Do I staple the flanges on faced fiber glass insulation to the face of the stud or to the inside of the stud?
When stapling is necessary in cathedral ceiling projects, always staple insulation to the face of the rafter to maintain the necessary 1″ ventilation space. If Raft-R-Mate baffles have been installed up the entire length of the cavity, then either way is acceptable. In other projects, such as walls, either way is also appropriate.
