External wall insulation, home insulation, external thermal insulation composite system ETICS, polystyrene and mineral wool insulation

External wall insulation is an important and effective stage of capital construction, renovation and improvement of houses.

The reason for external wall insulation is mainly energy costs savings. External wall insulation is an optimal thermal guard that will save you costs on heating.

Construction division of our company provides both family homes and apartments insulation (panel and brick). In thermal insulation of houses we use high-quality materials proven by long-standing practice which are supplied on customer’s request according to designer’s project.

In external wall insulation we use certified thermal insulation system of company Terranova ETICS (external thermal insulation composite system). As insulation materials we offer polystyrene and mineral wool. Nowadays polystyrene insulation with application of polystyrene boards is the most popular way of thermal insulation of houses.

One of the main tasks when selecting external wall insulation system is ensuring fire safety of a house. External wall insulation increases the sound insulation of buildings.

Advantages of polystyrene thermal insulation system:

•    high solidity and resistance to ageing
•    easy application
•    low water absorption
•    reasonable price
•    minimum weight
•    safety for health

The main advantage of mineral wool as thermal insulation material is its lightness and breathability. Mineral wool releases out moisture and contradicts the generation of mold. It is lightness of material that decreases the load bearing capacity of house.

Advantages of mineral wool applying in thermal insulation system:

•    total covering of all surfaces
•    high water vapor permeability
•    resistance to temperature drop on perimeter walls inside house, and thus prevention of mold
•    fireproof insulation material
•    increases life of house
•    high energy savings on heating

With highly effective thermal insulation system and quality work of our craftsmen you will get a low-energy house without extra costs: investment in thermal insulation returns in 2 years.

When choosing insulation system you should also take into account conditions of house maintenance: annual and daily fluctuations in temperature, precipitation, wind loading. When insulation is carried out without regard to these factors, then it inevitably leads to problems related to poor thermal insulation, condensation generation, and early wear of thermal insulation materials.
