PlastiSpan® insulation board can be used either on the interior
or exterior of the foundation wall to provide a monolithic thermal
blanket which eliminates thermal shorts.
PlastiSpan insulation can be attached directly to the interior
surface of the foundation wall. The National Building Code
of Canada requires that interior exposed surfaces be covered
using a thermal barrier, such as gypsum board, attached through
the EPS to the foundation wall.
With its outstanding resistance to moisture absorption, PlastiSpan
insulation provides dependable long-term thermal performance
when installed on the exterior face of the foundation wall.
The use of exterior foundation insulation reduces the likelihood
of frost heave under footings as compared to interior insulation.
