EnergyEdge® products are designed to meet construction standards for energy performance in compliance with ASHRAE and ICC, and contribute to EnergyStar, LEED, GreenBuild and numerous other building science recommendations.
Preventing Energy Loss at the Slab Edge
EnergyEdge products work! The FLIR photos above show the amount
of energy that can be lost when insulation is not properly installed.
Studies show that between 8%-24% of a buildings energy loss is through
an un-insulated slab edge. Energy Edge protects the most critical point
of energy loss at this area- the exposed slab edge.
Meet Basic Energy Code Requirements &
Help Achieve EnergyStar, LEED, GreedBuild
Using Energy Edge is not an “above-and-beyond” addition to the thermal envelope-
it is the basic requirement for code compliance. EnergyEdge products have been
designed as a direct result of increased pressure on design professional and
contractors to build with energy performance in mind. Guidelines for a properly
insulated slab have been in place since 1989 with research dating back to the
50′s.
