Xps roof insulation types x 15 psi iv 25 psi and v 100 psi are commonly used with mechanically attached cool white roofing membranes and a simple slip sheet.

This resistance to moisture combined with excellent compressive strength and dimensional stability makes foamular roof insulation reusable. Insulation that holds the upper hand on heat and cold made to reduce the harm of freeze thaw cycles styrofoam brand roofmate xps insulation helps maintain a steady temperature in roof membranes reducing damage during and after construction and is reusable in many applications. Xps and the white membrane installed directly to the steel roof deck combine to create a highly sustainable roofing system.
