<p>I think the product that Norbert is suggesting is
actually called Drain<b>board</b> and you may have some
difficulty sourcing it. When I tried to get some last
summer, I was told that I needed to order a whole
truckload. Things may have changed since then, but an
alternative is Roxul Comfortboard, which has very
similar characteristics and is much more readily
available in the retail market. If you choose, you can
also extend the Comfortboard up the wall, in place of
the EPS, since that's what it's primarily designed for.<br>
</p>
<p>Depending on how important it is to you to keep the
wall dry, you may also want to apply waterproofing to
the wall and footing, behind the Comfortboard. I used a
membrane from Resisto, but there are other good options
available. Note that you will need to protect the
exposed portion of the Comfortboard.</p>
<p>I should also note that, while the Drain/Comfortboard
has many desirable characteristics, it is much more
expensive than EPS.<span class="HOEnZb"><font

Maybe replace the foam on the bermed portions
with Roxul Drainclad? It's a semi-rigid mineral
wool insulating board designed to direct water
down to a drainage tile..............N<br>
