Underslab Insulation
"The Industry's #1 Selling
Under-Slab Insulation!" |
Insul-Tarp®
is a patented revolutionary product like no
other on the market today. Its lightweight,
Space Age design integrates closed cell foam and
an aluminum reflective material with a
protective poly coating all within three thin
layers. The durable poly coating protects the
insulating material from potentially damaging
surfaces and is impermeable to moisture, helping
it to maintain a high R-value in a minimal
amount of space.  The physical characteristics
and overall design of Insul-Tarp® make it
the most effective product for insulating under
concrete slabs in Residential, Commercial and
Agricultural radiant heating systems.
Insul-Tarp®'s
innovative combination of layers enable it to
effectively control all three modes of heat
transfer -- Conduction, Convection and
Radiation. In a heated slab, Insul-Tarp®
improves the performance of the radiant heating
system and provides higher slab temperature
output.

| Why Insul-Tarp®
Works
Insul-Tarp®
insulation was designed specifically for
under slab applications. Insul-Tarp®
provides excellent
thermal performance and a vapor barrier
all in one easy to use product. In most
applications the ground temperature that
the insulation is directly exposed to is
a consistent 50-55 degrees. Foam board
insulation will eventually stabilize at
that temperature level. Therefore the
foam insulation provides a consistent
drain on the radiant system and the
slab. Because of the innovative
combination of layers of insulation and
aluminum, Insul-Tarp® allows the
slab to reach a desired temperature
quicker and therefore the heating system
performs more efficiently. Insul-Tarp®
stands alone. |

| Quick
Installation
Insul-Tarp®
can take less than 1/4 the time of
conventional insulation to install.
While rigid insulation requires the
subsoil surface to be lowered and
leveled, no special preparations are
needed to accommodate Insul-Tarp®.
Installation around plumbing is almost
effortless. Simply cut an "X" in the
tarp and slide it over the top of the
pipe. Less time, less mess and less
effort.
Quicker Response Time
With Insul-Tarp®'s
under-slab installation, the response
time of the heating system is quicker
and more consistent due to the
insulation's insulative properties. |

| |
Insul-Tarp®, as
shown here, has been rolled out
and installed with radiant
tubing clipped to wire mesh.
|
Insul-Tarp®
significantly decreases the heat loss to the
earth below the slab, allowing the system to
react more efficiently and accurately to a shift
in temperature. A quicker response time means a
happier customer.
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, creating a
safer environment for your customer.

Roll Sizes
6' X 25' = 12lbs.
12' x 25' = 25 lbs.*
*12' rolls
consist of (2) 6' rolls seamed
together.
Width on these rolls
may vary.
Note:
On any roll size, always estimate 10% extra to
ensure you order enough for proper coverage. | |
