After a shipping container serves its original purpose, its life doesn’t have to end. Since shipping containers were made to ship products rather than house people, they’re not insulated. The lack of insulation causes problems with interior temperature regulation, condensation, and noise. Solving these problems becomes simple when you buy InSoFast shipping container insulation panels. As you pour out your creative efforts on your project in Arcata, CA, count on our products to be highly effective for your time, your budget, and your structure.
Continuous Insulation Benefits
Quality insulation can resolve many issues related to the transition of a shipping container. InSoFast insulation panels provide strong, continuous insulation coverage to achieve thermal stability and moisture channels to wick away moisture. We meet and exceed present and future energy codes, helping you keep utility costs low and your new shipping container home comfortable.
Introducing InSoFast CX Shipping Container Panels
InSoFast CX 44 shipping container insulation panels offer an R-value of 11 through a system of non-porous continuous insulation. The panels are slim but pack a punch of strong thermal protection when used to build a wall system of insulation. The tongue-and-groove edges fit together tightly, and you’ll need few tools or helpers to finish your project.
InSoFast InSerts and Insulation Panels
The combination of two other InSoFast insulation products is another way to approach insulating shipping containers. The InSerts create a smooth canvas when placed within the spaces created by the corrugation. Either InSoFast UX 2.0 or EXi 2.5 will follow to provide an airtight shield of protective insulation for your shipping container walls, ends, and ceilings.
Key into All the Additional Advantages InSoFast Insulation Offers
Condensation and moisture can be a real hazard to both respiratory health and structural integrity. The mold and mildew that feeds on moisture can cause respiratory disease and distress, and the moisture on steel will lead to corrosion and rust. The moisture occurs when steel that has cooled due to climate controls or the cooling of night begins to heat rapidly when the sun rises. Moisture control channels, like those built into InSoFast insulation panels will wick away this moisture from the walls, and a protective layer of insulation can prevent condensation as well.
Running electricity for your shipping container home will be yet another item on your checklist. The interior panels manufactured by InSoFast come with built-in electrical raceways. You’ll be able to run wires up or down, side to side, and you won’t have to stress about bypassing the bulky wooden frame because you won’t need one!
A wooden frame doesn’t have to be part of your shipping container design when you choose InSoFast insulation products. Each panel includes embedded studs every 16” o.c. These studs are able to hold up to 250 pounds apiece, so they function as a frame for mounting drywall and other hardware such as cabinetry or wall-mounted televisions.
In-So-Fast is more than just an eye-catching name. It’s a description of the primary characteristic of the panels. The panels attach together intuitively, and the tools required are few. Grab a caulking gun, construction adhesive, a saw, a utility knife, and a can of spray foam insulation, and you’re ready to install.
Whether you plan to add storage to your property, move in your mother-in-law, or use the space for another purpose in Arcata, CA, a shipping container transformation can be a challenge, but InSoFast products can make it simpler.
