We live in such climatic latitudes, when most of the year on the street the temperature is low, such phenomena as snow, rain, increased humidity are frequent. Therefore, measures are used to warm buildings in order to maintain an acceptable microclimate inside.
Today, products in the insulation segment are presented in the assortment. How to choose the most optimal option that will provide the desired protection against all unpleasant weather phenomena? To do this, you should get acquainted with existing types of insulation and their properties.
What materials are used for insulation?
The improvement of materials in this segment is due to the technological achievements of modern industry. If, more recently, the most common means of insulation of houses was straw, now the market today will delight you with a more practical and reliable offer.
Of modern materials, the following types deserve special attention:
• glass wool
• Basalt (stone) wool slabs
• Foam polystyrene (polystyrene)
Characteristics of modern thermal insulation materials
Of course, the predominant type of categories presented is basalt slabs. Today, PAROC insulation is available on sale, which is practical and easy to use, while it allows you to get high thermal insulation rates.
Compared to it, glass wool and foam lose. So, for example, unlike glass wool, Paroc insulation does not have hydrophilic properties, which prevents the shrinkage of the material. Glass wool also absorbs moisture well and, in the presence of cracks, loses its heat -saving qualities.
The foam is exposed to rodents, it is short -lived and requires increased caution, due to its fragility.
At the same time, modern types of stone insulation materials, for example, ISOROC insulation, hydrophobic, are resistant to mechanical damage, loads, have fire -fighting properties. This favorably selects this class of products against the background of ordinary materials used for insulation.
Application of materials of this class
The distribution of materials of this type in the construction sphere, the bright representative of which is, for example, Baswool insulation, quite wide.
This is justified not only by the properties of products, but also by its quality. It is made under strict control and for demanding international standards, which ensures the desired durability, reliability, practicality and high thermal insulation properties.
In addition, the material is recommended for the decoration of residential buildings, since it has environmental friendliness and health safety.
