To prevent voids under neath the foam which might cause it to deflect we take extra care to level the compacted gravel.

Super insulated slab foundation.

Slab on grade floors tend to have fewer air leaks than wood frame floors although plumbing penetrations must be sealed. This material is a dimpled 24 mil high density polyethylene that provides wall and under slab moisture control for all types of foundations and isolates living spaces from floors that otherwise can become damp. If the foundation wall is mostly below grade a well can be installed. Super insulated slab foundations by at least 2 feet.
