CODES & COMPLIANCES Falcon Foam is a U.L. classified fire rated foam plastic up to 6" thick. (*flame spread less than 25, smoke development less than 450). *Flame spread and smoke development ratings derived are not intended to reflect hazards under actual fire conditions. Falcon Foam ThermalStar Insulation contains a fire retardant to inhibit accidental ignition but must be considered combustible and may constitute a fire hazard if improperly used or installed. If required it must be separated from an internally occupied area by 1/2" gypsum board or equivalent. See I.C. listing for additional physical properties. Spec this Product	RECOMMENDED USES Falcon Foam insulating sheathing is recommended for the following concealed applications when protected by a 15 minute thermal barrier: Exterior Walls, Interior Walls, Ceilings, Slab on Grades, Basement Walls (Interior/Exterior), Cathedral Ceilings, Exterior Roof Decks, Re-siding Projects, 1 Hour Rated Fire Walls and Cavity Walls.
WARRANTY 20 Year Limited Thermal Warranty In response to valid concerns of building designers regarding thermal efficiency of various construction assemblies and the long-term insulating value of roof insulation, Falcon Foam (a division of Atlas Roofing Corporation) offers a 20-year, limited thermal warranty. The Falcon Foam EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) Limited Thermal Warranty places Falcon Foam EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) products above all others and supports the building owner, designer and contractor by backing up thermal performance. This warranty is available to the building owner at the time the building is completed and is transferable to any subsequent owner for the duration of the 20-year period. Falcon Foam Warranty	INSTALLATION Use code accepted shear or corner bracing, such as 1"x 4"tie-in or steel strapping. Insulating sheathing should be placed with the longest edge in a vertical position with edges on stud centers. Stud wall spacing of 16"o.c.does not require horizontal support; however, 24" o.c.stud spacing should have a horizontal 2"x 4"at mid-height to support the sheathing. Nailing should be done with 3/8"diameter head galvanized roofing nails long enough to penetrate the wood stud at least 3/4". Sixteen gauge wire staples having a crown minimum of 3/4"wide and legs long enough to penetrate the framing at least 1/2"may also be used. Staple crowns should be parallel with the longest edge of the sheathing. Do not allow the nail head or staple crown to penetrate the sheathing surface. Fasteners should be placed no closer than 3/8"to the perimeter edges of sheathing, spaced 12"o.c.around the perimeters (including top plate and sole plate)and spaced 12"o.c.in the field of the board. When nailing siding materials over sheathing, care should be taken to avoid crushing the sheathing.   Complete Instructions
