Appendix X3 of ASTM E84-99 states that facings which melt, drip or pull awayfrom the lame and are assigned a low FSI based on this method, may exhibit lame-over conditions during room ire tests with increasing area of exposure. In our opinion this product shouldnot be used in an exposed application within a living unit. Knauf Insulation recommends using unfaced or FSK-25 foil-faced products or covering with an approved inish material.* Some R Values may be subject to custom product minimum order requirements.
