Insulation

Types of building insulation

As the Earth's population grows and natural resources dwindle, we must save on the ever-increasing availability of energy resources. One way to save on the consumption of all energies that are used for various purposes, including heating and cooling, is to use building insulation. In addition to saving natural resources, the use of building insulation also reduces the cost of daily living.

Fortunately, most people today are well aware of the importance of this issue and the use of building insulation has become more common. Note, however, that insulation, in addition to the above, will also bring you peace and comfort at home. So when building a new building, do not forget to use building insulation.

What is building insulation?

Insulation literally means to prevent the penetration or passage of materials or energy to a specific place. In other words, insulation is a material or process that isolates a place by preventing the entry or passage of energy. For example, if a building is equipped with sound insulation, noises from the street, such as the movement of cars, do not penetrate into the house and people living in the house can relax easily and in a quiet environment. Of course, insulators are not the same type, and depending on what they prevent from passing, they are different, which we will examine in the following, so stay with us until the end of the article.

Classification of building insulation

Building insulation is selected and used according to the needs of the building and the people living in it. In addition, materials that are used as insulation are also divided into the following four categories according to their function.

Audio
Thermal
Moisture
Audio - Thermal

To learn more about each of the insulators and how they work, we will examine each in the following.

 

 

Sound insulation

Soundproofing is very important to keep people comfortable and relaxed in one place. The use of sound insulation ensures that noise pollution in a building does not penetrate outside and does not bother people. Of course, the opposite is also true, and sometimes the use of sound insulation to prevent noise pollution in the outdoor environment causes harassment to the occupants of a building. There are different types of sound insulation, which are selected according to the place where they will be used. Some of the most commonly used sound insulators are:

Composite insulation
Sound insulation of gypsum panels
Sound insulation of acoustic panels
Viscoelastic sound insulation
And ...

Waterproofing

Waterproofing is very important and necessary to have a strong and solid building. Because not using these insulators or making mistakes in choosing them, will lead to the penetration of water or moisture into the building and after a while will cause the walls to return moisture. Moisture inside the building in the long run endangers the strength and durability of the building and causes the building materials to rot. Some of the materials that can be used as waterproofing are:

Construction bitumen
Rolled isogum
Epoxy or nano waterproofing
And ...

Insulation

As you know, over time and without saving people, the natural resources we use as fuel energy are dwindling. Therefore, we must save on their consumption so that we do not face the problem of depletion of natural resources. For this reason, thermal insulation is one of the most important insulations that should be used in every building and place because it prevents the loss of important energies such as gas, electricity, etc. Thermal insulation, like double-glazed windows, prevents heat from escaping inside the house and reduces gas consumption in winter by keeping the house warm.

 

 

Sound insulation - thermal

Sound and thermal insulation are among the most widely used insulation in most places, especially in residential buildings. Avoiding high energy consumption and not disturbing the people living in the house are among the reasons that have made it necessary to use these insulators. In some cases, the thermal insulation that is installed during construction, to a moderate extent, can also prevent the passage of abnormal sounds, in other words, they are also considered as sound insulation.

Of course, this can be effective in residential buildings because the available noise is very low and thermal insulation can also act as sound insulation, but in places such as cinemas, conference halls, wedding halls, etc. where the existing noise is very loud You must use separate sound insulation.

Types of sound and heat insulation

As we said, insulation is a material that can isolate an environment and prevent the passage of energy or other materials. Insulators are made of different materials in terms of their application and are placed in special places during construction. Because sound and heat insulation have more applications than other insulators, a great variety can be found in their materials. Some of the materials that are used as sound and heat insulators are:

Mineral wool
fiberglass
Cellulose insulation
Foam spray insulation
Foam board insulation
And ...

Inquiry about the price of building insulation in the constrader

Today, due to the prevalence of using different types of insulation, many experts in this field work and manufacture or sell building insulation. The price of all insulators varies due to differences in their type and structure.

To be able to Buy your desired price at an affordable price and from reputable people, you can go to the market construction site and inquire about the price of all building insulation. In addition to inquiring about the price, you can also contact the manufacturer of that product directly.
