DESCRIPTION

2009 IECC Section 402.2.3 and 2009 IRC Section N1102.2.3 reads: "Access hatches and doors. Access doors from conditioned spaces to unconditioned spaces (e.g., attics and crawl spaces) shall be weatherstripped and insulated to a level equivalent to the insulation on the surrounding surfaces." Energy Star Version 3 requirements conform with the 2009 IECC and 2009 IRC. Our attic access solutions that Meet the New Building/Energy Codes:1. E-Z Hatch R-42 Attic Access Door. This is an energy-efficient attic access unit (scuttle door). It is R-42, triple-gasketed, pre-finished, and provides a 22x30” access opening. It is an energy efficient alternative to energy wasting attic pull down ladders, and exceeds all Code requirements. We also offer a Deluxe version with a 4-point locking latch and handles. The cost of this attic access door is less than the cost of a pull down ladder and an insulated cover. A step ladder provides attic access. 2. Battic Door R-50 Attic Stair Cover. When pull down ladders are preferred we offer an energy-efficient pull down ladder cover. The kit includes our box (stair cover) and gasket, along with a reflective shield. The installer provides the desired amount of fiberglass insulation (R-50+) into the reflective shield, and the box is placed into the reflective shield covering the insulation. The shield holds the insulation to the box. The stair cover fits between trusses. If there are no clearance issues, you can also add insulation under the shield to the sides of the box. We produce 22x54, 25x54 and 30x54 sizes.
