A great value in the construction of a sauna or a sauna has a reliable insulation of the floor, ceiling and walls.
Aluminum foil for baths has been successfully used for this purpose. It has the ability to reflect steam and heat, does not give in to fire and can withstand very high temperatures.
In combination with thermal insulation, aluminum foil is used as a reflective insulator. To heat losses were minimal, a foil is usually mounted insulation.
The use of foil in the construction of a sauna or bath provides a guarantee of total heat preservation indoors.
In addition, significantly reduced heating costs, because with the use of foil the room very quickly heats up, and the heat is stored for a long time.

Scope of aluminum foil
Aluminum foil can be used as a high-temperature reflective heat insulation in baths, saunas, boilers and water heaters, ventilation and air conditioning systems.
In a word - everywhere, where there are very high temperatures. Foil for baths can also be used in ceilings, attics, floors, as well as walls of various buildings.

Many owners of households today specifically buy foil for a bath for installation of "warm floors".
When installing a "warm floor" system, aluminum foil for a bath is laid on a layer of insulation made of mineral wool or polystyrene foam.
Composition of foil
The foil contains only pure aluminum. It has durability and very high heat resistance.
Aluminum foil is available in rolls, which have an area of 10 sq.m.and a width of 1 meter.
Densely placed metal atoms in the material guarantee the foil excellent gas-tightness.
In the manufacturing process, the foil acquires sterility, so it is completely non-toxic, and from this, it will never become a haven for all microorganisms and bacteria.
Technology of aluminum foil use
Mount aluminum foil in various ways. On a wooden crate, it is fastened with small nails or a stapler. When foil sheets are attached together, a foil scaffold is used.
For heat to be reflected more efficiently, an air gap of 3 cm width must be left between the finish coat and the material sheet.
A lining is usually used as the finish coat in saunas and saunas.
In the premises you can use a heater with foil for the bath.
Aluminum perfectly conducts current, so when installing electrical wiring, always remember the complete insulation of electrical equipment before using aluminum foil.
