Below Grade / Foundations Insulation That's Efficient and Growing in Popularity
The use of expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation for foundations and floors below grade has been consistently growing in popularity. EPS insulation is an efficient method of conserving heat energy in cold climates and air conditioning energy in warm climates. The insulation is used to "reduce slab-edge heat loss and hold heat from the house in the ground under the footings." This helps to prevent frost heave because the insulation raises the frost line around the foundation.For more information on how Co-Star EPS products can work for your foundation or below-grade insulation project, contact us today or request a quote.
