Introducing Firth’s latest innovations to the RibRaft HotEdge® range of foundation solutions: HotEdge Extra® and HotEdge Base®.

Complimenting the current HotEdge system, used for brick veneer clad homes, HotEdge Extra is an integrated solution specifically developed for non-brick veneer cladding systems on RibRaft® (pod) or RibRaft X-Pod® foundations.

HotEdge Base® in conjunction with any other RibRaft product, provides under slab perimeter insulation to achieve even higher thermal performance by helping to close a buildings thermal envelope and reduce heat loss.

These fully integrated thermal solutions are designed and tested specifically with Firth foundation systems to assist in attaining Homestar™ points. Our R-values have been proved via 3D thermally modelling to help you achieve compliance with the H1, (5th Edition) updates.

Features

Unique features of our systems are:

  • Durability: uses superior materials (XPS) with rigorous manufacturing processes
    • The high durability of the system means less site waste through handing damage.
    • The XPS boards are more resistant to moisture (compared to EPS), maintaining R-values.
  • Cost: Installing HotEdge systems is a cost-effective way of help to achieving H1 compliance.
    • Alternative to increasing wall thickness and insulation levels elsewhere in the design
    • The pre-plastered surface helps reduce fi­nishing time.
  • Easy installation: fits easily inside form work and uses Tornado screws fixings to securely integrate HotEdge and HotEdge Extra to the concrete slab
    • Fully compatible with all Firth’s RibRaft systems including RibRaft pods and X-Pod.
  • Quality: RibRaft HotEdge and HotEdge Extra system R-values have been proven through 3D thermally modelling.
    • Combine with HotEdge Base to achieve desired R-value.
