Masonry Wall Insulation

We offer a wide variety of reflective, rigid, and semi-rigid insulation products suitable for any application. Please contact us to learn more about the diverse types of insulation available in Florida.

Masonry Walls have built-in insulation

• Reduce heat gain and loss with mass
• Small portion of overall load - 6%
• Masonry Wall with an R-4 added insulation is equivalent to an R-13 frame wall
• Invested energy dollars are better spent on higher load areas in the structure such as roof systems, windows, infiltration, and mechanical systems

 

Reflective Insulation

• AA2 Vapor Shield Reflective Insulation achieves an R-4.2 on 3/4" furring, R-5.2 on 1-1/2" furring
• VR Plus Shield achieves an R-7.1 on 1-1/2" furring for higher requirements
• Achieves R-value requirement at lowest cost
• Safe for the environment - no ozone or greenhouse gasses
• Stable R-value - no gasses to leak out or mass to hold moisture
• Meets Florida Energy Code
• Energy Star Rating
• International Code & Dade County Compliance

 

Rigid Insulation

• Enhances thermal efficiency, reducing energy costs
• Contribute to durable surface that can be nailed, stapled, or glued
• Prevent air penetration and water vapor intrusion
• Allow products to be detailed as a weather-resistive barrier
• Allow foam R-Value to stabilize at higher value
• Thickness can range from less than 1" up to 4" - R-Values from R5 up to R25
• Easy to handle and install - can be cut with utility knife or any sharp blade
• Easy to store and transport - less damage and job-site waste
• Most rigid board insulation comes in 4' x 8' sheets
• Versatile - Ideal for numerous applications - compatible with most exterior finishes
• Some types may be left exposed - no thermal barrier necessary
• Environmentally friendly - Hydrocarbon blowing agent (no ozone depletion potential)

Semi-Rigid Insulation

• Installed into hollow block to completely fill voids and odd shapes
• Fully fills joints and pores to reduce air infiltration and unwanted heat loss/gain
• Will not settle or expand or fall out of openings
• Multiple applications - pipe chases/chutes, window/door frames, retro/new construction
• Provides thermal and acoustical benefits
• R-Value is greater than R4.0 per inch
• Mold resistant
