Exterior access:

Remove the exterior cladding at the insulation access point when feasible

Neatly cut any vapor retarder installed and minimize air barrier and drainage plane disruption

Create an access hole through the sheathing sufficient to access the cavity with fill tube

Interior access:

Set up dust containment enclosure in installation area

Create access holes through the interior wall surface in a straight horizontal line sufficient to access the cavity with fill tube without damaging the wall surface

Access all wall cavities safely and prepare for access closure
