Why is it important to insulate buildings?

One of the most important factors that affect the productivity of buildings is the amount and manner of energy saving buildings

If we want to explain the insulation of a building in general, we call anything that prevents the passage of energy and mass.

Insulations are different materials and each pursues different goals. Some insulations are used as coatings on floors, ceilings and walls of buildings.

Why is it important to insulate buildings?

One of the most important factors that affect the productivity of buildings is the amount and manner of energy saving buildings. One of the factors that have the greatest impact on achieving this goal is the insulation of buildings. Insulation of buildings is not only for energy management but also for other purposes such as reducing the amount of moisture and noise pollution.

(what areas of your home need insulation)

What is the purpose of insulation of buildings?

- Reduce energy consumption

- Keeping homes warm in cold seasons

- Keep the interior of the house cool in hot seasons

- Reduce pollution

- Protect the building from fire

- Increase the durability of the building against all kinds of moisture and corrosion

- Environmentally friendly

- Balancing the amount of moisture in the house by absorbing excess moisture and preventing the growth of pests

Which parts of the house should be insulated?

With the interpretations we have explained, the question arises as to which parts of the house should be insulated? Insulating any part of the building reduces energy consumption in that part, but there are parts that need to be insulated:

Roofs of buildings

One of the most important and main places to insulate a building is the roof of the building. Roof insulation reduces energy loss by 35 to 45%.

Exterior walls

Insulating the walls of the house prevents heat and cold from penetrating into the building. Wall insulation reduces energy consumption by up to 15%.

The floor of the building

Insulating the floor of the building reduces the penetration of cold air into the building by 5%.

Hot water pipes

Insulation of hot water pipes is of great importance during the protection of the construction of buildings.

 

Types of insulation

-      Waterproofing

-      Insulation

-      Sound insulation

 

What is waterproofing?

Do you know what waterproofing is and what it does?

Moisture is one of the most important reasons for damage to buildings and reducing their useful life. For this reason, insulation of buildings is one of the most important and necessary construction works.

Moisture insulation means creating a protective coating on roofs, walls, floors, installations and pipes to prevent moisture and corrosion. Moisture is usually absorbed through the soil or due to rainfall. In other words, a protective measure. It is affected by external forces such as hydrostatic and capillary pressure to strengthen surface water or prevent unwanted infiltration of liquids.

Moisture causes the walls to swell as well as inflate the wall coverings such as plaster, crack, as well as mold and mildew. Humidity causes the facades of buildings to freeze.

One of the causes of iron rust is moisture, which causes the wood used inside the building to rot.

 

 

Benefits of waterproofing

If we want to give a correct answer to this question, we must know that any building is exposed to destruction if it is not maintained properly. Some of the factors that destroy buildings are water, wind, and air.

If the building is not protected from water and problems such as building erosion, it can damage the structures and weakens its function.


 

Buildings must be insulated against the following factors:

-      Natural factors

-      Incidents such as fires, floods, earthquakes

-      Building collapse

-      Structural failure in the building

 

 In which parts of the house is more waterproofing used?

-      Terrace

-      Ceiling, floor

-      Underground

-      Walls

-      Bathroom

Kitchen and ...

 

What causes moisture in the basement?

There are usually three sources of moisture in basements: rainwater, groundwater, internal moisture such as concrete moisture after construction.

Most basements are made of concrete. Concrete is porous and this property causes them to retain moisture(How to insulate a basement roof)

The earth also contains of groundwater that is absorbed by the concrete. Of course, this depends on how sealed the concrete walls are.

These factors cause moisture in the basement and sometimes cracks occur.

There are many ways to remove this moisture, including:

Demolition of the wall to separate the part that has been affected by moisture (removing the damp surface from the wall)

Use of ventilators to dry moisture

Use of moisture absorbers

Open doors and windows

Use of anti-humidity mode in gas coolers

 

All of these methods can solve the problem of moisture in your basement in a very limited way and in a short period of time, but to solve this problem, with a 20-year warranty, we have produced a bioorganic and waterproof Logic Water product.

The molecular composition of Logic Water is based on pico-technology (particles smaller than nanoparticles). This product is injected into the wall every 25 cm due to its manufacturing technology.

Because the density of the logical water bio-organic product is higher than water, it is placed in the pores of the wall. By creating surface tension, it causes water to repel and evaporate from the wall. The unique feature of this product is that it allows air to circulate. And because of this air circulation in the pores, the walls dry faster.

The process of drying moisture with Logic Water takes about three months, but the desired surface is insulated for up to 20 years.
