Insulator cannot access joints because duct too tight
If the insulator cannot reach joints because the duct is too tight, flag it before the ceiling closes.
Stop if
- The insulator cannot reach these joints. Do we need to adjust sequence, access, or clearance?
Watch out
- Do not assume insulation can fix a joint nobody can reach.
Check
- Check which joints need insulation/seal/finish.
- Look at clearance around walls, steel, and other trades.
- Ask insulator/foreman what space is needed.
- Document blocked areas.
- Coordinate before more duct is installed tight.
