GUIDELINES FOR SUMMIT XPS INSULATION BOARD USAGE
- Summit XPS insulation board is a bulk insulator, used to prevent the transfer of heat through conduction and convection
- The greater the thickness the more insulation Summit XPS board will provide
- All other factors being equal, temperatures will be more stable in better-insulated buildings
- Different climatic regions require different insulation interventions to achieve similar levels of comfort (as well as legal compliance)
- Summit XPS board is a thermal insulation solution. It should not be used in isolation as a sound barrier. Consult a noise reduction system specialist
- Contact us to determine the appropriate Summit XPS insulation board thickness for your application.
