    Thermo-Pro® Thermo-Flash


    Draft Statement

    INTRODUCTION

    Cold Thermal Bridging in External Wall Insulation (EWI)

    Enviroform Solutions Ltd. have developed a number of unique products using Aerogel thermal conductivity insulation combined with various materials, to tackle the issue of cold thermal bridging and weathering at key junctions when installing External Wall Insulation.

    The Key Junctions in question addressed are:

    • 1 Windows & Door: Reveals & Sills
    • 2 Soil Pipes & Gate Posts / Fences
    • 3 Eaves & Gutter: where little or no overhanging soffit exists
    • 4 Lead Flashing Details: Bay windows to walls – Single storey beside two storey; EWI above pitched roof
    • 5 Below DPMC Level: above ground level

    Failure to identify and adequately deal with these cold thermal bridging elements can lead to

    • A Increased heat loss from a dwelling compared with what was assumed determined during energy modelling.
    • The Risk of surface condensation or mould from lowered internal Surface temperature at or near the Thermal Bridge Junction.
    • C Risk of mould growth from spores in surface condensation at or near the Thermal Bridge Junction.

    By introducing the Thermo-Pro® Soil Pipe insulated profile the linear thermal transmittance is reduced by over 70% and the internal surface temperature is increased by 2.2oC significantly reducing the risk of surface condensation reducing the risk of mould and creating an unhealthy indoor environment.


    GBE Features & Benefits Schedule

    Thermo-Pro Features: Thermo-Pro Benefits:
    Purpose made solutions Made for retrofit EWI (not designed for new build EWI)
    Solves the problem of existing external attachments No need to ignore them or stop insulation short any more
    Comprehensive set of solutions Enables a complete competent EWIS
    Readymade set of complimentary parts Faster, simpler installations
    Thermo-Pro Profiles can be fitted by details specialist ahead of the EWI main insulation works Simplifies and speeds up the job of the primary EWIS specialist sub-contractor.
    Readymade parts fit and accommodate EWI Compatible with BBA Certified EWI Systems on market
    Lightweight and simple installation Thermo-Pro Profiles can be fitted without scaffolding.
    ??? Reduced disruption to access. What does that mean?
    Robust profiles Reduce risk of damage to EWI insulation.
    Superior Weatherproofed solution Superior and simple compared to made-up on site solutions
    Pre-finished solution Painting not dictated by weather conditions on site
    Lead, plastic or powder coated aluminium Long life durable materials and finishes
    Profiles have built-in thermal break insulation No thermal breaks bridges in EWI.
    Increased Internal Surface Temperature Reduces risk of internal surface condensation
    Warm and dry internal surfaces Avoids risk of damp activating spores generating mould
    Mould-free surfaces Avoids risk of asthma and other respiratory illnesses
    Mould-free surfaces Keeps accommodation fit for purpose and occupied

    4 Thermo-Pro® Thermo-Flash

    Description

    Thermo-Flash is a very simple but also very effective solution that has been developed to prevent cold bridging in key areas in existing properties.

    This solution comprises of 10mm high performance Spaceloft Aerogel insulation wrapped in a Vapour Control Layer (VCL) with aluminium or Lead flashing.

    Key areas of use:

    • Bay Window roof to EWI above

    • Lead flashing – Roof Junctions Connecting wall and to EWI above

    • Parapet roofs gutters to parapet walls with EWI

    KEY ADVANTAGES:

    • Reduction of thermal bridging

    • Improved weatherproofing

    • Aesthetically pleasing

    • Easy to install

    • Cost effective

    Draft Statement

    INTRODUCTION

    Cold Thermal Bridging in External Wall Insulation (EWI)

    Enviroform Solutions Ltd. have developed a number of unique products using Aerogel thermal conductivity insulation combined with various materials, to tackle the issue of cold thermal bridging and weathering at key junctions when installing External Wall Insulation.

    The Key Junctions in question addressed are:

    • 1 Windows & Door: Reveals & Sills
    • 2 Soil Pipes & Gate Posts / Fences
    • 3 Eaves & Gutter: where little or no overhanging soffit exists
    • 4 Lead Flashing Details: Bay windows to walls – Single storey beside two storey; EWI above pitched roof
    • 5 Below DPMC Level: above ground level

    Failure to identify and adequately deal with these cold thermal bridging elements can lead to

    • A Increased heat loss from a dwelling compared with what was assumed determined during energy modelling.
    • The Risk of surface condensation or mould from lowered internal Surface temperature at or near the Thermal Bridge Junction.
    • C Risk of mould growth from spores in surface condensation at or near the Thermal Bridge Junction.

    By introducing the Thermo-Pro® Soil Pipe insulated profile the linear thermal transmittance is reduced by over 70% and the internal surface temperature is increased by 2.2oC significantly reducing the risk of surface condensation reducing the risk of mould and creating an unhealthy indoor environment.


    GBE Features & Benefits Schedule

    Thermo-Pro Features: Thermo-Pro Benefits:
    Purpose made solutions Made for retrofit EWI (not designed for new build EWI)
    Solves the problem of existing external attachments No need to ignore them or stop insulation short any more
    Comprehensive set of solutions Enables a complete competent EWIS
    Readymade set of complimentary parts Faster, simpler installations
    Thermo-Pro Profiles can be fitted by details specialist ahead of the EWI main insulation works Simplifies and speeds up the job of the primary EWIS specialist sub-contractor.
    Readymade parts fit and accommodate EWI Compatible with BBA Certified EWI Systems on market
    Lightweight and simple installation Thermo-Pro Profiles can be fitted without scaffolding.
    ??? Reduced disruption to access. What does that mean?
    Robust profiles Reduce risk of damage to EWI insulation.
    Superior Weatherproofed solution Superior and simple compared to made-up on site solutions
    Pre-finished solution Painting not dictated by weather conditions on site
    Lead, plastic or powder coated aluminium Long life durable materials and finishes
    Profiles have built-in thermal break insulation No thermal breaks bridges in EWI.
    Increased Internal Surface Temperature Reduces risk of internal surface condensation
    Warm and dry internal surfaces Avoids risk of damp activating spores generating mould
    Mould-free surfaces Avoids risk of asthma and other respiratory illnesses
    Mould-free surfaces Keeps accommodation fit for purpose and occupied
