Looking for a foundation insulation system that performs in all conditions?
EPS foundation insulation offers a cost-effective solution that meets or exceeds modern energy codes. With its high resistance to moisture, fungus, and decay, EPS ensures reliable long-term performance in diverse soil and climate conditions. Custom sizes and configurations allow for easy installation in both new construction and retrofit projects.
What is EPS Foundation Insulation?
EPS Foundation Insulation is expanded polystyrene foam designed to insulate foundation walls, slabs, and masonry cores. It provides dependable long-term thermal performance while resisting moisture, fungus, and decay.
Can EPS be used below grade?
Yes. EPS is specifically engineered for below-grade use. It maintains its R-value and integrity even when exposed to soil and ground moisture.
Does EPS insulation resist moisture and decay?
Absolutely. EPS is closed-cell and highly resistant to water absorption, fungus, and decay. This makes it ideal for foundation applications where damp conditions are common.
How does EPS compare with other types of foundation insulation?
EPS is more cost-effective than many alternatives, while still delivering consistent thermal resistance and durability. Unlike some materials, EPS won’t degrade over time and offers excellent R-value per dollar.
Can EPS be combined with masonry block construction?
Yes. EPS loose fill can be placed inside masonry block cores to boost R-values and improve the thermal performance of block wall foundations.
Is EPS insulation code-compliant for residential and commercial buildings?
Yes. EPS insulation meets or exceeds ASTM standards and complies with modern energy codes, making it approved for both residential and commercial use.
