Material Use:
SOPRA-ISO V ALU is a high-performance, closed-cell polyisocyanurate (polyiso) foam insulation board designed for use in wall systems. It is engineered to provide superior thermal insulation and features a radiant barrier reflective foil facer on both sides, enhancing its energy efficiency by reflecting radiant heat.
System Components:
SOPRA-ISO V ALU is a standalone insulation component but is typically used in conjunction with mechanical fasteners or compatible adhesives, depending on the substrate. It can be integrated into wall assemblies that include air/vapour barrier membranes, structural sheathing, and cladding systems. While it does not require primers or coatings, it must be protected from prolonged UV exposure and should be covered within 60 days of installation.
Applications:
This insulation board is suitable for use in both commercial and residential wall assemblies. It can be installed over a variety of substrates including concrete, wood, wood studs, steel studs, and glass-mat gypsum. It is ideal for use in exterior wall systems where high thermal resistance and moisture control are required.
Application Details:
SOPRA-ISO V ALU is installed using mechanical fasteners (screws and stress plates) or adhesives. The minimum penetration depth for fasteners varies by substrate:
- Wood studs: 19.0 mm (3/4 in)
- Steel studs: 6.5 mm (1/4 in)
- Concrete walls: 19.0 to 32.0 mm (3/4 in to 1 1/4 in)
The insulation is available in thicknesses ranging from 13.0 mm to 102.0 mm (0.5 in to 4.0 in), with standard board dimensions of 1.2 m x 2.4 m (4 ft x 8 ft). Custom sizes are available upon request.
Special Notes:
- Thermal Performance: SOPRA-ISO V ALU offers excellent thermal resistance, with R-values ranging from R-3.30 at 0.5 in thickness to R-26.80 at 4.0 in thickness. Long-term thermal resistance (LTTR) values are also provided, ensuring consistent performance over time.
- Environmental Limits: The service temperature range is from -60 °C to 93 °C (-76 °F to 199 °F), making it suitable for a wide range of climates.
- Moisture Resistance: The board has low water absorption (1.0% by volume) and low water vapour permeance (≤ 15.0 ng/Pa•s•m² at 25.4 mm), contributing to its durability in humid environments.
- Fire Performance: SOPRA-ISO V ALU meets CAN/ULC S102 and ASTM E84 standards with flame spread ratings below 75 and smoke development below 450.
- Storage and Handling: Panels are packaged for short-term protection during transit. For outdoor storage, they must be elevated at least 75 mm (3 in) off the ground, stored flat, and covered with a waterproof tarp. The factory packaging should be removed to prevent condensation buildup.
Limitations:
- Not a structural product; must be used in conjunction with appropriate structural elements.
- Must be covered within 60 days of installation to prevent UV degradation.
- Not intended for use in roofing systems unless specified by the manufacturer.
SOPRA-ISO V ALU is a reliable and efficient insulation solution for wall assemblies, offering excellent thermal performance, moisture resistance, and ease of installation across a variety of substrates.
