If you’ve decided to invest in your home in Bolingbrook, Illinois, by “finishing” the basement, you’ll need insulation. The job is one you can do on your own, affordably and effectively, when you choose InSoFast insulation panels.
Thermal Protection for Your Basement Area
Climate control is a substantial part of your upkeep costs. Winters in this area bring cold, and much of it seeps in through the below-ground basement walls. Converting this room into a useful area will require that you install thermal protection, and you won’t find an easier or more affordable method than installing continuous wall systems of InSoFast insulation.
You don’t have to wait for shipping either. Get started fast by picking a supply up at your local Menards. You’ll find a location in Bolingbrook as well as in nearby Naperville, Plainfield, and Homer Glen.
Insulating Your Basement – Tips and Tricks
The lines of InSoFast insulation products suitable for use indoors consist of the UX 2.0 and EXi 2.5 panels. Each line includes 24”x48” panels, but the UX 2.0 panel is 2” deep, as opposed to the ½” thicker EXi 2.5 panel. The UX 2.0 panel produces R-8.5 that outperforms R-13 labeled insulation, and the EXi 2.5 panel creates R-10.5 insulation that outperforms fiberglass insulation with an R-15 label.
One of the remarkable features of InSoFast insulation panels is the non-ferrous studs we embed within the EPS foam every 16” on center. These studs serve to provide a place for adhesion to the wall as well as a source of strength for hanging drywall and mounted hardware.
Eliminate Damp Basement Air
Basements are generally damp. They’re underground and have concrete walls that do little to prevent seepage. InSoFast insulation panels are non-porous; they won’t allow moisture or vapor to permeate through the system of insulation. Further, they feature moisture control channels designed to direct condensation and vapor away from the wall’s interior. In addition to not absorbing water, the panel is thermally and chemically stable. You won’t have to worry about moisture or mold development.
Save Time and Get the Job Done
With our products, your basement can be insulated, drywalled, and ready for design fast. Even in its designation – In-So-Fast – the panels indicate the speed by which they’re installed. In fact, the panels are so readily applied, they’re enthusiastically sought after by professionals and DIYers alike.
The design of InSoFast insulated panels encourages single-person installation. The design of the panel is stackable and weighs little. You’ll also need just a few implements for installation including a saw of some kind, a utility knife, a caulk gun, and construction adhesive. You’ll find numerous resources on our website to get the gist of the application procedure.
Durability for Your Insulation and Your Home
The InSoFast insulation panels are durable – physically and chemically inert. They don’t release toxic chemicals or settle over time. Further, they provide a Class III vapor barrier and resist growth of mold and mildew for a healthy, long-lived home.
