ThermalDry Basement Wall Systems

Preparation for Finished Basement
ThermalDry® Basement Wall System is part of a likely pair of products for folks in Minnesota or northern Iowa who are finishing their basements. The basement wall systems, a plastic vapor barrier with bubbles on one side that act as thermal breaks and spacers to allow for drainage, stops water vapor from getting into your basement through the walls and drains water from any wall leak down behind it to the perimeter basement waterproofing drainage system (WaterGuard®). Built up water creates an environment where mold and odors can develop and grow.

An Energy Saving Solution
More than that, because of its reflective foil face, the ThermalDry® Basement Wall System reflects more than 90% of the indoor heat back into the basement, providing energy savings. Heat moves from hot to cold, and your basement walls are always cold because the earth is cold. Normally, the thermal mass of your basement walls perpetually soaks up heat from your home, but with the ThermalDry® Basement Wall System, this process dramatically slows down, saving energy. This makes the ThermalDry® Basement Wall System the preferred option for your basement walls if you are going to finish your basement in the future.
