Construction Marketplace 2 1 Wednesday, January 22, 2020 Kooltherm K9 Internal Insulation Board from Kingspan Kingspan Insulation has introduced the new Kooltherm ® K9 Internal Insulation Board that is ideal for basement, crawl space, attic and habitable space wall applications. It is suitable for both new build and retrofit projects and is fast and easy to install. Insulating interior habitable space walls can improve a home's energy effi- ciency, provide substantial energy cost savings, keep rooms more comfortable and prevent moisture problems. The materials you choose are very important to prevent mold in habitable space walls. Kooltherm K9 Internal Insulation Board can help you build a better basement or finish an existing basement and can help stop the conditions that promote mold growth. It is a cost-effective alternative to spray foam and in colder climates, installing interior basement wall insula- tion will almost always result in lower energy bills and a healthier, more com- fortable home. Kooltherm K9 Internal Insulation Board is installed directly to interior space concrete walls and can provide reliable long-term thermal per- formance over the life- time of the home. Its high R-value allows for increased internal floor space, and unlike other rigid insulation, it is NFPA 286 compliant; for exposed inter- nal applications and does not require a protected layer of drywall. The core of Kingspan Kooltherm K9 Internal Insulation Board is a premium performance rigid thermoset fiber-free, phenolic insulant, manufactured with a blowing agent that has zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and low Global Warming Potential (GWP). It offers an R-value of 17 on 2 inches, outstanding fire and smoke performance, and is unaffected by air infil- tration. Kingspan Kooltherm K9 Internal Insulation Board has a glass tissue based facing, adhesively bonded to the insu- lation core during manufacture. It is available in standard sizes or can be ordered in custom lengths and comes in R-values ranging from 10 to 33.5.
