A Good Foundation Will Include Solid Ground InsulationMuch like the Styrofoam cup you hold each morning with your cup of coffee (without feeling the burning temperatures), Insul-Tarp ground insulation protects against the transfer of hot and cold air. When incorporating concrete insulation, you essentially provide your customers with an igloo effect, keeping the cold on one side and the heat on the other. Just like your coffee cup keeps your hands from feeling the true temperature of what is on the other side. The Insul-Tarp ground insulation acts as a radiant barrier under concrete and is simple to use and easy to install. It ends up saving you labor costs in the end and a lot of headaches for the end user as well. Radiant floor heating systems are very vulnerable to ground temperatures. When concrete insulation is places under the slab it protects the foundation from unnecessary heat loss so the radiant floor heating system can operate at the highest efficiency possible. This ground insulation is light-weight and easy to work with. Laying it under concrete or as in-slab insulation gives an added boost to the overall insulation of the building. Ground heat loss is very common and quite difficult to remedy without proper ground insulation. Begin from the ground up and deliver the proper concrete insulation to protect against heat loss with Insul-Tarp. |
