Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
The 2.6 in. thickness is a good mid-range layer for stacked insulation assemblies, bridging between common 2 in. and 3 in. boards to hit exact R-value targets. Stagger joints between layers to limit thermal bridging and air movement. Pair with a GAF-approved cover board where UL Class A over combustible decks is required.
Handle and cut panels with gloves and eye protection, and follow the manufacturer's installation instructions and local building code for attachment and fire-assembly requirements.
