Silvercote Basement Wall Insulation is a fiberglass blanket laminated to a reinforced facing. It insulates basement walls without the cost of full framing or finishing the interior walls. It can be used in new construction or to retrofit existing homes.
The facing can be left exposed or covered, including in areas like crawlspaces. The blanket is bonded with a hot melt adhesive lamination, which gives a smoother finish. This lets the blanket be installed with appropriate droop while keeping a clean interior appearance.
It can be installed horizontally or vertically, so you can insulate a full wall or only a half wall. The product meets the iECC code for a continuous R-value and has a Class A fire rating.
