Not cutting insulation cleanly around access door
Cut insulation cleanly around access doors so the door opens and the finish still looks professional.
Watch out
- Do not hack the wrap open and leave ragged insulation around the panel.
Check
- Mark the access opening before cutting wrap.
- Use a clean straight cut and protect the vapor barrier edge.
- Check that screws/latches/hinges still work.
- Seal exposed insulation edges as directed.
