Method, system and unit for insulating buildings
A roof insulation unit 1 having a first and second insulation body 11,12 attached to respective first and second supporting members 2,3 configured for adjustable positioning with respect to each other such that the insulating bodies abut in use to define a region of continuous insulating material between supporting members. The supporting members may be integrally formed from a plastic sheet having a flexible region 5,6 define a living hinge between first and second supporting member portions, the unit preferably folding to a triangular wedge to fit into the eaves. The angle between supporting members in use is preferably 45 degrees or less to fit the angle of the roof. The insulation bodies may have a decreasing profile towards the hinge, preferable a stepped profile (fig. 1). There may be a polypropylene or PVC ventilator tray 13 attached to a support member surface 10. There is a separate independent claim for a method of insulating a cavity between a ceiling and a pitched roof (fig. 6) using unit 1.
