Rigid Urethane Roof Insulation

The ideal roof there s a reason polyiso rigid foam insulation is used in more than 70 of commercial roof construction as well as in many residential builds.

Rigid urethane roof insulation.

Owens corning foamular 250 extruded polystyrene xps rigid foam insulation is a closed cell highly moisture resistant rigid foam board well suited to meet the needs for a wide variety of residential and commercial construction applications. For insulated panels and boards we offer polyurethane systems that are lightweight increase energy efficiency improve longevity and meet the most demanding industry requirements. Also known as rigid insulation it offers a high r value which helps keep your home at a comfortable temperature even on the coldest days. For polyurethane pur and polyisocyanurate pir foam insulation systems our high performance surfactants boost energy efficiency.

There are a few different types of rigid foam insulation including expanded and extruded polystyrene insulation. Polyiso is an easy cost effective sustainable and energy efficient construction material. Rigid insulation is one of the best tools to reduce your energy costs. Rigid foam insulation also known as insulating boards provide high r values.

Choose rigid insulation wisely and consider the effect its characteristics will have on the performance of the your project overall product cost and the best way to get the bang for your buck. Rigid foam insulation packs a lot of r value into a thin package but not all rigid foam performs the same. The r value is a measurement of the heat loss and heat gain. Rigid foam installation after the roof deck is ready the rigid foam insulation is installed.

They keep your home at a comfortable temperature without the need to crank your heat. Its thermal conductivity has a typical value of 0 16 btu in hr ft 2 f 0 023 w m k depending on the perimeter area ratio. Install it anywhere from the roof to the foundation. Pir is typically produced as a foam and used as rigid thermal insulation.

With a minimum of 70 recycled content the installed thermafiber products contributed to valuable leed credits helping the building earn a leed platinum certification. We re proud to say our products can be found in some of the tallest and safest buildings around the globe like salesforce tower. Rigid polyurethane and polyisocyanurate foams are effective insulation materials that can be used by architects builders and contractors to meet today s stringent energy code requirements 1 depending on product specific composition factors the fire performance characteristics of polyurethane.
