Separating insulation in half??

506 Views 5 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  Windows on Wash
I’m insulating my 16x20 workshop. I’m currently doing the roof and want to leave the ceiling open to store things above. I have 2x6 rafters. I left a 1” air space for air to pass from my soffit to the ridge and I used 1.5” foam board that I got a really good deal on. It leaves me with 3” of space. I was wondering if fibreglass insulation can be separated in half. Ex: use 6” insulation and separate it in half to get 3”... I’ve searched everywhere online and can’t find an answer. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I think I’ll just go with the 3 1/2” insulation, but was also curious if pulling apart 6” insulation to make 2 pcs of 3” is ok. I don’t see any info anywhere on doing that.
