In construction, furring (furring strips) are thin strips of wood or other material to level or raise surfaces of another material to prevent dampness, to make space for insulation, or to level and resurface ceilings or walls. Furring refers to the process of installing the strips and to the strips themselves. Firring is a U.K. term for wood strips which are usually 50 mm wide, tapered and fixed above wood roof joists to provide drainage falls below roof boarding.
Nails Vs. I'm planning to install two layers of 5/8 drywall + Hat Channel + Isolation clips on the ceiling of my home theater. I have an 18 paralam that bisects my room, that hangs down 2 further than the rest of the ceiling, so I am adding 2x4 furring strips so that my first layer of drywall is ~5/8 below the beam.ere's a photo of my current progress and the offending beam. My question, I've been using 2-1/2 deck screws to attach the furring strips, but it's slow going. I'd much rather use 2-1/2 framing nails as the nail gun will get the job done quicker.
