Product Data Sheet FOAMULAR 250 - idi-insulation.com

1 FOAMULAR 250 Rigid Foam InsulationProduct data Sheet Provides insulation in a metal or woodfurring system used for masonry orconcrete walls. Perform below grade in perimeter andfoundation applications, or directlybeneath the concrete slab to complementthe insulating sheathing envelope aroundthe building to common soils and decay,Owens Corning FORMULAR retains itsinsulating performance characteristics evenafter prolonged exposure to and Codes Compliance Recognized by code authorities underResearch Reports BOCA 91-54; ICBO 3628; SBCCI PST & ESI 9727 Meets HUD/FHA Use of MaterialsBulletin No. 71 and ASTM C 578-92 Type IV Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Classification Certificate U-197 Thermal resistance: at 75 F, at 40 F mean temperature and 1" thickness (hr x ft2x F/Btu)All-purpose foam panelinsulation for masonry and other Corning FOAMULAR 250 extrudedpolystyrene insulation is ideal for wallfurring, perimeter/ foundation, cavity wall,crawlspace, pre-cast concrete, under slab,roofing systems, sheathing and otherapplications.

2 Owens Corning s patentedHydrovac process technology make theunique closed-cell structure of FOAMULAR insulation highly resistant to moisture,retaining it s initial R-value* year after year even following prolonged exposure towater leakage, humidity, condensation,ground water and freeze/ thaw 250 Performance Benefits High R-value (R-5 per inch of productthickness).* Compressive strength of 25 psi. Effective resistance against moisture,mildew, corrosion and rot. Ease of handling and installation(lightweight, tough, rigid foam panels). Easy to saw, cut and score Wide selection of sizes and thicknesses. Availability in straight, tongue andgroove, or scored square edges. Compliance with building codes 250 Superior insulation Performance for aWide Variety of Building RequirementsProduct ApplicationsHigh-performance FOAMULAR 250 works to: Retard the transmission of water vaporand moisture in masonry walls, helpingprevent structural Information FOAMULAR insulation is ideal for allbuildings under normal temperatureconditions, but should not be used incontact with chimneys, heater vents,steam pipes or other surfaces wheretemperatures exceed 150 F.

3 It is notrecommended for applications wheresustained temperatures exceed 165 F. All construction should be evaluated forthe necessity to provide vapor current ASHRAE Handbook ofFundamentals FOAMULAR insulation is a non-structural material and must be installed on framings which areindependently structurally adequate to meet required construction andservice loading conditions.*The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power.
