Buy good quality high strength R10 Insulation at Wedge India to improve the thermal efficiency of buildings. Its relatively high R-value makes it suitable for use in areas where significant insulation is required to prevent heat loss or gain, thereby enhancing energy efficiency and indoor comfort.

 

R10 insulation refers to insulation with an R-value of 10, which indicates its thermal resistance or ability to resist heat flow. This level of insulation provides moderate thermal protection and is typically used in specific applications where higher R-values are not required, such as in mild climates or certain parts of a building.

 

Key Types of R10 Insulation

1. Foam Board Insulation:

• Material: Typically made from extruded polystyrene (XPS), expanded polystyrene (EPS), or polyisocyanurate.

• Thickness: Usually around 1.5 to 2 inches thick to achieve an R-value of 10, depending on the material.

• Applications: Commonly used on exterior walls, foundations, basement walls, and as continuous insulation in building envelopes. It is also used under floors or in crawl spaces.

• Benefits: Provides good thermal resistance in a relatively thin profile, is moisture-resistant, and helps reduce thermal bridging when used on the exterior of a building.

2. Spray Foam Insulation:

• Material: Closed-cell spray foam can achieve an R-value of 10 at approximately 1.5 to 2 inches thick.

• Applications: Ideal for areas where space is limited or irregular, such as around windows, doors, pipes, and other penetrations. It also acts as an air barrier and provides additional moisture control.

• Benefits: Offers high thermal resistance, air sealing, and moisture resistance in one application, making it highly effective in reducing heat loss and improving energy efficiency.

3. Mineral Wool or Fiberglass Batts:

• Material: Rock wool or fiberglass batts can be manufactured to provide an R-value of 10, though typically they are used in thicker configurations for higher R-values.

• Applications: May be used in specific interior walls, partitions, or areas requiring moderate insulation. Common in places like basements, garages, or interior walls where full thermal control is less critical.

• Benefits: Easy to install, provides good soundproofing, and is fire-resistant. However, batts typically require thicker assemblies to reach R10.

4. Rigid Fiberglass Insulation:

• Material: Rigid fiberglass boards can also be used to achieve an R-value of 10.

• Applications: Often used in HVAC applications, such as duct insulation, or in commercial settings where soundproofing and thermal control are needed.

• Benefits: Provides thermal and acoustic insulation, with some fire resistance properties.

 

Common Applications of R10 Insulation

1. Basement Walls and Crawl Spaces:

• Provides adequate insulation in areas where moderate thermal resistance is needed to prevent heat loss from the building’s foundation.

2. Exterior Sheathing:

• Used as continuous insulation on exterior walls, R10 foam boards help to reduce thermal bridging through framing and increase overall wall performance.

3. Floors Over Unconditioned Spaces:

• Ideal for insulating floors above garages or unheated basements, where moderate thermal resistance is sufficient.

4. Interior Partitions:

• Used in interior walls or partitions where the goal is to reduce sound transmission rather than provide full thermal insulation.

5. Specialty Areas:

• Suitable for specific applications like hot tubs, HVAC ductwork, or areas where a compact insulation solution with decent thermal properties is needed.
