What material can I put between insulation and ceiling panel?
Hello,
In a room where I have opened up to the ridge, I plan to install raw boards with a gap between each board as ceiling panels. However, I would like to cover my fiberglass insulation with something before I put up the panel because I want to ensure that no fibers fall from the insulation. The vapor barrier is set 70mm into the insulation layer, otherwise, it would have been the answer to my wish.
Is there some kind of fiber cloth? Or is there light windproof paper, that should work in that case?
Best regards,
Mats

There is white wind barrier paper. But a neater option might be some white paper (stretch paper, milk carton paper) or rag paper, which avoids the markings on the wind barrier paper.S Skånepåg said:Hello,
In a room where I have an open ceiling up to the roof ridge, I'm planning to install raw boards with a gap between each board as ceiling paneling. But I would like to cover my glass wool insulation with something before installing the paneling since I want to ensure no fibers fall down from the insulation. The vapor barrier is 70mm inside the insulation layer; otherwise, that would have been the solution to my desire.
Is there some kind of fiber fabric? Or is there light wind barrier paper, that should work in that case?

White ground cloth maybe these exist in wide widths and are easier to work with than paper which tears so easily..S Skånepåg said:Hello,
