Abstract
The facing of a faced building insulation assembly includes a central field portion that is fungi growth resistant. The facing may include a fungi growth-inhibiting agent, be perforated to provide a selected water vapor permeance, and/or may include a heat activated bonding agent. The facing may have lateral tabs that are transparent, sufficiently open to enable wallboard to be directly bonded to framing members overlaid by the tabs, and/or of greater integrity than the field portion of the facing. The field portion of the facing may include a coating to stiffen the facing, inhibit fungi growth, and/or decrease flame spread and smoke formation.
