The Revolutionary Features of InSoFast Insulation Panels
The speed of InSoFast insulation panels’ installation is by design. Other features included in the panels’ design include moisture control channels, service channels for electric wiring, and built-in, non-conductive studs.
The EPS foam that makes up the panels is closed-cell and injection-molded into the engineered design. Novice homeowners and skilled builders will have no trouble installing these insulation systems. Application is straightforward due to the innovative tongue-and-groove notched edges; you’d have to make an effort to make a mistake!
When fitted together into a system of continuous insulation, the 2’x4’ panels outperform traditional batt insulation, and the nature of the panels makes them applicable to floors, ceilings, and walls – as long as the surface is flat.
The Best Choice of InSoFast Insulation Panel
The optimum InSoFast insulation panel for your basement remodel depends on your home’s location and the surrounding environment.
InSoFast UX 2.0 Insulation Panel
The UX 2.0 panel is 2” thick, and the faces of the embedded studs are exposed on one side. This panel produces an R-value of 8.5, and the system outperforms fiberglass systems with an R-13 label.
InSoFast EXi 2.5 Insulation Panel
The other interior insulation choice is 2 ½” deep, with an R-value of 10. The R-value outperforms traditional fiberglass insulation with R-values of 15. The 20% greater insulation strength comes from the skintight fit and the deeper embedded studs.
The Surprise Benefits of InSoFast Insulation Panels
A surprise advantage that InSoFast insulation panels offer is the service channels for installing electricity. The horizontal and vertical orientation of the channels makes it possible to install the circuitry in various compositions to suit your needs.
The moisture control channels built into the panels will keep your home dry and free from mold and mildew by directing vapor or moisture downward and out of the wall’s interior.
The built-in non-ferrous studs protect the continuity of the insulation coverage, but they also provide a strong and straightforward method of installing drywall and mounted hardware. Each stud is as strong as a 20-gauge stud and is able to support up to 250 pounds each – all without interrupting the insulation coverage as a wooden frame does.
