An unfinished basement is, quite literally, wasted space. Incorporating basement insulation along with drywall within your Columbus, Ohio home is the first step toward a basement transformation to turn wasted space into a playroom, office, guest area, or another purpose-driven home level. InSoFast insulation panels make this goal achievable in less time, with less money, and with greater success.
Closed-cell EPS foam is the perfect material for InSoFast insulation panels. It produces twice the R-value per square inch as open-cell foam insulation and protects from any moisture intrusion. Our method of injection-molding into a precise design creates panels that fit together tightly, and the inclusion of embedded studs prevents interruption of the insulation coverage.
An easy installation process marks the use of InSoFast insulation panels. Employ a saw of some kind, a utility knife, a caulk gun, Loctite PL Premium 3X Stronger Construction Adhesive, and canned spray foam insulation to complete the install within a short period of time and with little additional help.
Once a system of wall insulation is in place, wiring, drywall, and finishing will come, and the InSoFast panel includes polypropylene studs as strong as 20-gauge steel studs and service raceways for running wiring to make both of these steps simple.
Preparing with a supply of InSoFast insulation panels is as convenient as the installation. Buy them online or at your local Menards on Hilliard Rome Road, E Broad Street, or Morse Road or in the nearby communities of Lewis Center, Lancaster, or Chillicothe.
How to Approach Your Easy Insulation Installation
When installing InSoFast insulation into your basement, you’ll first need to decide between the two products we offer for interior use – UX 2.0 and EXi 2.5.
For base level coverage, choose the UX 2.0 panel. It’s 2’x4’x2” and meets all present and future energy regulations.
The EXi 2.5 insulation panel offers 20% more resistance to thermal energy loss. The panel is 2.5” thicker and the panels fit together tighter due to the studs being farther embedded into the insulation and the tongue-and-groove alignment edges.
Phases of Basement Use That Correspond to Life Stages
Playroom – Consider the benefits of limiting toys, noise, and the mess of children playing to one single room.
Teen Hangout – The teenage years require a balancing act where freedom and safety war with one another. Parental instinct to protect and the necessity of space for growth can come in conflict. Turning your basement into an area where your teen and his or her friends can chill may be the ideal solution.
Hobby Room – Find yourself again when your children move out! Dedicate your basement to personal growth and personal passions. Your lifelong love of books, music, wine, etc. can be on display in a way that permits your genuine enjoyment.
