foam for tank placement
Hey guys I have looked all over Lowes and home depot insulation section. I cannot find that piece of foam people said to use under the tank to self-level and dampen vibration.
What do these things look like, is it in a roll? I only found some blue roll but about 5.5" wide, Is this the right stuff? I asked the staff and they have no clue what I am refering to. Thanks! |

If you are talking about the styrofoam sheets its normally where ever they keep the wonderboard.. Close to the wood section...

Ask them for foam sheets that you place under vinyle siding.

It is called rigid insulation

Is it stylofoam or is it more like a smooth packing foam? Usually how wide are the sheets?

it's both--both are rigid insulation, just different thicknesses. I forget what brand HD carries but it is white with blue writing on it. It will have an R rating on it as well. At my HD, it is kept near the rolled insulation and roofing tar, roof fans.

Is this primarily for glass tanks? What thickness would one use?

Hey I got it, it's White stylofoam board called R-tech, is 3/4" ok to use because Lowes have a thinner one 1/2" of the same stuff
