The P2000 Insulation System is a new super-efficient thermal insulation product that delivers outstanding insulation protection. It's tested! It's approved! And it works!
The P2000 Insulation System can be used for many applications:
- New construction and renovation.
- Residential and commercial buildings.
- Interior and exterior.
- Wood frame, steel, and concrete structures.
- Most any insulating project.
- Ceilings
- Excellent for vaulted ceilings.
- Easy application for new construction - insulation and vapour barrier in one.
- Easy retro-fit - apply over existing ceiling - strap (optional) - sheetrock.
- Floors
- Under concrete radiant heat slabs and other radiant floor systems.
- Concrete basement floors (below or as part of sub-floor).
- Under crawl spaces.
- Ideal for mini/mobile home floors.
- Walls
- Achieve R20+ performance in a 2" x 4" wall.
- Outside - apply under siding, brick, stucco, steel, etc.
- Inside - apply over studs or existing walls (Eg. Lathe & Plaster) without messy tear-out.
- Basement walls - applied directly to concrete.
- Attics
- Apply under trusses or on underside of rafters.
- A quick efficient way to insulate.
- Roofs
- Apply above or below roof framing (wood or steel) - with steel, aluminum, even asphalt shingles.
- Plumbing & Ductwork
- Covering ductwork (to avoid formation of condensation).
- Insulate water heaters, pipes under floors, pump houses, etc.
- Other Applications
- Cold storage - cold rooms, walk-in freezers.
- Agricultural & industrial buildings - white ceilings with P2000 applying sheathing, white finish, vapour barrier & insulation in one application.
- Removable insulation panels / to block off rooms, insulate windows.
How it Works
Insulation & Heat Loss
- Insulation effectively reduces the rate of heat loss (winter) and heat gain (summer).
- It is commonly believed a well insulated wall must be a thick wall
- P2000 defies conventional thinking by delivering high performance insulation with a thin board product.
3 Types of Heat - 3 Types of Heat Loss/Gain
- Conduction - transfer of heat through solids (heat on a warm floor).
- Convection - transfer of heat through the air (hot air from a heat vent).
- Radiation - transfer of energy (not heat) that becomes heat once absorbed by objects - (sunlight is radiant energy).
Radiant Heat
- Radiant heat energy accounts for:
- 50 - 75% of building heat loss in the winter heating season.
- up to 93% of heat gain in the summer (resulting in higher air conditioning costs).
But most insulations have little/no effect on radiant heat.

Insulating Radiant Heat
Radiant energy can be controlled using radiant "blockers" - special materials that reflect radiant energy.
The P2000 Insulation System reflects up to 97% of radiant heat energy.
This means P2000 Insulation blocks the transfer of radiant heat energy - which significantly:.
- Reduces heat loss (winter)
- and reduces heat gain (summer).
What else makes The P2000 Insulation System so efficient
-
P2000's special EPS foam core (similar to a foam cup) provides another level of insulation protection. Most of the energy that is not blocked by reflective laminates is absorbed by the foam core.
-
P2000 has a seaming system - providing double seal protection against wind, cold, and moisture.
-
P2000 is an insulator and vapour barrier in one.
-
P2000's foam core is virtually waterproof.
-
P2000 installs accross walls - thus eliminating thermal bridging through wood / steel framing.
-
P2000 does not sag, settle, rot, gas-off, or absorb moisture (which can reduce insulation performance) in other insulation products.
