ABSTRACT:
A method of insulating the roof of a building by a strip of vinyl stretching a sheet of vinyl material between two structural beams of a building. A plurality of such sheets of vinyl backed fiberglass insulation are fastened side-by-side to each other to cover the area desired. Purlin clips are utilized to attach to purlin structural members extending across from one of the structural beams to the other and these are placed in a series of straight lines at predetermined intervals. These purlin clips have an aperture therein so that a band of metal can be threaded through each successive ones of the clips for the purpose of supporting the bottom side of the sheets of vinyl at even intervals along the length thereof. The adjacent edges of the vinyl sheets are positioned so that they will hang down and so that it can be separated by hand to permit loose insulation, such as chopped up fiberglass insulation to be blown between the vinyl sheets. After the entire area formed by the sheets of vinyl is filled, then the adjacent edges of the sheets of vinyl material are stapled together while in the such lower position thereof and then they are stuffed back up through the seam to a position above the vinyl sheets.
