Why EPS and not PIR?

EPS is like one third of PIR in €.

But those costs are marginal in the bigger picture. With only 12cm not going for PIR while you have the chance seems just a waste of effort. It's not bad, but you're really limiting the options you have for heating.

Thanks, I will redo my calculations. PIR 0,026 W/mK. EPS 0,035 W/mK. There is a nice difference.

What costs money is mounting it onto your house. It's a really bad idea in terms of fire safety, EPS.
