Bought a new-to-me house this summer. Has an existing pole barn that I'd like to insulate the ceiling.
Givens:
1) 12' tall ceilings. 2) 4/12 pitch roof trusses on 24 centers. 3) OSB roof sheeting and asphalt shingles. 4) Ceiling covered with pole barn steel. 5) Prior to ceiling installation, truss bottom cords were covered with a foil faced bubble wrap. 6) Location is central lower Michigan. 7) Walls are insulated with 1-1/2 foam panels. 8) Heating is with a wood stove. Mostly weekend heating events for projects.
What are my options to insulate, and more importantly, what insulating techniques should be avoided because of long term damage for this construction?
