Building materials and insulation materials in buildings

The right insulation contributes to a pleasant indoor climate in a house

Choosing the right construction and insulation in buildings saves heating costs in winter and in summer to prevent a too high temperature in the living quarters.

Who insulation made from natural materials chosen, is already on the right track. Insulating materials made of plastic foam are one in the very Energy Efficiency production and the others are the precursors to some poisonous. During a fire toxic gases also. The disadvantage is the low thermal summer. Polystyrene foam, for example, takes only a little insulation and styrofoam in the summer is the heat penetrate almost unabated. Mineral wool and glass wool, are very energy intensive to produce. Is mineral once soaked, it must be replaced.

In any case, natural insulation in terms of energy production and also in its much better insulation or artificial mineral insulation is preferable. These materials also provide a better protection against the summer heat than mineral or synthetic insulation. A disposal of the natural material is also easy. The plastic foam insulation on the other hand, are problematic in waste disposal.

Cellulose Insulation
The cellulose insulation is made from old newspapers. These are the daily disintegrated. An addition of Borsalzen causes the material schimmelhemmend and in case of fire is even glimmhemmend. The fire resistance exceeds even non-flammable insulation. This insulating material is placed in the wall, floor and roof furnaces. Due to its structure, a gap-free insulation. This insulation is in addition to its insulation even sound insulation. Although they are air-tight and add, it is open to diffusion. The cellulose insulation is required in the manufacture of the least energy.

Korkdämmplatten
Korkdämmplatten are made from ground Korkrinde produced. This is the mill superheated steam. The Korkteilchen stretch and released by the resin bonding the Korkteilchen to a block. The plates are then cut. The insulation is good, as is the protection against summer heat. The sound insulation is not as good as the cellulose. Korkdämmplatten are mildew resistant.

Wood fiber insulation boards
Waste or residual is the raw material for wood fiber insulation boards. The disintegrated material is water and a small amount of aluminum sulfate added. Due to the acidic aluminum sulfate dissolves the resin from the wood fibers and serves as a binder. Resins are used in environmentally-oriented businesses are not used. Used this wood fiber insulation boards in the interior and insulation plate. In bitumierter form as a sub-panel roof. The insulation is slightly lower than that of cellulose. The sound insulation is good, as is the summer heat protection.

Sheep wool insulation
The sheep's wool insulation will unkaschierten in railways in the rafters and wall boxes attached. The good thermal Green Insulation is already well known for the clothing. Against moth infestation of the insulation must be protected. A healthy house is on toxic pesticides waived. The sheep's wool insulation is glimmhemmend and also provides a good thermal summer.

Recommendation cellulose insulation
For the construction of healthy houses Naturdämmmaterial is preferable. In view of the insulation, noise insulation and the summer heat insulation is cellulose insulation to be preferred. Similarly, in energetic terms in the production and subsequent disposal.
