Wall insulation on the exterior of your Chicago, Illinois, home can work wonders to protect the people within and the home itself from weathering, thermal fluctuations, and more. InSoFast insulation panels allow you to install this advantageous upgrade hassle-free and affordably.
The exterior insulation panels produced by InSoFast, LLC, are easy for a one-person crew. The panels don’t weigh much, stack like blocks, and apply easily. Installing these panels along the exterior of your home makes sense for enhanced resistance to weather, support for the structure of the home, and cost-effectiveness compared to other home upgrades.
Exterior InSoFast Continuous Insulation
The panels of insulation made by InSoFast, LLC, for use outdoors offer an R-10 level of resistance to thermal loss, and the systems serve as a weather screen assembly. Made just for use outdoors, this product resists the weathering effects of moisture and increases the home’s insulation.
The exterior insulation panel is the EXe 2.5 panel. The EXi 2.5 panel is used for interior applications, and the exterior panel retains much of the same features. However, the exterior panel replaces the electrical raceways with drainage channels on both sides of the panel. The panel allows multi-directional air flow but blocks water. This simple insulation system promotes protection from thermal loss, mildew growth, and moisture accumulation.
InSoFast exterior application is easy in and of itself, but you also save time by avoiding prep work. The InSoFast insulation panels will be installed straight onto the existing house wrap or weather resistant barrier. You can leave trim, lead paint, etc., and simply cover the house as it is.
Equally as easy is installing exterior finishing materials atop the InSoFast exterior insulation system. The non-ferrous studs embedded within the panels facilitate the connection to the home and can support up to 250 pounds each. The studs are as strong as 20-gauge steel studs. These embedded studs are non-conductive, preventing thermal bridges and loss of energy.
You can choose whatever finishing materials you choose, up to 2” thick, without concern about the finish durability.
The notched alignment edges promote the straight and true alignment of the insulation system, and you won’t need to tape the panels during installation. InSoFast insulation panels go in with only a saw, utility knife, screw or nail gun, and canned spray foam insulation.
The exterior system of insulation that you create with InSoFast EXe 2.5 panels can be taken up a notch by utilizing the InSoFast PLUS insulation system. Simply install any brand rigid foam board on top of your InSoFast insulation system. The R-value of each system will add to the other for a cumulative R-value that can meet any thermal strength your home needs.
