Insulation of walls from the foam block from the outside and inside: options and possibilities of
technology The choice of insulation technology is recommended to be carried out depending on the features of the structure in question. In particular, specialists often carry out a warming of the bath from the inside, but residential houses built of the same material prefer to be insulated from the outside, because this can effectively save space in the premises.
The house is made from a foam block outside, usually with the help of special tile materials. The most common of these is lightweight and practical foam. Moreover, it is advisable to carry out the insulation of the house from the foam blocks outside in several stages:
- preparation of the treated surfaces;
- laying of thermal insulation material;
- leveling and processing of seams;
- application of plaster and selected decorative coating.
As you can see, such warming of walls is a simple enough task, even an amateur can cope with it. However, it is important to approach the organization of the process responsibly, not saving on the materials used and doing all the work leisurely and conscientiously. After all, from how competently the insulation of the foam block was made outside, not only does the comfort of the finished structure depend, but also the degree of protection of its walls from negative external influences.
As already mentioned above, the insulation of walls from the foam block can be carried out from the inside. This technology of thermal insulation in modern society is less common, but still it deserves your attention.
Insulation of a bath from a foam block or apartment house on the inside
Often, consumers want to insulate the house from foam concrete from the inside, using special glass wool or other modern heat-insulating materials. This option, of course, has the right to exist, but it is important to remember that the insulation of the bath of foam blocks( or even an apartment house) must necessarily mean the organization of a vapor barrier. A layer of a vapor barrier material is simply covered with a layer of insulation material - otherwise moisture may enter into it, which will cause the development of microorganisms and fungi, as well as the failure of the entire system.
In addition, it is very important that the thermal insulation of foam walls from inside or outside is carried out at a sufficiently high quality level. It is necessary to choose the right thermal insulation material, correctly prepare the surface, lay it, seal the joints. Only if all these requirements are met, warming the apartment house, giving, baths or warming the loggia from the foam blocks will give the expected result.
As a conclusion
From all of the above, it becomes clear that the external insulation of the house from the foam blocks has certain advantages over the internal. However, whatever technology you prefer, it is necessary to ensure that all work in the organization of the process under consideration is performed correctly, competently and in compliance with safety regulations.
