ISO R-Value Chart: Thickness Of Polyiso Insulation (1-20 Inches)
Using polyisocyanurate R-value per inch, we can calculate what is the R-value of any polyiso thickness. To help you out with this calculation, we have designed ‘Polyiso R-Value Thickness Calculator’.
Rigid Polyiso Foam Board Insulation: Benefits and R-Value - Rmax
Oct 3, 2022 · Does Polyiso Have a High R-Value? Polyiso has a high R-value per inch when compared to other insulation products, see the chart below. This allows Polyiso products to deliver more energy savings potential for buildings than other materials of the same thickness.
Rigid Insulation R-Value Per Inch: A Comprehensive Guide - Rmax
Nov 17, 2023 · In real-world applications, R-value numbers tell you how thick, or how many layers, you need to install your insulation to achieve the proper rigid foam insulation R value required by code. Let’s say you’re installing polyiso on your walls and R-20 continuous insulation is required by code.

Foam Board / Continuous Insulation - Johns Manville
Johns Manville Polyiso foam continuous insulation boards provide a layer of insulation to reduce thermal bridging and improve energy efficiency. Polyiso consists of a uniform closed-cell polyisocyanurate foam core and provides one of the highest R …
Polyiso Insulation Explained - GAF
Oct 7, 2020 · The aim of this article is to examine the factors influencing the thermal resistance, known as R-value of polyiso. The prediction of long term R-value and the influence of climate, i.e. temperature, have been of significant interest over the past few decades as building energy budgets have increased in importance.
Rigid Insulation R-Value Per Inch (+ EPS, XPS, ISO ... - LearnMetrics
As you can see, polyiso has the highest rigid insulation R-value. A new polyiso will have an R-value of R-6.8 per inch. This is a 31% higher R-value than high-density XPS and a 62% higher R-value than high-density EPS. It is worth noting that the …
R-values are measured on full thickness samples following a 180-day conditioning period (that can be reduced to 90-days under an accelerated conditioning environment).
A comparison of minimum LTTR values based on the Polyisocyanurate Insulation Manufacturers Association’s QualityMark cm program and NRCA’s recommended design in-service R-values
* Isocast™ R Polyisocyanurate Insulation is a former product of The Dow Chemical Company. ** R means resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power.
