Continuous insulation is an important part of creating a comfortable and energy-efficient space. Here are some tips for installing continuous insulation: Review and follow project-specific requirements and installation methods. Make sure the continuous insulation system materials (insulation, sub-framing, fasteners, and weather-resistant barrier accessories) are properly installed. Ensure the overall system is properly sealed and protected...
Introduction Continuous insulation is an increasingly important part of modern building design, responsible for helping to improve the energy efficiency of buildings and creating more comfortable living and working spaces. As the need for energy conservation continues to increase, retrofitting existing buildings with continuous insulation is becoming a more urgent task. However, there are various...
Introduction In the construction industry, the need for energy-efficient and high-performance building envelopes has led to the increased adoption of continuous insulation systems. As these systems become more prevalent, the importance of systems with efficient installation methods that save time and money without compromising quality has grown. This article explores the potential of these installation...
When it comes to designing efficient and comfortable buildings, insulation is an essential component. Insulation helps regulate temperatures inside the building and cut down on energy costs. But when it comes to insulation, what is R-value, and how does it play a role in commercial buildings? This article will provide a guide for architects looking...

Advanced Architectural Products offers a range of SMARTci continuous insulation systems designed for different building structures and requirements. In this guide, we will discuss each of the...
Introduction When it comes to selecting the proper insulation for your building project, there are many options on the market, making it challenging to determine which type is the best choice for your individual project needs. Spray foam insulation and rigid foam insulation are two common types used in continuous insulation systems, but how can...
To create an effective continuous insulation system in your building, choosing the right insulation material to meet your project-specific requirements is essential. There are several types of insulation materials used with continuous insulation systems. This article discusses three common thermal insulation materials: mineral wool, rigid foam board, and spray foam. Each type of material has...
What is continuous insulation? As energy codes have become more stringent, the use of continuous insulation (CI) has increased in new construction and retrofits. CI is a thermal barrier that helps prevent heat loss and improves the energy efficiency of a building. It is typically installed on the exterior of a building, wrapping around the...
You may have heard the term continuous insulation, but what is it really? Knowing what options are on the market in a world of increasing energy prices and demands for better energy efficiency is key to a project’s success and a well-designed, long-lasting building. When thinking about a building’s energy efficiency, insulation should be top...
In the year 2000, the International Code Council created a building code known as the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC). This was to require a certain level of responsible energy efficiency in regard to design and construction. Since then, many strides have been made in various areas of construction (both commercial and residential). The industry has...
