The benefits of adding exterior wall insulation to your Minneapolis, Minnesota home are many. InSoFast insulation panels provide an easy process of installation, resulting in a wall system that withstands weather and supports practically any finishing material.
InSoFast, LLC, creates panels made of EPS foam that meet all existing and future energy regulations. The built-in studs prevent thermal bridging that occurs with wooden frames. Beginning in 2006, InSoFast insulation panels provide effective, affordable, and conveniently applied EPS insulation panels that you can use regardless of your skill level.
When customers place an order within the Lower 48, we’ll ship without surcharge to the project site directly from our factories in Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Idaho.
The Addition of Exterior Wall Insulation
The addition of InSoFast insulation panels to the exterior of a home enhances the thermal protection for the home in a way that wouldn’t be possible otherwise. By providing the home with stronger thermal efficiency from the exterior of the home, you’ll increase the longevity of the structure and avoid taking up space from the interior.
The InSoFast insulation panels for exterior use come as panels of 2’x4’x2.5” and connect to one another into a wall system of insulation. These closed-cell EPS foam panels create continuous insulation that has no gaps in coverage whatsoever.
By encapsulating the home into these panels, we also provide a Class III vapor barrier, a secondary weather barrier, and a capillary break for wood-framed homes. In fact, you can install these panels directly over the weather resistant barrier or house wrap.
Once complete, the finishing options for InSoFast insulation panels are diverse. Feel free to choose stucco, vinyl siding, thin veneer, or any other material for the outside of your home up to 2” in thickness. You can even choose multiple finishing options for the same home for design purposes without disrupting the system. The studs built into the panels can support them easily. Each polypropylene stud is as strong as a 20-gauge steel stud and supports 250 pounds on its own. The studs won’t fail, nor will they facilitate thermal energy loss.
InSoFast EXe 2.5 exterior insulation panels produce R-10 continuous insulation that outperforms R-15 labelled traditional insulation. The panel design is adjusted for external purposes and has drainage channels on each side instead of electrical raceways.
No Fuss Install
Installing InSoFast EXe 2.5 panels is simple. The panels connect to one another via interlocking notches that promote true and straight alignment. The process doesn’t include the need to tape the panels. All you’ll need are a utility knife and a saw, a screw gun or nail gun, and canned spray foam insulation.
Once you have your InSoFast EXe 2.5 insulation panels ordered and on hand, plan to install them. You won’t need special tools or a crew of assistants, and you don’t need to remediate the home before you begin. Leave the home as it is and simply cover it with InSoFast panels.
