One structure had stucco walls painted with a regular off white house paint with no InsuladdŽ.
The other structure had stucco walls using the same paint with InsuladdŽ added to it as directed by the manufacturer.
Wall insulation of the structures was verified to be of the same type and rating.
Summary:
The use of InsuladdŽ in the paint applied to the exterior wall of the apartment studied in the test showed a marked drop in the measured heat influx into the structure.
The resulting difference in the interior wall surface temperatures registered between the InsuladdŽ painted wall compared to the standard painted wall was 7 deg. F in this test.
This temperature difference is a substantial increase in the energy efficiency of the stucco structure painted with InsuladdŽ.
