If you can get a copy of a catalog from a company called
TekSupply, HTTP://WWW.TekSupply.com, they sell a product
called TEKFOIL. And, on p-244+ of their catalog #692 is
an example/show-n-tell of various application principles of
this product including the under-concrete use (p-247). I
do not plan on using this _type_ of product under concrete,
but in walls and under roof of a Pre-Eng. metal building.
I was told by the local vendor that the double-bubble is =
to about 8-10" of fiberglass insulation. ->BUT<- this ins.
requires a stand-off space/distance or it is not effective.
So, call around to the various insulation peddlers in your
area (as I did) and someone will steer you on to one that is
familiar with your weather/soil/building-type/etc.. and can
help you with your choices in bubble-foil insulation(s).

Cheers,
Mr. Shadow (Ret.)
