Easy Code Compliance: UA Method
Changing codes and standards? We can help.
Optimizing Performance?
¡ñ Design for 2021 IECC and beyond?
¡ñ Simplify thermal compliance paths
¡ñ Build to Energy Star v3.2 and Zero-Energy Ready Home standards?
Thermal bridging minimized. Energy efficiency maximized. Zero compromised.
Using exterior CI on the wall can help achieve high overall R-Values quickly compared to adding more insulation to the roof or stud cavity since the high surface area provides significant opportunity for improvement.
?
The many benefits of continuous insulation.
¡ñ Simpler code compliance
¡ñ More options for envelope insulation design
¡ñ Limit call-backs with condensation mitigation and durability
¡ñ Potential to optimize HVAC sizing and reduce equipment costs
¡ñ Exceptional moisture resistance
¡ñ Compatible with variety of building types
¡ñ Boost homeowner comfort
Simplified thermal compliance paths?can help lead you to hassle-free efficiency.?
The U-Factor Area (UA) alternative method is a code compliance pathway that allows more flexibility than the prescriptive method by permitting trade-offs between R-values for roofs, walls, windows, and foundations.?
Using exterior CI can help optimize UA values quickly compared to adding more insulation to the roof or stud cavity since the large? surface area provides significant opportunity, and the high effective R-value directly improves UA.?
