Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability of installing loose-fill insulation
in assemblies where the material is subject to:
This is to limit the probability of compromised
thermal resistance, which could lead to excessively low temperatures of interior
surfaces or within assemblies.
This is to limit the probability of condensation, which could lead
to deterioration, which could lead to compromised structural integrity of
