Have Confidence in Fully Tested Ground Insulation

Warmzone doesn’t back or sell products it doesn’t believe in. When it comes to state of the art ground insulation, no corners were shaved and no short cuts taken. Insul-Tarp is the favored radiant barrier used in construction projects as the in-slab insulation choice. This choice is with good reason. Insul-Tarp is constructed of high quality materials and uses unique features to achieve proper ground insulation.

Insul-Tarp ground insulationInsul-Tarp ground insulation features cross-woven polyethylene, high density closed-cell foam and polyethylene bubble, and two layers of reflective aluminum. The average thermal resistance, or tested R-Value for Insul-Tarp is R-7.5 and was tested in accordance with ASTM C518. Having confidence in the radiant heat insulation you are installing is important to any project. When calculating heat loads for radiant heating systems, a performance equivalent of R-10 can be used. This is not a test R-value, yet laboratory tests suggest and support this number as the reasonable gauge for measuring performance.

When tried and true products matter to you in your projects, it is a safe bet to turn to Warmzone. Finding solid and reliable ground insulation in Insul-Tarp is one part of your project you won’t have to worry over. The physical properties of Insul-Tarp ground insulation speak for themselves.
