For all that we know about roofs, which is a great deal, sometimes things can get confusing. I am more than partly to blame for that. I wrote a lot of the code language dealing with both vented and unvented roof assemblies. Yes, the language is confusing. As a practical matter you can insulate on the top of a roof deck, on the bottom of a roof deck–and wait for it –on both the top and bottom of a roof deck. Clear? How you do it is the trick. The physics may be logical, but the code language may not be. Having said that, the code does allow all three approaches. Trust me...it does.

When it comes to insulation, says This Old House general contractor Tom Silva, money truly can buy happiness. "It's the wisest way to invest that I know of," he says. "A well-insulated house will make you more comfortable in every season. And it's quieter, too."
