The nature of basements is cold and damp, largely due to the sub-ground location. This quality creates the need for powerful insulation, and game-changing InSoFast insulation is the best foam insulation for basement walls. It’s DIY-friendly and contractor-approved without costing a small fortune.
The choice for your basement finishing job’s insulation will likely be between fiberglass insulation or foam. The traditional choice is fiberglass, but failing to consider the benefits of newer technology would be a mistake.
Fiberglass insulation is inexpensive, but it’s not without its downsides. For installation, you’ll need to build a wooden frame to hold the insulation and support drywall. Unfortunately, each place that includes a board for framing indicates a break in insulation coverage. In addition, fiberglass will settle and lose effectiveness over time, not to mention the susceptibility of the material to mold, mildew, and rot.
Foam insulation is available in spray or board form. Spray foam insulation is prohibitively expensive for many homeowners, incredibly messy, and requires professional installation. Foam board insulation comes in open or closed cell insulation, and the closed-cell option provides twice the insulating power as open-cell technology. InSoFast insulation panels offer this strong insulation, along with a 2×4 foot, easy to move, stack, and install panel design.
InSoFast insulation comes in 2’x4’ panels. This size is ideal for those working independently since they’re lightweight, not bulky, and stackable. Other features that make our products so appealing to the DIYer include the tongue-and-groove notches that make alignment easy and foolproof as well as the easy installation that requires only a utility knife, saw, caulking gun, Loctite PL Premium 3X Stronger Construction Adhesive, and a can of spray foam insulation.
A once-and-done process, installing InSoFast insulation provides long-term peace of mind. The panels don’t degrade, deteriorate, or release chemicals, so the insulation strength withstands the tests of time. The moisture control channels and non-porous nature of the panels also offer reassurance against vapor and mold.
Flooding can be an issue for basements. Whether your home has a pipe burst or your locale receives an unusually high amount of precipitation, at some point, your basement room will probably flood. If that does happen, imagine how much easier it will be to replace one or two insulation panels instead of having to completely tear out and rebuild a framing and fiberglass system of insulation.
InSoFast, LLC, started producing insulation products in 2006, originally marketing them to the commercial construction industry. However, the insulation systems’ astounding features soon sparked interest among contractors and DIY-minded homeowners.
Our panels meet and extend past all energy regulations, make various steps of construction easier, and outperform the competition. These panels, made of EPS foam, are made and shipped without surcharge to sites within the Lower 48 from our facilities in South Dakota, Idaho, Massachusetts, or Minnesota.
InSoFast insulation for your basement’s interior walls comes in two product lines: UX 2.0 and EXi 2.5. The base level, UX 2.0 is 2” thick and has an R-8.5 level of energy efficiency, and the next level up, EXi 2.5, is 20% stronger, 2.5” thicker, and has deeply recessed built-in studs that enable the panels to retain strength despite wall irregularities like you’d find with concrete walls.
Our products include raceways for wiring, a rot-resistant frame, and a convenient installation – all by design.
