It is better not to lay extruded polystyrene foam on aerated concrete. Take a picture of how the framing joint is made. I suspect it is not covered with vapor barrier...i.e. moisture from the house passes through the foam and rests on the EPS framing with all that entails.

There is mold on the eaves and gutters because of the high humidity in that area. Treat with chlorine.
