INSUBOARD ​CAVITY WALL INSULATION ​SYSTEM

About a third of all the heat lost in an uninsulated home escapes through the walls.
Cavity Wall insulation is often recommended as an ideal way​to conserve energy and lower your monthly bill.

​Cavity wall insulation is installed primarily for ventilation and heat loss reduction
that can be brought by the cavity between the walls.

It also preferred by homeowners because it can help reduce energy consumption as well as acts as a shield
​to prevent rain water from penetrating the outer wall and getting inside the home.

Application of Insuboard in Cavity Wall Insulation:

Insuboard can be used for cavity wall insulation in any type of building.
​
​Cavity Wall application can be used in commercial building, residential homes, cold storage’s etc.

Advantages of Cavity Wall Insulation System:

1) Restriction of moisture passing through the wall.
2) Better thermal insulation, which leads to better thermal comfort
3) Lower energy bills, thus savings.

Suggested Bill of Quantity - Specification:

​“Providing and fixing on the external wall Insuboard XPS- Extruded Polystyrene Board Insulation ---- mm thick, 34-36 Kg/Cum density, thermal conductivity of 0.028 W/m.K, having a minimum compressive strength of > 300 Kpa and water absorption less than 0.2 % by volume. Providing an air cavity of 25 mm before building another brick / AC Block wall as final finish, as per the directions of the engineer in charge.

Cavity Wall insulation method for Insuboard:

1) Supplying & application of ____ mm thick Insuboard (XPS), Extruded Polystyrene Board, 34-36 kg/m3 density, > 300 kpa compressive strength & thermal conductivity 0.028 w/m.k, of size 600 mm x 1.25 mtr.

2) Insuboard is to be installed on external wall with the help of screws/ fasteners on all the four corners & center of the board.
​
3) After that leaving an air gap of 25mm another brick wall or A.C. Block wall can be made for final finish.

Site Handling Instructions:

INSUboard must be stored in a shaded area on wooden pallets neatly covered by a thick fabric and tied securely in a manner that will minimize exposure to sunlight and UV. Excessive exposure to sunlight, UV and other sources of heat will result in considerable deterioration of the product and reduce its thermal and physical properties.
​
The sheets are packed in plastic cover to avoid any damage during transit or at the site. Care should be taken while handling/transporting to avoid puncturing and damaging the joints, shiplap, edges and surface of the INSUboard.

​Finalizing Insuoard for cavity wall insulation:

For this application boards in lengths of 600 mm x 1250 mm are practical, as they are easy to handle at site and are convenient to transport and shift at shift.

Boards with square edges are best suited for the application.
