Isover thermal insulation specifications

Increasing the thermal protection of a private house during construction is an important stage of work, while significant volumes are insulated, and the cost of thermal insulation materials becomes a decisive factor. One of the popular inexpensive types of heat insulators is Isover insulation, the technical characteristics of which are excellent for use in individual housing construction.

It should be noted that Isover is a modern, more technological version of the classic glass wool, which was widely used in the Soviet period for thermal insulation of public pipelines for heating and hot water supply systems. Isover is produced in several modifications depending on the purpose, each brand in the series has different parameters, differs in the way of installation. Knowledge of the characteristics and varieties of Isover will help you choose the right product without overpayments, install it in compliance with the technological process, which is the main requirement for installing any type of insulation.

Izover - appearance

What is Isover, release form

The founder of the Isover brand is the international Saint-Gobain holding, whose roots were laid back in the 17th century, now the corporation includes more than 100 manufacturing companies and research centers conducting research in the construction industry. The company appeared on the Russian market 20 years ago; currently, a plant for the production of insulation works in the city of Yegoryevsk, Moscow Region. In 2011, the Saint-Gobain holding bought out the Chelyabinsk plant of Minvat, it has launched the production of insulation from stone fibers of mountain basalt.

Isover is obtained by processing sand (quartz), cullet, rock minerals (basalt), after melting the raw material in a high-temperature furnace, the mass is drawn into fibers using the TEL technology to obtain threads with a cross section of 4 - 5 microns and 110 - 150 microns in length.

Note: Saint-Gobain is the only manufacturer in the country with a patented crimping technology that allows the production of high mechanical strength fiberglass products.

Hard fiberglass is placed in slabs, soft fiber is rolled into mats and rolls, products differ in thickness and dimensional dimensions, depending on the purpose and production technology.

Typical thickness of one-layer or two-layer Izover is 50 - 100 - 150 mm, rolls are produced with a total area of ​​2 - 20 m2, their usual width is 1200 mm, length is from 4000 to 12000 mm. The area of ​​one Isover slab does not exceed 1 m2, its overall dimensions are kept within the limits of 600x1200 mm, the number in a pack is from 2 to 14 pieces.

Saint Gobain Campaign:

The company's products have been known on the Russian market for over 20 years. Ten years ago, a plant was opened in the Moscow region (Yegoryevsk), and since 2011 in Chelyabinsk, a stone fiber insulation has been produced at the Minvata plant. All products have international environmental certificates and comply not only with internal corporate standards, but also EN 13162 — ISO 9001.

Scope and characteristics of Izover

Heaters made of fiberglass and mineral wool are widely used in individual and civil housing construction, with their help they protect roofs, walls, ceilings, floors and partitions of cottages and country houses, baths and saunas from heat loss, insulate pipes for supplying hot water inside premises for heating and hot water supply, heat-insulate ventilation ducts, chimneys.

Isover has the following characteristics:

• Is a brand supplying rigid fiberglass boards with a tensile strength of 15 kPa and a compressive strength of 60 kPa.
• Minvats are produced from natural raw materials (quartz, basalt), therefore, they are environmentally friendly and harmless to human health, they have been assigned the EcoMaterial Absolute ecological group and the international certificate of environmental purity ISO 14001: 2004.
• The coefficient of thermal conductivity (CT) depends on the shape of the product and lies in the range of 0.03 - 0.045 W / (m • K), this indicator for glass wool is slightly higher than that of expanded polystyrene (foam) and basalt fiber.
• The vapor permeability of products is also related to the shape and has an indicator of 0.3 - 0.55 mg / m • h • Pa, the parameter indicates that the heat insulator passes air well.
• The noise reduction of a sheet of 100 mm is 45 - 55 dB, which means that glass wool has a high sound insulation.
• The moisture absorption coefficient of glass wool with incomplete immersion in water for 24 hours is 1% or 1 kg / m2, a material completely immersed in a liquid for 72 hours absorbs 10% of the liquid from its weight, while its thermal insulation properties drop sharply. To combat this phenomenon, water repellents with water-repellent qualities are introduced into the composition of the heat insulator.
• The density of Izover depends on the form of release (soft mats or hard sheets) and ranges from 11 to 155 kg / m3.
• Mineral wool is classified as non-combustible; in accordance with GOST 30244-94, they are assigned the NG flammability index.
• The operational service life of the Isovero mineral wool set by the manufacturer is 50 years without losing its physical and chemical properties.
• Mineral wool is biologically stable, prevents the formation of mold and bacterial colonies, insects do not like to multiply and be in the mineral environment.

Isover laying options

Specifications

It has many advantages. Thanks to them, today it occupies a leading position among all other heat insulators. When choosing, pay attention to the following technical characteristics of Izover and a description of the insulation:

1. Isover - This is a heat-insulating material, so that it has low thermal conductivity values ​​- 0.038.
2. Excellent sound insulation performance.
3. For the manufacture of insulation, fiberglass was used, which is not afraid of bacterial or fungal damage. It does not lend itself to the influence of rodents and small insects.
4. High moisture permeability... This indicator is a disadvantage. This is explained by the fact that the material has a porous structure.
5. Low specific gravity - 13 kg / m3.Due to the low weight of mineral wool, the process of installation, transportation and loading of the material is simplified. Installation of insulation can be done by hand.
6. Ecological cleanliness.
7. High degree of durability from the negative effects of chemicals.
8. High ductility... Mats can be compressed up to 60% and rolls up to 75%.
9. Fire resistance.

Advantages and disadvantages

The positive qualities of insulation are directly related to its physical properties; the advantages of Isover include:

• The low cost of products, which gives tangible advantages over other heaters, is widely used in individual construction for thermal insulation of residential buildings, baths, outbuildings.
• Thanks to the Multipack technology, light weight and elasticity create additional convenience during transportation, soft cotton wool in rolls is compressed during production, after unfolding it increases in volume 5-6 times and completely restores its working shape.
• The manufacturer produces an extensive line of products in a wide price range, designed for various purposes; the consumer has the opportunity to choose between a budget fiberglass and a more expensive basalt product.
• The physical properties and forms of release of mineral wool allow them to be used for thermal insulation of any complex contours and planes: pipelines of various diameters, chimneys, ventilation ducts.
• It is convenient to work with insulation, due to its low weight and form of release, it is possible to cover significant volumes with rolls or sheets in a short time. Compared to traditional glass wool, the installation speed doubles due to the fact that when laying in the frame, no additional fasteners are required.
• Mineral wool material not only provides thermal insulation, but also absorbs noise well, performing a double useful function; brands specially designed for sound protection are sold in the trade network.
• High elasticity due to advanced production technology ensures that the material does not shrink, maintaining the same thermal insulation characteristics throughout its entire service life.

In addition to many positive qualities, Isover has quite tangible disadvantages:

• Since mineral wool absorbs moisture well, it cannot be used on objects with high humidity and underground. To protect against humid air, a vapor barrier film must be placed under the insulation or the space between the shells of the thermal insulator and the object is ventilated.
• Low-cost soft mats, when laid, require a rigid frame, otherwise they deform and cease to perform thermal insulation functions.
• When laying glass wool, protective equipment should be used against fibers that negatively affect the eyes and mucous membrane of a person, irritate the skin and cause itching.
• If glass wool is taken for interior decoration, measures should be taken for its reliable sealing and isolation from the environment, otherwise small glass fibers will penetrate into the room, causing discomfort.
• Some environmentalists question the ecological purity of mineral wool, pointing out that binder resins are added during their production, which release formaldehyde, which is harmful to health, in small quantities.

How and from what is the ISOVER mineral insulation made | #Industrial scale

Where is Isover and its varieties used

This material has several varieties. Each of them is designed to perform specific jobs. Below we list them.

Isover KL34

Isover KL34 is available in slabs of 5 or 10 centimeters thick. They are mounted tightly on the frame; additional fasteners do not need to be used. Such plates can be used to insulate a ventilated facade and masonry, which consists of several layers. Any planes for insulation are suitable: both vertical and horizontal, and those that are inclined.

Isover KL37

Isover KL37 is supplied in tightly pressed packs. It also does not require additional fasteners during installation. This material is used to insulate floors between floors, walls, roof slopes. In this case, a tight fit of the material to the surface is necessary.

Isover KT37

Isover KT37 is available in compressed rolls. Does not require fasteners, but, like the previous material, it should fit well to the insulated plane. It is used for thermal insulation of roofs, attics, floors between floors, walls and partitions inside rooms.

Isover KT40

Isover KT40 is a two-layer material (each layer is 5 centimeters thick), which is produced in the form of tight rolls. It is used without additional fasteners for insulating surfaces located horizontally - floors and ceilings. If the cavity for filling with insulation is of insufficient depth, then the isover can be divided into two layers.

Isover STYROFOAM 300A

But such material as Isover STYROFOAM 300A requires the mandatory use of fasteners. It is produced in the form of solid rough slabs, the surface of which adheres well to concrete. The composition of this insulation includes extruded polystyrene foam, due to which insulated cells are formed.

This increases the temperature resistance and moisture resistance. This heat insulator is suitable for work on both horizontal and vertical surfaces. They insulate the outer and inner walls, floor and flat roof. You can apply plaster on top.

Isover VENTITERM

Isover VENTITERM is a versatile insulation. It is produced in the form of rigid plates treated with a water repellent. The basis of this material is mineral wool, consisting of basalt fibers. They insulate (on one side) ventilated facades, as well as pipes for ventilation and water supply. It is also used to protect precision instruments from the cold.

Isover pitched roof

Isover pitched roof - insulation used for roof insulation. Available in slabs 61 centimeters wide and 10 or 5 centimeters thick. It practically does not absorb moisture, and also absorbs sound well. High vapor permeability and incombustibility are two more useful properties of this material. It keeps heat well, especially if you use two layers, the upper one of which covers the joints of the lower one. Important: during installation, the step of the rafter system must be done so that the insulation plates do not fall through.

Isover ventilation façade

Isover ventilation façade is no different from an ordinary Isover. It is produced in a two-layer form, due to which it keeps heat well. During installation, do not allow the insulation to lag behind the surface.

Isover sound protection

Isover sound protection is available in mats and slabs.It is able to protect the room from external sounds better than other heaters. It is used to insulate suspended ceilings and interior partitions.

Insulation marking Izover

It is quite difficult to understand the labeling that Saint-Gobain puts on its product, depending on the physical properties, the following symbolic and numerical designations are found:

• CT scan - flexible rolled mats with a density of about 15 kg / m3, are used for insulating lagged floors, interfloor and ceiling ceilings, the KT37 variety has a thermal conductivity of 0.037 W / (m • K), KT40 - 0.040 W / (m • K). The KT brand is supplied in rolls 50 or 100 mm thick, the standard length of KT37 is 6300 mm, width is 600 mm (for KT40, the dimensions are 7000x610 mm), the compression ratio of the roll is 1: 4 (the volume is 0.16 m3 in the packed state and 0.71 m3 in open).
• KL - plate heat insulator 50 or 100 mm thick with an average density of 20 kg / m3, designed for frame installation without fixing with dowels, parameters of the common brand KL34 - thermal conductivity 0.034 W / (m • K), vapor permeability - 0.53 mg / m • h • Pa, upon delivery, the package is compressed twice, the return rate after compression is 98%.
• RKL - rigid sheets, reinforced on both sides with fiberglass, with a density of 60 kg / m3 and a thermal conductivity of 0.030 W / (m • K), the RKLA type has a tongue-and-groove connection and performs the function of additional wind protection during installation.
• SKL - semi-rigid sheets with a density of 55 kg / m3 and a thermal conductivity of 0.031 W / (m • K).
• RKL-EJ - sheets of increased rigidity, mounted by the ridge method with a density of 95 kg / m3 and KT 0.031 W / (m • K).
• VKL - rigid sheets with a density of 130 kg / m3 and a thermal conductivity of 0.032 W / (m • K).

Important: From the given digital marking, it is enough for the consumer to remember that the letter T means rolled material, and the L indicates the plate, the digital designation is equal to the thermal conductivity, the lower it is, the better the product retains heat.

The Russian-language marking of Izover is often used, in which the symbol P means plates, M - roll insulation, AL (AL) - reinforced foil covering, OL - fiberglass base (glass fiber).

Description and application

The presented material has many advantages and disadvantages of mineral wool. And this is not surprising, since their properties are quite close. It is produced in the form of plates, which can be either rigid or semi-rigid. There is also an opportunity to buy Isover in the form of rolls and mats. They are used when arranging the roof and facades of the house, ceilings, walls and floors.

Isover is based on glass fibers, the length of which reaches 100-150 microns, and the thickness is 4-5 microns. It is these parameters that allow the Isover thermal insulator to obtain high elasticity and resistance to loads. Competition can be made by the technical characteristics of the TechnoNIKOL insulation.

The approximate price of popular brands in the Russian market

The manufacturer Saint-Gobain supplies the domestic market with a wide range of products based on two types of mineral wool - fiberglass and rock basalt, the latter being more expensive due to its higher environmental friendliness, causing less harm to health during installation and operation.

The prices of plates and rolls differ for different suppliers of goods, usually the cost of one package is indicated, the average price for some types:

• 60 rubles for 1 m2 of a slab or roll of glass wool 50 mm thick (Warm House), the cost of a product with a thickness of 100 mm is 2 times higher;
• 85 rubles for 1 m2 of a slab of basalt wool 50 mm thick (Warm Roof series, Warm Walls, Quiet House);
• 125 rubles 1 m2 for quartz insulation with a foil vapor barrier in one roll, intended for warming saunas and baths (Warm Sauna).

Precautions at work

In accordance with safety precautions, the use of fiberglass materials requires the mandatory use of protective glasses, gauze bandages and gloves. We must definitely remember this. The use of long sleeves, trousers and socks is also important. This rule is difficult to follow in the hot season. But people who stick Isover's plates, exposing their torso, in the future greatly regret it. At first it seems that it is easy to work, and then the body begins to burn and itch. Even the shower in this case turns out to be useless. This is why you shouldn't ignore the above rule.

When working with this material, you need to stand in such a way that the bright rays of the sun fall on it.... This will allow you to see puffs of smoke.that come from him. This is fine glass dust. After installation, the insulation will not pose a danger, but during repair work it is advisable to use protective equipment. Proof of the safety of the material is the fact that Isover is even used by wasps to build nests. Yes, and sometimes mice gnaw holes in it.

To protect other living rooms from glass dust that forms during installation, it is necessary to lay a film for wall cladding between Izover and the clapboard. It could be yutavek. And even if the lining gradually crumbles, the sprayed particles will not pose a threat to you. Although if we compare Izover with glass wool of domestic production, which is not afraid of any protective barriers, then the former will obviously win in all respects. Yes, and rodents do not particularly like glass wool, unlike Izover. This also says a lot.

The lineup

Like any building material, isover insulation is available on the market in several types. Each of them is designed for specific building structures:

Against the background of many proposals for new insulating materials, Isover Plaster Facade mineral wool and other types of Isover remain recognized as classics. Fiberglass is processed using a special patented technology to obtain insulating materials with strictly defined properties. If high adhesion to adhesives is required for external wall insulation, we recommend using Isover façade.

In addition to chemical resistance to plaster mixes, this type of material has a zero fire level. According to the area of ​​application, Isover is divided into the following types:

1. For light thermal insulation;
2. For general construction insulation;
3. For special purposes;
4. Lightweight thermal insulation.

Almost weightless Isover mineral wool slabs exclude the load on the base. Plates are used in the reconstruction and construction of residential buildings and industrial facilities. It is a well-proven insulation material for floors, roofs, walls, attics, floors between floors. Plates are produced in optimal sizes. Thanks to this, installation time is 20% less. The specialists of our company will tell you what is better for you to buy - "Isover facade" or other products of this brand.

General construction insulation.

Fiberglass rolls "Isover" are mounted without fasteners, fit tightly to the base.They have proven to be excellent for thermal insulation of partitions, walls, floors and more. It is possible to buy Isover stone wool with an aluminum film for vaporization.

In the production of mineral wool of this class, they impart especially enhanced moisture resistance and fire safety properties. Insulation is widely used for the arrangement of pitched roofs of houses, floor insulation, insulation of water pipes and ventilation pipes. Isover sound protection is used to protect against external airborne noise. The level of protection is confirmed by acoustic tests.

How to make insulation correctly?

In order to correctly carry out the installation on the facade of the isover insulation, you do not need special knowledge or skills, because this is not difficult and you just need to comply with the installation instructions. Doing everything according to the instructions, you will get a facade of excellent quality, and warm rooms in the house.

Installation of insulation under the ventilation facade

To begin with, the starting profile is mounted by leveling the plates and protecting them from below on the wall. Focusing on it, then the first row of the ventilation facade is laid down.

Each plate of insulation isover is first primed with an adhesive solution. Then the main part of the solution is applied, and only then press the slab against the wall.

Each subsequent row of insulation boards is laid with an offset relative to the vertical seams of the lower row. After the end of the laying of the slabs, the ventilation facade is bottom, the slabs are fixed to the wall.

Insulation of the facade with Isover mineral wool

Installation of a plaster facade

The next stage of work is to give the surface of the insulation rigidity in order to start applying the finishing coating. For this purpose, a thin layer of glue is applied to the izover plaster facade slab, on which a plastic or steel mounting mesh is laid and rolled with a roller.

When the reinforcing layer is dry, it must be primed and covered with a layer of decorative plaster. Depending on the location of the place that was insulated, its finishing is carried out.

Types of facades Izover

Ordinary mineral wool is not suitable for insulating facades, as it is soft and easy to deform. The manufacturer has developed the Facade series specifically for external wall insulation. From above, it does not need additional finishing: the ventilation facade is covered only with reinforcing mesh and decorative plaster.

Isover Facade has all the quality certificates. It does not change the properties listed in the specification description when temperature and humidity fluctuate.

There are several types of Izover facade insulation for different purposes.One-layer insulation is mainly used for facade renovation. During construction, a two-layer insulation is used: the inner layer retains heat, and the outer one protects from the wind.

Ventilated facade Izover

Ventfasad Isover consists of two layers of insulation, which significantly increases the thermal insulation properties. It contains mineral wool and fiberglass. On one side, the slab is covered with fiberglass, so Izover Optima is not afraid of wind and mechanical stress. The slabs are fastened according to the tongue-and-groove type, so there are no gaps at the joints. It is used both in private construction and in the construction of high-rise buildings.

Ventfasad Izover niz

This type of insulation is used to decorate the interior walls of a house in combination with external insulation. Its main purpose is filling joints. Due to the elasticity of the material, the appearance of air pockets in the walls is excluded. Possesses good heat and sound insulation.

It is unacceptable to install the bottom layer of thermal insulation with a gap of more than 2 mm. This leads to the appearance of "cold bridges" and reduces the efficiency of the entire structure. Also, installation with a gap between the wall and the mineral wool slab is not allowed.

Ventfasad Izover up

Thermal insulation of this type is used to insulate the outer walls of houses in combination with an internal insulation. It has a low coefficient of thermal conductivity, which means it retains heat well in the house. Another advantage is good wind resistance, which makes it possible to use Isover Facade top in different climatic zones.

Supplied in sheets of optimal size, which reduces installation time in half, and the number of fasteners by 40%.

The upper layer slabs should overlap the joints of the lower insulation layer. Fastening is carried out with disc anchors. It is they who give the slab a snug fit to the wall surface.
