Insulation of an apartment building

As you know, the service life of apartment buildings is more than a dozen years. In order to ensure that this period does not end prematurely, it is important to properly operate the house, which includes, first of all, timely revision and repair of communication systems.

As for modern new buildings, they are being built using the latest technologies and have very high thermal and sound insulation characteristics. And this is one of their main advantages. However, even in old buildings, a number of measures can be carried out that can improve these characteristics, such as replacing double–glazed windows and facade insulation.

For insulation, hinged ventilated facades are most often used. In some rare cases, when the material from which the walls of the house are made does not allow the installation of hinged facades, a facade system with a thin plaster layer is used. Unfortunately, this technology has seasonal restrictions on work, as it provides for some "wet processes" that require an ambient temperature of at least +5 degrees. Hinged facades can be installed at any time of the year and are considered more practical by experts, therefore, preference is given to them, if the design features of the house allow.

Considering the insulation of facades with hinged ventilated systems, we will see a three–layer structure - insulation, an air layer and an outer layer that performs decorative and protective functions. The main division of insulation materials is into organic (expanded polystyrene, foam, etc.) and inorganic (types of cotton wool – glass wool, stone wool, etc.). The most important requirements for insulation materials are fire safety, environmental friendliness, and high thermal insulation characteristics. The hinged facades are installed using an aluminum profile, which is attached to the wall of the house on brackets fixed with special facade anchors. The outer layer can be any type – corrugated board, granite, siding, panels, etc.

It is no coincidence that we mentioned glazing above. Most often in old houses, the balcony or loggia has cold-type glazing. To date, it is possible to install warm glazing without changing the appearance of the facade. For this purpose, multi-chamber double-glazed windows are used in combination with the so-called warm aluminum profile.

Comprehensive work on home insulation can give really significant results that will even save energy costs on heating.
