Insultop for underslab insulation
Todd LaBarge on Bob Vila program: Okay. Concrete's coming. We're going to get ready to pour and this product that we're using for underslab insulation is called Insultop. We've been using Insultop because, for one of the main reasons the guy has just started, laying Insultop about ten minutes ago , and we're done and ready for the concrete truck. When it rolls out here, it forms the insulation and the vapor barrier, so the labor savings is huge. And the cost is pretty much comparable to using a rigid insulation in the poly vapor barrier, but the labor is going to be. You're going to save on some labor. So this is what the insultop is made up of. It's designed to be reflective, so when you put a radiant tubing on here, it will reflect the heat from the radiant tube. So, you have a reflective layer you got another kind of an air bubble layer, and then two layers of some roll out insulation and another reflective layer. So it's all in one and it comes out equivalent to conventionally, what we would have done is rigged insulation in a vapor barrier.
