Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Which side should the metallic facer face?

  • The metallic facer should ideally face a dead air space to maximize R-value. If no dead air space is present, the orientation generally does not significantly impact performance.

• Can this insulation be installed directly under drywall?

  • Yes, drywall can be directly installed over Insulfoam EPS and R-TECH, streamlining the application process.

• What adhesives and tapes are compatible with this insulation?

  • Acrylics, urethanes, and polyether adhesives are most effective. For sealing joints, tapes used in weather-resistant barrier applications are typically compatible.

• Is this insulation suitable for basements or attics?

  • Absolutely, it is an excellent choice for insulating both basements and attics, providing effective thermal barriers.

• Can it be left exposed in certain applications?

  • While it can be left exposed in attics or crawlspaces, local building codes should be checked for other interior uses. Exterior applications generally require a finishing material for protection and aesthetic purposes.
