Extruded Polystyrene Insulation

The XPS insulation used in Snowman Coolers and Freezers is a closed cell structure with a high resistance to water. Composed of hydrophobic polystyrene polymers, XPS insulation exceeds R-Values required by the new Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 and the recent changes to the federal regulations, which were enacted January of 2009. The chart below illustrates a 5-year R-Value retention comparison, between XPS insulation and spray foam polyurethane insulation.

It is important, both economically and environmentally, that you choose a manufacturer that provides the best insulating products available. As you compare, you will find the XPS insulation, both initially and over time, to be the best choice for all your walk-in needs.
