All building foundations come in contact with the ground. Wherever a building is located, water, temperature, air, and soil on the foundation can impact the performance and integrity of the total structure. Continuous polyiso rigid foam insulation effectively reduces foundation energy loss and protects against moisture problems.
ADVANTAGES OF INSULATING
EXTERIOR VS. INTERIOR SIDE OF THE WALL
It does not reduce the usable building space
Completely continuous for optimal energy efficiency
Mass of foundation within the insulated building envelope
Warm wall solution minimizes condensation on the interior side of the wall
Protects the waterproofing
Eliminates freeze/thaw on structural elements
Easiest install
