Ventilation

MuddyMac | Posted in General Questions on

Hi, can someone help me with what to do on this modern pre built studio without any current venting. And is it really needed?  It has a lp tech radiant barrier underneath roof decking. 2×6 rafters. 4 windows. I plan to insulate with batts and leave an air gap between radiant barrier and batts. Then cover with drywall. Floor is insulated with 2in spray foam. It will have a window unit and space heater in winter
And walls will have r15. It will be an office space without running water. I would rather not cut into soffit that is finished out. I don’t want to use closed cell spray foam either. Any advice? Location is Asheville NC.
