Walls That Work
no matter what
|
Imagine
buildings where the walls work -no matter what. Stud frame
buildings with cavities of CORBOND Isolation do work - no
matter what. Hot climate, cold climate, wet or dry,
windy or calm, heating or air-conditioning - no matter
what. |
| Builders
and building scientists know that the greatest enemy of
building efficiency is air infiltration and movement
of air into insulation. The enemy of building longevity
is hidden moisture condensation causing mildew and decay,
not to mention the threat to health and comfort caused by
these agents. Picture CORBOND Climate Isolation System
- the solution to these concerns of insulation contractors,
builders, designers and building owners. |
| While
conventional fiber insulation in the right conditions may
achieve thermal insulation with some success, it, by its
nature of using the air to insulate, cannot isolate the
air of the two climates. Air is mixed into the fiber with
each change to outdoor temperature or wind condition-compromising
thermal quality. Air contains moisture, which when cooled,
seeks to drop out on a surface as condensation. This occurs
at building sheathing in the heating season and at the back
of sheetrock in the air-conditioning season. Efforts to
solve these problems have included caulking, house wraps
and sealing tape, vapor retarders, venting, and foam sheathing,
together endeavoring to achieve what we really need - isolation |
| CORBOND successfully
achieves thermal isolation, air isolation and moisture isolation.
Both the indoor and outdoor climate are effectively displaced
out of the cavity permanently as the CORBOND is installed
in its seamless fully adhered form. |
| It is the complete
isolation of the interior climate from the exterior climate
that describes how the CORBOND system successfully deals
with the complexities of building insulation operating in
all climates. Climate isolation is the full separation of
the climates. CORBOND works by not allowing the interior
climate (heating or cooling) to mix with the exterior climate
(whether hot or cold). As seasons change and heating turns
to air-conditioning, CORBOND is unaffected by the reversal
of moisture drives. It works both ways! |

Go ahead - Picture this tough,
high R-value, solid cellular plastic material spray installed
between studs - a pleasant lavender colored CORBOND
tenaciously adhered to all it touches, being what insulation
was meant to be - Isolation.
