EXe 2.5 Exterior Applications

The EXe 2.5 is our most versatile exterior grade panel optimized for masonry or framed construction. It combines all the best features of continuous insulation that is the EXe: rainscreen, insulation, furring, with self-flashing panels ready for finishing. Eliminating parts, pieces and guess work in the field conditions.



One Part Not So Many Pieces

InSoFast panels reduce the complication of building an exterior wall assembly with an all-in-one rainscreen and insulation solution

Features

1One Part Not So Many Pieces
  • R-10 Closed-cell EPS Continuous Insulation
  • Stable insulation with zero thermal drift
  • Built-in Drain and Dry Technology
  • Mold-Resistant, Embedded Stud Framing
  • Tight Interlocking Tongue and Groove Edges
  • Stud framing included attach any finish
  • Why work so hard? When you don’t have too!
2The easiest way to install continuous insulation.
  • Self-flashing panels; no taping seams
  • Simple to install; less parts and pieces
  • No special tools or training needed
  • A measuring tape is optional
  • Lives up to its name: In So Fast
    • 3Rain Screen Insulation
    • InSoFast’s rain screen, “drain-and-dry”

    • Exterior Rated Moisture Control Tested to;
      • ORSC, Section R703.1.1-approved rain screen and drainage technology
    4Double Thermal Disconnect
    • The panel provides a double thermal and moisture disconnect
    • Uninterrupted continuous insulation (CI)
      • InSoFast goes beyond just “CI”. The fastener that attaches the panel is recessed a ½” reducing thermal shorts to near zero.
      • Fastening the exterior cladding does not penetrate the weather resistant barrier keeping your building secure and dry.
    • EXe 2.5 panel continuous insulation is the best choice for continuous-continuous insulation.

    NFPA 285 Wall Assemblies

    National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) in the International Building Code states that - wall assemblies shall be tested in accordance with and comply with the acceptance criteria of NFPA 285. InSoFast has tested and passed these stringent guidelines, here are a few of the possibilities that will work with the InSoFast continuous insulation panel. Please contact us for specific details.

    InSoFast Plus Method

    Need a higher R-value? No Problem! Start with a base of InSoFast continuous insulation panels that are feature-rich and easy to install and then add rigid foam insulation over top of InSoFast panels.
