CONCRETE BLOCK INSULATING SYSTEMS

• Little waste and lower cleanup costs
• Reduced opportunities for loss from theft, vandalism or breakage
• Less downtime and rework since products are inspected off site and delivered ready to use
• Insulation is protected from damage by other trades on jobsite
• Costs are firm - less estimating error
• Designed to ease installation of pipe, reinforcing and conduit
• Improves dewpoint in wall, reduces moisture damage potential
• Much better sound transfer coefficients (lessens exterior noise reaching indoor space
• Eliminates concerns for shrinkage, toxic fumes, irritating fibers, or odors from some insulating systems
• Improves block walls resistance to wind-driven rain by as much as 50%
• Enables block to be easily handled, can be saw cut and moved un-palletized by forklift
• May be used both above and below grade
• Furnishes predictable and consistent thermal values, that endure because the insulation is protected
• Permits excess moisture to escape from properly erected walls, maintaining good performance.
