R50 Roof Insulation

R 50 systems rich e board provides this same r value at 1.

R50 roof insulation. This calculator is to be used as an estimating tool only. The higher the r value the better the thermal performance of the insulation. The table below shows what levels of insulation are cost effective for different climates and locations in the home. Click the button to calculate the approximate r value for this job.

Vacuum insulation panel vip new r50 threshhold is the next step in the advancement of vacuum insulation. R is referring to r value. Architects engineers and roofing consultants turn to r 50 products because they can deliver. An r value is given to a product to indicate the ability for the insulation to resist heat flow.

High r value low profile insulation reduced building modification costs. It provides exceptionally high r value at moderate vacuum levels which results in increased energy savings increased usable volume and very long panel life. Insulation level are specified by r value. Find your zone on the map and then use the chart to determine the level of insulation you need to properly insulate your attic walls floors and crawlspaces.

R 50 systems has introduced ultra thin insulation solutions to the roofing market revolutionary alternatives for commercial industrial and government buildings only. Achieving greater r values in attics the higher the r value the better the thermal performance of the insulation. R value is a measure of insulation s ability to resist heat traveling through it. When assessing your insulation needs it is always best to think of heat transfer.

The ultra thin lightweight design decreases costs of building modifications and structural retrofits while creating more usable space for living and or operations. Conventional insulation requires thicknesses of up to 15 to reach an r value of 50. The rich e board is the most advanced insulation technology on the market today and features an r 50 systems vacuum insulated panel vip sandwiched between two polymeric foam cover boards. But you get almost seamless insulation and no thermal bridging fabulous energy performance.

The higher the r the better the resistance to heat flow in most cases. Input depth of existing blown in insulation in inches.
