When it comes to thermal insulation, you’re trying to trap the heat in. Nonetheless, many of the performance factors that affect insulation choice in these conditions still apply once the purpose is to keep the heat out. Continuous insulation products are flexible, as well as being highly effective in all such conditions. It’s also ideal for floors, walls, and roofs. There are many different types of insulation choices available which include the following materials:

1. Expanded Polystyrene (EPS): EPS foam is both cheap and effective, and usually the least expensive of all insulation materials. It also has the highest vapor-permeable quality among the three types of rigid foam available. Other names for EPS are foam board and beadboard, due to its appearance. EPS is used as insulation for insulating concrete and structural panels. Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is one of the best choices for any kind of project, delivering great performance at a low cost.

2. Extruded Polystyrene (XPS): XPS foam is characterized by high compressive strength and water resistance. These features make it suitable for the below-grade insulation of slabs and foundation walls.

3. Polyisocyanurate or Polyiso: This type of foam is considered to be the most environmentally friendly, using water instead of ozone-depleting blowing agents. Because of its water absorption characteristics, it is not appropriate for applications of below-grade. Still, its foil facing feature makes it highly suitable for external drainage planes and it’s flame-resistant, but it’s also quite expensive.

The great thing about EPS continuous insulation products is that they can be used for walls, foundations, roofs, retrofits, and new construction because these materials have a higher r-value than fiberglass or cellulose. All foam insulation products are petroleum derivatives and are sold in sheets of different thicknesses and sizes.
