Superior Walls foundations feature a continuous layer of insulation bonded directly to the concrete, resulting in high energy efficiency to help you reduce energy costs.  Our wall design provides room to easily increase the amount of insulation without any need to install additional framing. New Homes built with the Superior Walls precast concrete foundation systems benefit from lasting increased building efficiencies that are superior in every way.

Our foundations feature a continuous layer of insulation bonded directly to the concrete, resulting in a tight thermal envelope to increase comfort and to reduce energy costs. We feature R-21.3 (US Markets) and R-23 (Canadian Markets) insulation in the Xi Plus wall system and R-12.5 insulation in the Xi wall system, while both systems provide room for additional insulation if desired.

Building with Superior Walls insulated precast concrete wall panels provides your home with an excellent thermal envelope, minimizing the potential for energy loss. The combination of built-in insulation and high strength concrete is a great foundation for energy conservation.

Built-in insulation helps lower energy loss through the basement walls. The R-21.3 (US Markets) or R-23 (Canadian Markets) insulation throughout the wall panels (Xi Plus wall system) minimizes thermal transfer. The pre-studded wall panels include extra cavity space that makes it easy to add additional insulation to maximize R-value up to R-42+.

Since the foundation wall panels are engineered and manufactured with insulated concrete studs, Superior Walls reduces the amount of materials used to build your new home, including wood and concrete, and reduces the carbon footprint of your new home’s construction process!

Superior Walls 5000 psi concrete, with a lower water-to-cement ratio, ensures durability and helps prevent the transfer of moisture through the wall. A dry basement will improve air quality by minimizing the possibility of mold that can be found in traditional basements.

Our efficient, factory controlled production process ensures that your Superior Walls foundation arrives at your home site ready to install, producing virtually no on-site waste, with the least environmental site impact of any foundation system!
