Product details:

If your home has a pull-down attic stair or uninsulated attic entry door, you are vulnerable to heat loss during colder months. Typical attic entry doors are not adequately insulated and since they don't seal tightly, you can experience a "chimney effect" with warm, conditioned air escaping out of your living space or cool attic air entering your home.

Draft Cap eliminates drafts and provides R-11 protection, giving you a "1-2 punch" to dramatically lower heating costs. With its light weight, Draft Cap can be easily slid out of the way for access to your attic without the need for tools; and it slides easily back into place when you're done. Installation of this durable polystyrene foam product takes less than 5 minutes and can save you on average $19/month in heating and cooling costs.

Draft Cap Details

  • Fits a standard 25.5" x 54" R.O. opening.
  • Outside dimensions approximately 31" x 59.5" x 10.5"
  • Underside clearance is 7-7/8"
  • Weight is approximately 7 lbs.
  • May be used in 2x6, 2x8, 2x10, and 2x12 attic ceiling joist construction.
  • Has a wall thickness of 2-3/4"
  • Constructed of dust-free expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam Made in the USA under Patent Number 6,966,153
  • To easily check if Draft Cap will fit, simply pull the attic hatch down so that it is roughly at a 45 degree angle. Then step around the back side of the door and measure just the plywood door or panel (not the molding.) If this measurement is in the vicinity of 24" x 52", then you have a standard-size pull-down stair unit and Draft Cap will fit perfectly.

BUYER BEWARE

Nowhere in the description do they elude to the fact that this comes aa a 2 piece product. In fact the dimensions list it as being one piece. I could have bought a 4 x 8 piece of foamboard for $20 and made my own. Don't waste your money. I had one made by Owens Corning that was truly a 1 piece and it was great. This is simply an overpriced piece of garbage. It is obviously made out of a solid piece of styrofoam and then cut so that they can save on shipping. I have seen pictures of these shipped to Ecofoil and they are 1 piece. This company cuts them in two to save money shipping it to you. I also know of people who have bought these from distributors and they were one piece. Don't waste your money on this over-priced product. Shame on Ecofoil for wrecking a perfectly good stair insulator so they can save a few bucks shipping. Plus the adhesive they send with it is not even approved for foamboard it is bathroom adhesive. What a waste and I will never again buy anything from this company. BUYER BEWARE!

Works well

A bit pricey but works well. You will need more tape then what comes with the ecofoil. Spread calking thick and over both joint surfaces. Let it ooze out and use a brush to spread along seam, inside and on top. Have a helper apply pressure holding the two pieces together while you tape the seam together top and underside. Use overlapping duct tape. Set aside for 12 hours or longer to give the calking time to set up.

Great product

Easy to assemble and fits as described. Lightweight but secure over opening. Allows complete access into and out of attic. Exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommend!
