<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Putting up a structure, regardless of size, costs a fortune. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So, rarely will any property owner want to add to such a huge amount, the cost of maintenance or fixing damages regularly. Of course, the quality of the materials used for buildings determines their durability and ability to last longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exterior Insulated Finish Systems (EIFS) are unique cladding solutions that help you achieve a solid building exterior. They provide control against some factors that can cause your building exterior to dilapidate rapidly so that you save costs on maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though there are other cladding systems such as siding with stucco and bricks this article will tell you why this cladding system is preferred. In addition, you will have answers to some questions you may likely have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Unique Benefits Of EIFS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#1. Energy Conservation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A major value EIFS provides is energy efficiency and codes. They can reduce air infiltration to a great extent, a feature that standard brick or wood construction doesn’t offer. The result is that the walls can retain heat and conserve energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More so, most EIFS use an insulation board with an R-value of R-4 to R-5.6 per inch as the innermost layer in the wall system and thus contribute to the “R-value” of a building. R-value of a building shows the extent to which the building can resist heat. This means that a building with a high R-value is a testimony to the building materials’ insulating value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#2. Durability<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Compared to stucco, wood, and other siding materials, you may not need to paint your building if you use EIFS. Made with 100% acrylic binder, they are super resistant to fading, chalking, or even yellowing, and therefore last longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EIFS are also resistant to dirt, mold, and mildew, and mold, this helps maintain the buildings’ appearance. Weather rarely affects EIFS, they absorb building movement so that the temperature does not affect the wall and cause it to crack. This is one challenge with concrete, stucco, and brick exteriors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#3. Moisture Control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From research, EIFS is the “best performing cladding” when you talk about thermal and moisture control. This is opposed to sidings like stucco, brick, stucco, and fiber cement. EIFS are strong water-resistant exterior surfaces for buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Water intrusion is rarely the case with EIFS cladding structures, unlike other cladding systems. However, you must ensure that you install them properly. To further strengthen the system in this regard, use quality windows – AAMA certified windows to precisely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, there must be proper flashing and sealing around the windows, roofs, doors, all attachments, and all other exterior wall penetrations. A maintenance routine that will do you a lot of good. You should fix the tiniest damage outrightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#4. Design Flexibility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Even though stucco and stone are visually appealing, EIFS are richer than them. With versatile colors and a wide array of textures, you can have any design or shape you desire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professional applicators find this system beneficial because they can create various unique exterior architectural detailing at a cheaper cost. Other traditional constructions such as arches, Keystones, cornices, etc, aren’t cost-effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>#5. Fire Resistance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

EIFS has passed the major fire resistance tests that are required by the building codes. These tests include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
