Abstract: The invention relates to thermal insulation and a method for installing insulation wherein the insulation and the installation method include a double-sided adhesive strip that secures at least one facing sheet, insulation liner, board or the like to a structural support member as found in walls, floors or ceilings. The adhesive can be a double-sided strip of adhesive that is integral to the insulation facing. In one preferred embodiment for installing insulation, the adhesive strip is a distinct component from the insulation that is then secured to both a structural support member and the insulation facing.
