Our take on the 3/4 in. x 14-1/2 in. x 48 in. R-3 Expanded Polystyrene Foam Board Insulation, 6 Pack

These are six strips of closed-cell expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam board, each 3/4 in. thick, 14-1/2 in. wide and 48 in. long, rated R-3. They are sized to slip between stud cavities and to furr out basement walls, and they cut easily with a utility knife or hot wire. EPS is the cheapest rigid foam type, but at R-3 per 3/4 in. it insulates far less than polyiso or extruded polystyrene (XPS) of the same thickness, so it suits light-duty gap filling, crafts and packing more than serious wall insulation.

Pros
  • Closed-cell EPS holds its R-value over the panel's life
  • Easy to score and snap with a utility knife or hot wire
  • Can be molded and shaped for crafts
  • Light and simple to handle and fit
  • Works for packing as well as insulation
Cons
  • R-3 per 3/4 in. is low next to XPS or polyiso
  • EPS is brittle and crumbles at cut edges
  • Not a structural or moisture-barrier product on its own
  • Strips are narrow, so large areas need many pieces

Questions and answers

What does R-3 mean here?
It is the panel's thermal resistance rating. R-3 is modest: XPS of the same 3/4 in. thickness is roughly R-4 to R-5, and polyiso is higher still.
How do I cut these panels?
A utility knife with several scoring passes, or a hot wire cutter for cleaner edges. EPS crumbles if you force a single deep cut.
Can I use these for basement walls?
Yes, they are made for furring out basement walls and filling stud cavities. They are not a vapor barrier, so pair them with proper moisture control.
Is EPS the same as Styrofoam?
Styrofoam is a brand of extruded polystyrene (XPS), which is denser and a better insulator. These panels are expanded polystyrene, lighter and more brittle.
What is in the box?
Six foam board panels, each 3/4 in. by 14-1/2 in. by 48 in.
Where is the 3/4 in. x 14-1/2 in. x 48 in. R-3 Expanded Polystyrene Foam Board Insulation, 6 Pack cheapest?
At Menards, for $235.62, as of our latest check.
