Thermal Wall Insulation
WARM XPS Therm Wall Insulation
Thermal wall insulation: Enhance energy efficiency, reduce heat loss, and create a cozy environment for your home or building.
- External Wall Insulation
Jacketing is applied on the Shell surrounding the building, that is the external surface of the external wall. Since it completely covers the sides of the building, it is the most ideal insulation method.In jacketing practices, Warm Therm XPS Panels are placed ont the wall surface with soil cement base.
- Internal Wall Insulation
Though the most appropriate method in wall insulation in terms of structure physics is external insulation, in case this is not possible, internal insulation is applied. Warm Therm XPS Panels stick to internal wall sruface with cement or plaster based adhesive mortar.
- Column & Beam Insulation
Thermal bridges, columns and beams where structure materials with different thermal conductivity are connected to one another, intersect or mingle are places where heat transfer is more compared to general structure.
- Cavity Wall Insulation
Warm Therm XPS Insulation Panel can be applied in two ways as open or closed. In open cavity wall application, XPS Insulation Panels should be fixed to the wall surface inside and the open space should be left between the external wall and panels.
In the closed cavity wall application, XPS Insulation Panels stick to the external wall surface and the internal wall is built on the panels without leaving any open space. The vapor transition resistance of the external wall should be low in this application. XPS Insulation Panels don’t collapse, or aren’t piled up or fragmented at wall base, or they don’t cause thermal bridges by forming open spaces.
What is thermal wall insulation and how does it work?
Thermal wall insulation refers to the installation of materials to reduce heat transfer through walls. It works by creating a barrier that inhibits the flow of heat, helping to maintain a more consistent indoor temperature. Insulation materials, such as foam boards or mineral wool, trap air or slow down heat conduction, preventing heat loss or gain through the walls.
What are the benefits of installing thermal wall insulation?
There are several benefits to installing thermal wall insulation. It helps improve energy efficiency by reducing heat loss during colder months and minimizing heat gain during warmer months. This can lead to lower energy consumption and cost savings on heating and cooling bills. Additionally, insulation enhances comfort by creating a more stable indoor temperature, reducing drafts, and minimizing noise transmission from outside.
How is thermal wall insulation installed, and can it be done as a DIY project?
Thermal wall insulation can be installed through various methods, depending on the insulation material chosen. Some common installation techniques include batts or rolls for fiberglass insulation, blown-in for cellulose insulation, spray foam for foam insulation, and rigid boards for foam board insulation.
