Long-term thermal resistance values were determined in accordance with CAN/ULC-S770. All test samples were third-party selected and tested by an accredited material testing laboratory. The R-value for .5 in. perlite (1.39) was provided by ASHRAE Handbook, Fundamentals. The R-value of .55 for 7/16 OSB was provided by APA-The Engineered Wood Association, which cited ASHRAE Handbook, Fundamentals. The R-value for .25 in. glass-mat gypsum board (.28 R-value) was provided by the glass-mat gypsum board manufacturer.
CAN/ULC-S770 does not apply to impermeably-faced (e.g., foil-faced) foam plastic insulation. A test method for determining LTTR values for impermeably faced foam plastic insulation is currently under development. Until such a test is available, Atlas has chosen to establish an interim LTTR value for Supreme based on LTTR test experience with permeably-faced products. Atlas recommends multi-layering when desired insulation thicknesses are greater than 2.7".
