There are alternative methods
for enclosing timber sub-floors
to improve the house energy rating for lightweight cladding
systems. You can do it simply by
closing the gaps between
timber base boards, or use fibre-cement sheeting instead,
with a small gap between the sub-floor sheeting and the
wall cladding.
Another method is to totally enclose the
sub-floor and insert wall vents at the correct spacings. |
