Why choose foam board for your home insulation?
Foam board insulation is a lightweight, rigid material that offers excellent thermal resistance, helping you save up to 20% on your energy bills. It comes in various thicknesses and is perfect for insulating basements, crawl spaces, exterior walls, and even interior walls for soundproofing.
Best Applications for Foam Board Insulation:
- Basements and foundations: Because it resists moisture, foam board is perfect for insulating basement walls and foundations.
- Crawl spaces: Insulating your crawl space with foam board helps regulate temperatures throughout your home.
- Exterior walls (under siding): Foam board provides additional insulation when placed beneath your home's siding.
- Garage walls and ceilings: Keep your garage comfortable year-round with foam board insulation.
- Interior walls (soundproofing): Certain types of foam board offer some soundproofing benefits for interior walls.
- Attics and roof decks: Foam board is also ideal for insulating attics and roof decks, further enhancing your home's energy efficiency.
How to Cut Foam Board Insulation:
- Utility knife: For thin foam boards, a sharp utility knife with a fresh blade works well.
- Jab saw: For thicker boards or more precise cuts, use a jab saw with a fine-tooth blade.
- Power tools: Consider using a jigsaw or circular saw for thick foam boards, but be cautious and wear proper safety gear.
Can You Paint Foam Board Insulation? Yes, you can paint foam board insulation, but using the right type of paint is crucial. Opt for water-based latex paint specifically designed for polystyrene or polyisocyanurate foam.
Installing Foam Board Insulation on Exterior Walls: Installing foam board on exterior walls requires proper techniques and building codes may apply. For best results, consult a qualified contractor to ensure a secure and efficient installation.
