Quantum ICF is a pressure-moderated, Exterior Insulation and Finish System that includes the installation of Quantum Select over an approved Insulating Concrete Form (ICF) substrate, which is coated with a water-resistive barrier.
- CAN/ULC S716 compliant
- CCMC listed (13103-R)
- Continuous venting at floor lines and horizontal terminations, using pre-manufactured vented boards
- Positive drainage (through a network of vertical and horizontal channels)
- Continuous air/vapour barrier
- Simple interfacing with other pressure equalized
- 2-hour fire rating in accordance with ULC W456
- Economical
- Aesthetic design flexibility
- Continuous Insulation – CI Factor = 0.65 RSI/in (Type 1 EPS) 0.7 RSI/in (Type2 EPS)
Quantum ICF is intended for use on buildings where the Building Code allows the use of fire-tested wall assemblies which include combustible foam plastic insulation.
