LP NovaCore Thermal Insulated Sheathing
LP NovaCore Thermal Insulated Sheathing stands as an innovative product in the building industry, blending advanced technology with durability. Its unique composition combines a robust 7/16-inch OSB panel with a 1/2-inch foam (R3), 1-inch foam (R5) and 1-1/2-inch foam (R7) Owens Corning Foamular NGX XPS Foam board, creating a thermal insulated sheathing.
What sets LP NovaCore sheathing apart is its ability to help maintain a consistent and reliable R-value, even in fluctuating temperatures. Unlike traditional foam insulation, Owens Corning’s XPS foam provides a barrier to bulk water absorption in the LP NovaCore panel, reducing any potential of degradation of long term insulative performance. This cutting-edge feature makes LP NovaCore sheathing particularly advantageous in colder climates, where its R-value actually increases as temperatures drop.
Builders benefit from its versatility too, meeting stringent energy codes in various climate zones. Its adaptability, durability, and superior thermal efficiency help redefine industry standards, making it an innovative and indispensable choice for modern building projects. In addition, with zero ozone depletion potential, specifying and installing LP NovaCore sheathing helps builders achieve LEED, ENERGY STAR, and Green Building Standard ICC 700-2008 certifications.
The product complies with IRC structural requirements, is available in nominal lengths of 8 ́, 9 ́ and 10', and is backed by a 20-year limited warranty.
