Continuous Insulation Sheathing Simplifies Energy Code Compliance
Typical wall assemblies offer numerous pathways for heat to exit through exterior walls. Heat lost through wall surface thermal bridging can add up to annual energy losses of 40%. Although some builders have offered energy-efficient projects as a premium feature to clients, code requirements often mandate this now.
Many builders are looking for simple solutions to prevent thermal bridging both to satisfy the demand for more energy-efficient projects and to comply with the latest energy codes without fundamentally altering building techniques. Optimum thermal insulation from Neopor® Continuous Insulation Sheathing (CIS) by BASF is the practical and economical way to reduce such losses and promote energy efficiency.
Neopor® CIS has excellent structural properties for thermal insulation of residential and commercial exterior walls. By using Neopor® CIS, builders can meet the latest energy codes and homeowners can benefit from the energy savings and increased home comfort.
