On this episode of Bild Show Build, Steve and Jake talk about insulation, and like everything from a design standpoint, continuity is vital (one of Steve's favorite words). From air barriers to water management, continuity is critical. In terms of insulation, it's number four on his control layers list. While on the bottom of the list, it's still essential to the house. Many talk about thickness and R-value, but in reality, we're trying to provide continuous insulation. If it starts underneath the basement and comes up, it needs to stay persistent. Jake will talk about how they're making it happen on this project, starting with concrete. Well, even before the concrete is poured.
