  Floor Insulation

 


Floors Over Unheated Spaces
These floors feature a complete cavity insulation fill.

Floors over conditioned crawlspace areas do not require floor insulation.

No open air spaces reduce likelihood of moisture damage.

Conditioned Crawlspaces
Indiana Code now allows for unvented crawlspaces by making them "conditioned spaces."

No vents are required. (See Walls, Ceiling & Attic)

A properly designed drainage plan draws water away from home.

Insulated Concrete Slabs
Vertical and horizontal R-10 insulation is put in place under the slab for the first two feet for added homeowner comfort.

A 6 mil vapor barrier between ground and slab is added to inhibit moisture build-up.
