Identify Energy Code & Climate Zone Requirements
Depending on where the building is located, the energy code and climate zone should be easily defined. States continue to adopt newer editions for improved energy efficiency and air barrier requirements.
Latest code adoption by state

Determine the Insulation Thickness to Meet Code Requirements
Continuous insulation (ci) is the cornerstone to meeting a code’s energy requirements, which can easily be met by varying the thickness of the glass-infused polyisocyanurate foam core, THERMAX™ insulation, in metal buildings.
Determine the Insulation Thickess
The air barrier requirement of ASHRAE 90.1-2010 will bring a new dimension to how buildings are sealed.
Achieve a continuous air and moisture barrier and excellent energy efficiency with:
FROTH-PAK™ Foam Insulation has also passed third-party testing to meet air barrier component requirements and meets NFPA 286 approval for roof/wall juncture sealing.
