External Wall Insulation System BAUMIT

Baumit EPS External Thermal Insulation Composite System A summary of the advantages: - Heat insulation and facade in one - The heat insulation is on the outside, increasing the living space inside - No heat bridges - Individual, diverse range of facades - System with European Technical Licence (ETAG 004) - Tuned heat insulation (Thickness as required) - Economical, durable system Undoubtedly, a solid wall insulation system on external walls is the most efficient way of insulating a wall. Also, its thermal performance seems much higher when compared with cavity wall insulation. Solid walls let through up to twice as much heat as cavity walls so insulating them could cut heating costs down considerably. The heat loss is generally reflected as a U-Value measure and in case of external solid wall insulation it would normally bring about a 75% minimum decrease in heat loss through the walls depending on thickness and type of insulation materials. Other advantages of external wall insulation worth noting are the following facts: · It improves weather proofing and sound resistance. · It fills the cracks and gaps in the brickwork, which will reduce draughts. · It increases the life of your walls by protecting the brickwork. · It reduces condensation on internal walls and can help prevent damp, which in turn has health benefits. All this makes external wall insulation the best and cost-effective solution and, therefore, an investment well worth committing to.
