Water resistant rigid board for under concrete slab insulation and slab support in traffic bearing applications.
Below grade under slab system with foamular extruded polystyrene rigid board insulation and radiant heating.
Slabs that include embedded hydronic tubing for radiant heat always need a continuous layer of horizontal insulation under the entire slab.
For under slab applications the rigid foam insulation typically should be installed over a gravel base with a poly vapor diffusion retarder between the gravel and insulation.
Rigid foam insulation also known as insulating boards provide high r values.
