Is kingspan Kooltherm good?
Is it a good product for you? Kingspan Kooltherm has unmatchable performance, high tolerance and very durable phenolic insulants designed especially for commercial insulation and as well as residential insulation.
Is kingspan a Kooltherm PIR?
Thermal conductivity 0.022 W/m.K. Kingspan Thermaroof TR27 is a PIR insulation board made from highly effective rigid PIR core faced with coated glass tissue on both sides added during manufacturing.
What is Kooltherm made from?
The Kingspan Kooltherm range comprises the thinnest commonly used insulation products for any specific U-value. With a fibre-free rigid thermoset phenolic core, and a thermal conductivity of 0.018 – 0.023 W/m·K, these are the most thermally efficient insulation products commonly used.
Is Kingspan Kooltherm fire resistant?
Assemblies featuring Kingspan thermoset insulation products (including Kingspan Kooltherm®, Kingspan Therma®, Kingspan TEK® and Kingspan Kooltherm Cavity Closer) perform very well in fire resistance tests and can outperform equivalent constructions featuring non-combustible synthetic mineral fibre insulation.
Is PIR better than polystyrene?
Comparing the thermal value of cavity insulation and loft insulation boards: in comparison to other insulation materials like mineral wool or the widely used Polystyrene foam rigid foam PIR term insulation boards provide a much more effective insulation value.
How long does PIR insulation last?
Insulation materials tend to be extremely robust. You can expect flat roof insulation to last anywhere between 25 and 40 years.
Can insulation boards get wet?
Fiberglass insulation – Fiberglass insulation is waterproof, however, this doesn’t mean it’s designed to get excessively wet when in use. When fiberglass insulation gets wet, the water displaces the air gaps that are present between the fine glass fibers which greatly reduces its ability to insulate the property.
