High-quality insulation doesn’t have to be professionally installed or cost a fortune. When you buy InSoFast insulation wall panels for your home in Portland, OR, you can count on continuous insulation and protection from moisture without a large price tag. Our products are also DIY-friendly and made right here in America.
About InSoFast Insulation Products
InSoFast insulation panels operate as a system of engineered continuous insulation (CI). Each panel is 2’x4’ and interlocks via notched edges for alignment. The panels also include a corrosion-resistant frame, drainage control channels, electrical raceways, and a lightweight and stackable design. Air and vapor won’t pass through the closed-cell, injection-molded EPS foam, and the system of insulation will be airtight.
The InSoFast UX 2.0 insulation panel features a 2” thickness and exposed faces of the embedded studs along the flat surface. The 8.5 R-value outperforms traditional batt walls with an R-value of 13, meeting all present and future energy codes.
A level above the UX 2.0 panel is the EXi 2.5 panel. The insulation is 20% stronger due to the .5” thicker panel and the tighter fit made possible by the recessed, embedded studs. The insulation system will be true and straight with an R-value of 10 that outperforms competitors with an R-value of 15.
Go with InSoFast Interior Panels Instead of Fiberglass Insulation
Moisture protection is critical for homes. Without it, mold and mildew will abound, making the inhabitants sick. Fiberglass soaks up water, creating a breeding ground for the mold and mildew.
The effects of moisture extend to destruction of the frame as well. Over time, water will cause the wood to rot, and fiberglass can lose up to 80% of its insulating power.
InSoFast insulation panels don’t have the same issues as fiberglass products. The panels don’t settle or degrade; they’re chemically and physically stable. While they don’t allow for air or vapor to pass, they also feature drainage channels to wick moisture away from the wall.
The fact that fiberglass insulation has to have a wood frame for installation makes the traditional system create thermal bridges where the studs lie. Wood studs can take up ¼ of the wall and drastically reduce the power of the insulation system.
Thermal bridging doesn’t interrupt the continuous insulation system created by InSoFast insulation panels. Each stud is embedded well within the insulation panel and doesn’t conduct thermal energy as a wood frame does. The system connects through interlocked tongue-and-groove notches for an airtight system of continuous insulation.
Quick and Simple Application of Insulation
Installing fiberglass insulation doesn’t work for DIYers. The process demands too much time and skill, and there are far too many opportunities to mess up the installation.
InSoFast insulation panels, on the other hand, promote DIY simplicity. Regardless of the project, our panels come together in a running band pattern, one panel at a time. You’ll need a caulking gun, utility knife, saw, and Loctite PL Premium 3X Stronger Construction adhesive to achieve a strong system of insulation. The features of the panels prevent mistakes as well.
