained angle, it could be formed on the outside of the contained angle, in which event the position of the apparatus could be reversed during installation.
- Moreover, whereas the first and second portions are each indicated to be planar strips, this is not necessary, and other shapes could be provided therefore with similar utility, provided that a substantially hermetic seal can still be maintained.
- Further, whereas but a single embodiment of the method is described, variations thereon can be made. For example, whereas in the exemplary embodiment, relief cuts are made in an elongate strip, to permit same to follow the interface, smaller, discrete lengths of the apparatus could be provided and arranged to follow the interface.
- As well, whereas bridge portions are described at the exterior corners, to provide a hermetic seal, it will be evident that even absent such bridge portions, a relatively hermetic seal would be obtained if care was taken in installation according to the exemplary method.
- Further, in the context of the method which utilized discrete lengths of the apparatus, mitered corners or the like could be provided so as to ensure that the film material had a surface to seal against as it traversed the joists.
- A further alternative would be to utilize an elongate strip provided with relief cuts as described and shown, for example, in
FIG. 6 , but apply, after the film has been secured to the strip, a sealing tape along the strip/film interface, to ensure an appropriate hermetic seal. - A yet further alternative would be to utilize a deformable strip, so as to enable the first portion to stretch around the exterior corners.
- Accordingly, it should be understood that the invention is limited only by the claims appended hereto, purposively construed.
