Can I use this netting with spray foam insulation?

While the netting is designed for use with a variety of insulation types, consult with a spray foam professional to ensure compatibility and proper application methods.

How do I determine the amount of netting I need?

Measure the area to be covered and calculate the total square footage. Remember the netting is 1m wide and 100m long, covering 100 sq. m per roll. Account for any overlaps and waste when calculating the required amount.

What tools do I need to install the netting?

You will need a staple gun or tacks, a measuring tape, scissors or a utility knife, and safety glasses.

Troubleshooting

Netting is sagging after installation.

Ensure the netting is stretched taut and securely fastened. Check for any loose staples or tacks and re-secure them. Consider using a double layer if the insulation is heavy or the rafter spacing is wide.

Netting is difficult to cut.

Use sharp scissors or a utility knife to cut the netting. Ensure a clean cut to avoid fraying. Consider using a cutting mat to protect the surface.

The netting is torn or damaged.

Replace the damaged section of netting. Ensure the new section overlaps the existing netting by a few centimeters and is securely fastened.

Pests are getting through the netting.

Check for any gaps or tears in the netting. Ensure it is securely fastened to all supporting structures. Consider adding additional pest deterrents, such as sealant around edges, if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Preparation: Measure the space between rafters or joists. Cut the netting to the required lengths, allowing for some overlap.
  2. Installation: Stretch the netting across the rafters or joists, ensuring it is taut. Use a staple gun or tacks to secure the netting, spacing the fasteners approximately 10-15cm apart along the edges.
  3. Layering: For wider rafter spans or heavier insulation, consider using a double layer of netting.
  4. Overlap: Overlap the edges of the netting by a few centimeters to provide continuous support.

Compatibility:

The netting is compatible with various types of insulation materials, including fiberglass, mineral wool, and blown-in insulation. It is suitable for use in both new construction and refurbishment projects.

Care:

The netting requires minimal maintenance. Avoid placing heavy objects directly on the netting. Inspect periodically for any signs of damage, especially in areas exposed to weather or pests.
