Engineered for Vancouver
- R-value (R15) exceeds the requirements for basement/foundation walls in the
Vancouver Building By-law (VBBL) 2024 (Zone 4).
- With the 3⅝″ of rigid EPS you get an R-15 assembly for added performance and
comfort.
- Built-in furring strips (wood) allow drywall or finishes to be mounted
directly—no separate stud framing required.
Benefits for Builders & Owners
- Faster install = lower labour costs: One trade installs the panel and you’re
ready to finish. No separate trades for framing, insulation, vapour barrier.
- Quiet, warm basements: Insulated walls help reduce thermal loss, cold spots and
condensation risk—great for comfort, durability and resale value.
- Code peace of mind: Designed for the local climate and for compliance under the
Vancouver Building By-law.
- Versatility: Ideal for new builds or basement retrofits. Perfect for ceiling
panels.
How It Works
- Mount the HOMEGA® panels directly to the concrete or block wall using appropriate
fasteners.
- Seal joints and terminations to maintain an effective air and vapour control layer.
- Attach your drywall or finish directly to the integrated furring strips.
- Complete electrical as required, burying into foam and finish with no separate stud wall.
- Enjoy a warmer, better-insulated basement and simplified install.
Typical Pricing and Value
At approximately $92 per 4′×8′ panel (32 sq.ft.), the installed cost
per square foot is highly competitive compared to conventional framing + batt methods.
