Alumaflex Thermal insulation is specified to control three components of heat transmittance through the building fabric:
Conduction of heat through building fabric
Convection via air movement
Radiant transmission
Benefits
Effective in both Summer and Winter
Alumaflex Insulation retains heat during winter and reflects heat in summer preventing over-heating warm spaces
Flexible, durable and free from irritants
Quick and easy to install
Acts as an effective vapour barrier
Can be used in conjunction with other forms of insulation
Alumaflex : design benefits
The insulation material and effect on floors and external wall thickness are minimal
Alumaflex Insulation provides the opportunity to incorporate the insulation into other aspects of building function; for example, creating thermal benefits in limited spaces eg. the use of a roof void as habitable space, Alumaflex is perfect as loft conversion insulation
Criteria for specifying Alumaflex thermal insulation
Performance in use and longevity – full product certification
Alumaflex provides the reassurance that on-site work will meet the required thermal design standards
Alumaflex insulation will have minimal impact on building design and capital cost
