Tenting a ceiling

[DaveOC]

I have just built a summer house in my garden, the roof is a 4 sided pyramid shape and I've insulated the inside of the roof with celotex. I've decided to tent the ceiling and wanted to kow the easiest way of doing this and what material is best bearing in mind I need to cover the celotex. Any help appreciated.

Have you indeed. Mind telling the rest of us what tenting a ceiling means?

It's hanging swathes of 'drooping' fabric from a ceiling or roof.

Tons of advice on the web ... try googling "tenting a ceiling"

Bad move IMO; it will turn into one of the most unhygienic dust & bug catchers know to man within just a few months!

Major fire risk. Make sure you use material that's fire retardent. The supplier should be able to advise and show you the relevant certificate.

Easy way to fix is a central hook from which to hold middle of fabric and then velcro along top of wall to fix bottom of fabric. Depending on size can be made as one piece and hung or 4 pieces each with velcro along the three sides.
