Comment on Foam sheathing by ric arias

I am building a home in New York, just north of NJ state line. I’m building an energy star rated home and have hired a rater to consult during the building phase. He has suggested that we use two inches of rigid insulation (foam) on the exterior of the house for the same reasons you cite (thermal bridging). We’ll see how it goes. Apparently this is common practice in Europe (where he says they put stucco over the rigid insulation).
I do worry about how this material is attached to the frame of the house. I look forward to coming back to this site to see more comments.

Thanks for visiting and thanks for the link, and yes come back with your experience, it’s invaluable, as we only have heard sales speech so far.

I will continue to put more info on this website as we gather it.

We are in the process of building and the builder is using foam sheathing. Being much further north than you (Maryland) I am hopeful the sheathing will help with our heating bill. I found this on HGTV Pro and I will check back in the winter and post our experience with our new home.
