Hunter Xci:Exterior ContinuousInsulationEnergy Efficiency andNFPA 285 ComplianceMade Easy
Build with tomorrow’s continuous insulation todayAs the first start-up company to enter the polyiso industry since 1975, HunterPanels has a singularly dedicated mission: to distinguish ourselves as an aggressiveentrepreneurial manufacturer, and also as a proactive leader in the marketingof innovative continuous insulation polyiso products. We are a self-containedmanufacturer with a companywide, laser-like focus on our mission.Hunter Panels has assembled an unparalleled team of leading industry professionalswho know polyiso inside and out and have a proven passion for being technicallyproficient and customer driven in everything we do as a company. Quality isn’t just agoal at Hunter Panels — it’s in our corporate DNA.As the recognized industry leader and pioneer in polyiso roof insulation panels for over15 years, we take great pride in introducing you to Hunter Xci, our new product linefor commercial wall applications. Hunter Xci products have been intuitively designedfor exclusive use in commercial wall applications to provide continuous insulation (ci)within almost any commercial building envelope.What is ci?The U.S. Department of Energy’s Building Energy Codeprogram defines continuous insulation (ci) as “insulationthat runs continuously over structural members and is freeof significant thermal bridging*.” Ci can be installed oninterior and exterior wall structures or as an integral partof any opaque surface of the overall building envelope. Itshould be noted that ci options that include foam plasticscarry additional code compliance requirements and mustcomply with Chapter 26 of the IBC and NFPA 285-testedassembly requirements.ASHRAE 90.1 2010 Standard includes significant andincreased requirements for nonresidential wall insulation.These prescriptive minimum values are increasingacross all climate zones to include “continuous exteriorinsulation”. Hunter Xci Polyiso is the proven choice ofdesign professionals for NFPA 285 code compliance andall of your ci needs.* Other than fasteners and service openings.Hunter XciWhy is “ci” important?BOMA estimates that the commercial real estate industryspends approximately 24 billion annually on energy.Furthermore, they state that energy is the single largestcontrollable operating expense for office buildings. In total,residential and commercial buildings comprise 39% ofoverall US energy use by sector. These figures illustratewhy continuous insulation is important. Thermal bridgingcan reduce effective R-values within walls by 30%–60%or more. The ci component of a wall assembly is essentialin minimizing the effects of thermal bridging and creatingwall systems where the actual thermal performance moreclosely resembles what has been specified.ASHRAE Standards & Guidelinesare designed to provide minimumrequirements for energy efficient buildings(excluding low-rise structures).Hunter Xci Polyiso—the best choice for “ci” Four distinct NFPA-compliant products with over80 total wall assembly combinations More NFPA-compliant assemblies than othermanufacturers Easy-to-use, three-step Wall Assembly Guide appavailable for iPad, Smartphone and online use Legendary “Whatever It Takes” customer service We actually answer our telephones!

Cuts with aknife or saw.The International Non-profit NFPAThe mission of the international non-profit National FireProtection Association (NFPA), established in 1896, is toreduce the worldwide burden of fire and other hazards on thequality of life by providing and advocating consensus codesand standards, research, training, and education.NFPA 285 is a multi-story wall assembly pass/fail fire test required by code forcommercial buildings Type I, II, III and IV construction. The assemblies includeall products from interior finish to exterior cladding.The NFPA 285 test is an assembly test of components, not a productapproval test. Hunter Panels has ongoing NFPA 285 testing. Please consultour free Wall Assembly Compliance app for iPads and Smartphones and/orour Hunter Xci website for the most current listings of approved assemblies.Check out the Hunter Xci Wall Assembly app at www.hunterxci.com or in theiTunes store.Effective, efficient compliance choicesHunter Panels has performed extensive testing with ourHunter Xci products in order to provide you with over80 NFPA-approved wall assemblies to choose from.A current listing of these assemblies can be found on ourwebsite, www.hunterxci.com, and on our NFPA 285 Xciapp. We are constantly updating our testing so pleasecheck back often for updates. Unlike the competition,we have researched, designed and tested over 80different assemblies in order to provide architects withunsurpassed flexibility in their design selection.Hunter Xci Ply – Wall Assembly GuideHunterXciPlyIIIPer Chapter 26 of the International Building Code, the wall assembly shall be testedin accordance with and comply with the acceptance criteria of NFPA 285.
