If you are looking for a durable, energy-efficient, and attractive exterior cladding system for your commercial building, you should consider Ocala Commercial EIFS. EIFS stands for Exterior Insulation and Finish System, and it is a type of wall cladding that provides exterior walls with an insulated, water-resistant, finished surface in an integrated composite material system.
EIFS is also known as synthetic stucco because it looks similar to traditional stucco, but it has many advantages over it. EIFS consists of six layers: a water-resistive barrier, a drainage plane, an insulation board, a glass-fiber reinforcing mesh, a water-resistant base coat, and a finish coat. These layers make EIFS more flexible, lightweight, and resistant to cracking than conventional stucco.
One of the main benefits of EIFS is its energy efficiency. The insulation board provides thermal insulation for the exterior walls, reducing heat loss or gain and lowering energy costs. The finish coat also reflects solar radiation and prevents overheating. According to studies by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), EIFS can save up to 30% on energy costs compared to other wall systems.
EIFS can keep its shape and color for a long time due to its durability. EIFS can survive wind, rain, hail, snow, and temperature shifts without injury. The water-resistive barrier and the drainage plane prevent water from infiltrating the wall system and causing damage or mold growth. The glass-fiber reinforcing mesh and the base coat provide strength and impact resistance for the wall system.
EIFS can also make your building look more attractive by providing various textures and colors to match your design preferences and enhance your building’s appearance. EIFS can also replicate the look of other materials such as brick, stone, or wood, giving you more alternatives for your exterior cladding. EIFS can also be formed into different shapes and patterns to create architectural details and accents.
