The roof must be insulated without fail, as this structure accounts for up to 30% of total heat loss. In this regard, waterproofing and roof insulation is a process that represents a complex set of measures that should be carried out by companies of the appropriate profile.
Advantages of roof insulation with polyurethane foam
In addition to saving energy, an insulated roof creates reliable protection for the house from the adverse effects of precipitation. High results can be achieved when using the right building materials for its reinforcement, one of which is foamed polyurethane foam. PPU insulation will allow:
obtain additional living space in the attic;
reduce heat loss from inside the house to the maximum – PPU has the lowest thermal conductivity coefficient;
reduce noise levels in rooms – the closed-cell structure of this polymer does not transmit noise;
strengthen structures, extend their service life due to strong adhesion of PPU to the base.
Polyurethane foam is one of the most advanced materials used for these purposes. It is sprayed onto the roof surface in a seamless manner, creating a monolithic layer that can completely prevent the penetration of moisture, dampness, and mold.
PPU is a polymer that, after application to structures, will last more than 30 years and will not lose its thermal insulation properties. It is enough to create a small layer of this material to ensure reliable sealing.
Polyurethane foam is unique because only this material combines exceptionally high parameters of thermal, moisture, and vapor insulation, which can significantly reduce the cost of installation work and subsequently save on energy resources. High results can be achieved only if the PPU used is of high quality and the installation work is performed by professionals.
Insulation with polyurethane foam
For the installation of PPU, there is no need to drill holes in the roof or use additional fasteners. A sufficiently thin layer of PPU (its layer is 1.5-2 times thinner than other insulation materials) does not weigh down the roof, holds firmly on its surface, and adheres tightly to the base due to its high adhesive properties.
The liquid polymer penetrates all pores, gaps, depressions, and cracks during application. It can be used on roofs of any design, regardless of the complexity of their configuration.
To create a durable and high-quality insulation layer, PPU with the highest density is used. It is also important to carefully treat all joints and junctions to create a barrier against moisture penetration.
Specialized equipment is used for foam spraying, as its supply must be carried out under high pressure. The durability of the coating, reliability, and high thermal insulation properties depend on compliance with the technology.
Experienced professionals of the company "Edvans" guarantee the best result, performing work on insulation of flat roofs or pitched roofs quickly and carefully.
