What is EIFS?

EIFS, or Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems, is a lightweight, non-load-bearing cladding system that includes continuous insulation, air and water-resistive barriers, and a decorative, protective finish. Senergy EIFS offers a seamless exterior solution ideal for both new construction and retrofit projects.

Engineered for modern construction, each layer in the EIFS system plays a critical role in delivering thermal performance, design flexibility, and building code compliance. Understanding the critical layers of an EIFS system is essential for achieving performance, aesthetics, and sustainability goals. Here’s a breakdown of the typical components of an EIFS system:

  1. Air and Water-Resistive Barrier (AWRB) - Senergy’s fluid-applied air and water-resistive barrier helps protect the wall assembly from air infiltration and moisture intrusion. This critical layer improves energy efficiency and reduces the risk of mold and mildew within the wall cavity.
  2. Continuous Insulation (CI) - Expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam insulation board provides continuous insulation across the exterior wall surface. By eliminating thermal bridging, this layer enhances energy efficiency and helps meet or exceed energy code requirements. 
  3. Reinforcing Mesh with Base Coat - A layer of alkali-resistant fiberglass mesh is embeded in base coat and applied over the insulation board. This layer adds impact resistance, flexibility, and crack resistance, forming a durable foundation for the finish coat.
  4. Finish Coat - The exterior finish layer offers design versatility with a range of textures and colors. It provides weather resistance, UV protection, and aesthetic appeal, completing the system with a long-lasting, decorative surface. A wide range of looks can be acheived.
