Insul-Tarp Ground Insulation
Insul-Tarp® under-concrete slab
insulation stands alone as the most effective under-slab
radiant floor insulation on the market. The
patented design of Insul-Tarp ground insulation
integrates closed-cell foam and aluminum reflective
technology with a strong, cross-woven polyethylene
coating, all in three thin layers. The result is a
lightweight, flexible and extremely durable
radiant insulation with unprecedented efficiency. FAST, SIMPLE INSTALLATION Insul-Tarp can be installed in less than half the time of conventional ground insulation. Unlike other rigid, less effective, in-slab insulation products, Insul-Tarp does not require any special installation preparations, resulting in cost savings because of reduced time and labor demands. To install Insul-Tarp around pipes and other plumbing fixtures, simply cut an "x" in the insulation and slide it over the top of the pipe. ENHANCES RESPONSE TIME OF RADIANT FLOOR HEATING SYSTEMS The response time of radiant floor heating systems are quicker and more consistent due to the physical characteristics of the Insul-Tarp slab insulation. Insul-Tarp also decreases heat loss below the slab, allowing the radiant floor warming system to react more efficiently and accurately to temperature shifts. The technologically advanced features of Insul-Tarp dramatically enhance the efficiency of radiant floor heating systems, which can ultimately result in higher performance and lower operating costs.
Insul-Tarp's rugged cross woven polyethylene shell provides a durable coating to withstand construction traffic and will maintain its integrity during installation to provide a constant thermal break beneath the concrete slab. EFFECTIVE VAPOR AND RADON BARRIER Insul-Tarp's low perm rate allows it to act as a vapor barrier. Therefore, it becomes very effective in preventing radon gas infiltration, ensuring a safe, comfortable environment.
