General Sales Bulletin #70-66 SUBJECT: GYPSUM SHEATHING RE: Sales Advantage
Gypsum sheathing Is one of the lowest cost sheathing materials on the market; is incombustible; Is easily installed; and there is little waste In using the material. By Itself It does not have as good Insulation value as the various other materials sold for sheathing. However, In today's building where sheathing products are generally used, due to the emphasis on heat loss through walls, modern air conditioning and other factors, almost all have additional Insulation In the side walls. Once additional insulation is used the differences in the heat loss through the walls due to difference in the insulation value of the sheathing becomes very small.
Forwarded herewith are five copies of an old folder on Fireproof Gypsum Sheathing, 8W 61100.
