Thermal insulation is the unchanged component of any construction. Currently, materials from this category are presented on the market a very diverse assortment, so the buyer is difficult to make the right choice.

Among the presented diversity, the insulation of the insulation of the ISOVER brand is stable. This is a trademark of the world's famous concern "Saint-Goben", which supplies its products to the domestic market over 20 years. During this time, a certain opinion has already managed to develop a certain opinion. Therefore, we suggest familiarizing yourself with the peculiarities and characteristics of this material.

Production technology "Eau return"

What is isover? This is a midwate based insulation, which is produced in rolls, plates and soft mats. However, regardless of the form, the products are manufactured by the same technology. The process looks like this:

A mixture of quartz sand, limestone, calcated soda, microscopic particles is used as a raw material.

Components are mixed and heated to temperature 1,300 degrees. As a result of thermal exposure, the solid components are melted, turning into a hard homogeneous mass.

The resulting composition is loaded into a special installation (centrifuge), the bowl of which rotates at a huge speed. The walls of the working capacity have holes through which the molten substance is squeezed out by forming thin threads.

Then the obtained fiberglass is mixed with glue based on polymeric materials.

The mixture is re-subjected thermal processing, in general, equalizing the layers with steel shafts.

At the final stage of production, the insulation is cut by ribbons, following the specified sizes.

Varieties of thermal insulation

The line of insulation isover has several items. Each of the varieties of the material produced has its own characteristics, which determines the scope of application. In particular, in the market you can meet such categories of insulation:

• Classic stove.

• Scope shape.

  Ventfasad.

  Fucked facade.

  Floating floor.

  Soundproofing.

Basic characteristics can be found from the marking, which is indicated on the package. It looks like this:

OL-E.. The only material in the series, which is used for external work. The material has high density and non-porous structure.

KL. Soft plates intended for insulation of internal partitions and ventilated facades.

Al. The insulation with such marking has a layer of aluminum foil on the surface, which performs the function of vapor barrier.

Kt.. This rolled insulation used for the isolation of large areas.

Knowing these features, you can easily choose the insulation to solve specific construction tasks.

Scope of application of fiberglass products

"Eau" is considered a universal insulation, so suitable for the performance of such works:

Heat - and sound insulation of external wall structures.

War insulation.

Arrangement of ventilated facades.

Sound insulation of inner wall partitions.

Industrial ventilation systems, pipelines.

Pros and cons of the insulation about which should be remembered

Like any building material, Isover has its advantages and disadvantages. By the way, the advantages of the insulation are noticeably more, which largely determines its consistently growing popularity.

TO strong sides relate:

Wide product line.

Easy storage and transportation.

Non-hatching.

Long service life - up to 50 years.

Resistance to temperature differences.

Reliable heat - and sound insulation.

Minimum weight.

No shrinkage.

Simple installation.

Obvious shortcomings Considered:

No environmental safety.

Dependence external factors: Great absorbs moisture.

Some builders relate to the shortcomings of the soft structure of the insulation, which limits the scope of its application.

Technical characteristics of material

With an optimal price / quality ratio, thermal insulation has such technical specifications:

High thermal conductivity: 0.033-0.037 W / MK.

Class of Culture NG: It does not ignore and does not support burning.

Wide operating temperature range: without deformation withstands heating to 6,000 degrees.

Density: order 15 kg / m2.

Moisture absorption: 0.08 kg / m per day.

It is necessary to clarify that these are averaged indicators. The insulation is produced by a wide range, therefore density and thermal conductivity indicators can change.

What is better, "escape" or "Rockvul"?

These brands of the insulation are direct competitors in the construction market, so consumers are interested in what material to give preference. Immediately need to clarify that both insulation have similar characteristics, however, are manufactured by different technologies.

IsOver is a mineral wool made on the basis of fiberglass, produced by the French company. Rockwool - basalt wool produced in Poland. Considering that the second insulation is made on the basis of basalt breeds, production technology completely eliminates the presence of glass. Therefore, Polish products are considered to be more environmentally safe.

If we talk about what a heater is better, there is no clear answer here: it all depends on the scope of application. In particular, the "escape" is better suitable for insulation of floors of the first floors, non-residential roof, balconies and loggias.

This is due to the fact that non-compliance with the installation technology can lead to the fact that microscopic glass particles will turn in the air of the residential premises, which can adversely affect health. Rockvul does not suffer from such a "illness", therefore it is optimally suitable for inter-storey and internal wall partitions.

Do not forget that Isover is much cheaper that for many is a decisive factor when choosing insulation.

Subtleties work with insulation isover

Working with the material cannot be neglected by means of individual protection. Gloves and respirator are a prerequisite when making installation.

Directly laying the insulation does not represent complexity. The wall is covered from dirt, closed by waterproofing film. Then there is a doomle of wooden bars or aluminum profiles. The insulation fills the space between the bars, the layer of vapor insulation and the finish finish goes from above.

Briefly about the manufacturer

As mentioned above, Isover is a trademark of the Saint-Goben Industrial Companies Group. Enterprise has 350-year history, the central office is in Paris. Representative offices of the company are in 67 countries of the world. In addition to ISOVER, Saint-Goben produces insulation of the ISOROC and Isitec brand.

On the territory of Russia, enterprises are located in Egorievsk and Chelyabinsk near Moscow. Products are made according to the original technology, it is subject to mandatory certification of an international sample, complies with GOST standards. It should be noted that since 2013.Enterprises launched a production line for the release of basalt wool under the brand of the same name.

Insulation brand the wrongness is considered one of best species Mineral wool. Numerous reviews talk about its excellent insulation properties and convenience in work. However, the fibers presented on sale in the composition of the composition of the fibers should be distinguished, since under the brand name the escape is produced both basalt plates and more affordable thermal insulation of glass gambled.

The owner of the ISOVER brand produces its products in a wide variety of options, which allows you to choose the desired material for any work. In the form of insulation from mineral wool, the avoever is three species:

• rolls (CT label);
• soft mats - in essence, the same rolled insulation, but cut into separate fragments;
• masterpit (KL) is the most convenient option with compact sizes and sufficient rigidity.

Additionally, thermal insulation may have a foil or fiberglass coating, or a TYVEK Parobarrier. Unlike single-layer materials, this product relates to a combustibility group of SG, which limits the scope of its use.

Chief Enemy - increased humidity. Only competently performed waterproofing Martplit can cope with this problem: impregnation, foil, the use of protective films and membranes. Without it specifications Insulation will deteriorate rapidly. With moisturizing, even 1%, the insulation properties of the irregular decrease by 10%. True, in production, it is treated with special compositions, but at high vapor permeability (0.5 mg / m × h × Pa) remains risk of saturation of water droplets contained in the air. For rolled materials, such treatment is ineffective at all, so the protection against moisture will have to be provided independently. However, the escape has already consisted of this - its glass gamble is not only well absorbs water, but it gives it quickly.

Glasswater

Of particular interest are the fiberglass series, produced under the brand name. With proper use, they provide reliable insulation of any designs and surfaces, do not rot and boast a decent service life. Their properties and characteristics in today's review we also give first.

1. Classic.

Universal mats and plates (classic plus) 50-100 mm thick. Like any glass gamble, has an unpleasant property to cause irritation when contacting open areas. All feedback on this insulation will be filled with mention of its only shortcoming. So when working with the classic of Iover, you will have to take care of our own protection, so that you should not endure an unpleasant itch all over the body. Nevertheless, this thermal insulation differs from the usual glass gambler - cross-shaping fibers. New technology Production significantly reduces the absorbency of mats, although it does not eliminate this lack at all. So steam and water protection in any case are necessary.

The insulation is a heater of the classic in unauthorized horizontal structures:

• flat and gentle ridges of roofs;
• basements, inter-storey and attic floors;
• sheathing insulation ceilings from the inside;
• any carcass designs where the Masterpit can be laid by Muspar.

Matt width is standard - 1.22 m, the length is selected from a number of values \u200b\u200bfrom 6.15 to 8.2 m. The density is minimal - only 11 kg / m3 (approximately so much package with two mats). Isover Classic Twin - Rolled Option of Thin Fiberglass, why vapor permeability increased to 0.55 mg / m × h x pa. Excellent copes with the insulation of mansard roofs, "cold" attics and basement overlap. The entire "classic" of the fiber is bladder have high elastic properties - the resistance of the volume after the load is removed exceeds 85%. At the same time, the mats are packaged with 4-fold compression, which is very convenient during self-delivery.

This series also features high elasticity and a little wider selection of thickness: three sizes from 50 to 150 mm. The width is traditionally 1.2 m, the length of mats - 5 and 4 meters. The insulation of the company is an avo profi, judging by the characteristics and reviews - the most endless material in this lineup, which is suitable even for isolation of carrier structures. It has a greater density of 14-15 kg / m3. At the same time, this fact did not affect its thermal conductivity - a rare combination for glass gambles.

In production, not only glass fibers are used - mats have an additional layer of foil isolation. Due to it, it provides the smallest thermal conductivity of the iswest (0.037 W / m × ° C) and absolute countertilebility. Wool works great at temperatures up to +200 ° C, but it is better to use it where the indicators do not exceed + 100-120 ° C.

The sauna is produced in two variants of thickness - 50 and 100 mm, but the coating area is quite decent. The smallest roll sizer is 1.2x6.25 m, the length can be twice as much. Despite the relatively high cost of the insulation for the saunas, according to the builders, it will save money and time on the decoration. Two-layer isoovin is enough so that it should not be additionally bothering with the vocabarrier and waterproofing.

The laying is performed by the reflecting layer inside - it provides more reliable thermal insulation and rapid warming of the bath or sauna. However, between aluminum foil and internal covering, leaving a ventilated gap of 1.5-2.5 cm. A saturated ferry air passing through wooden finish, I will not be able to lean through the insulation, so it is necessary that the water droplets can freely evaporate from the surface of the island.

Fiberglass special types of fiberglass have contributed to Positive Products about Product Products:

• Scope roof - moisture-resistant plates with increased vapor permeability. Have a standard width of 61 cm, which allows you to insert an avuser between the rafted. Features of the use of roofing insulation dictate and its thickness is 100 and 150 mm.
• Ventfasad (top and bottom) - a glass coating minicle. Have a two-layer structure, however, the main characteristics of the Ventfasad is no different from the other series of this brand.
• Sounds are noise insulating material that has similar properties with isover acoustics. Available in two versions (mats or stoves) for mounting on the walls from the inside.

Stone Vata.

At mineral base, highly specialized insulation of this brand are produced, effective in sound insulation of residential and industrial premises. The acoustic target of 0.6x1.2 m in size is the highest characteristics. The heat-saving properties of stone wool is slightly better than that of fiberglass mats, so there is no tangible difference between them. But, by strength and stiffness, basalt significantly exceeds light rolled materials.

The insulation of Isover from durable volcanic breed fibers is available for other construction purposes:

1. Light - basalt wool density of only 36-40 kg / m3 with excellent insulating characteristics and an acceptable cost. It is used for external and internal structures under the trim.

2. VAN - hard minicle for ventilated facades. With a relatively low density of 100 kg / m3, they have improved acoustic properties and moisture-proof due to hydrophobic impregnation.

3. Optimal - thermal insulation from basalt fibers, withstanding temperatures up to +400 ° C and having low water absorption indicators. The material is used for pipes, but according to reviews it goes well on the facades as a supplement to the fuel oil supply.

4. Extra - as insulation under the trim (lining, PVC siding, facing brick). In some cases, the use of the Martpit for pitf roofs and frame wall structures is allowed.

We read marking

The secret of good thermal insulation in the correct selection of materials for each type of work. Where the product name speaks for itself, it's hard to confuse. But some types of such prompts do not give, so we bring their description in our review:

• KL - soft plates with digital marking from 34 to 37 suitable for laying from inside (thermal insulation of walls, partitions, floors on lags). Those that have the designation from 37 to 100 are designed for facades.
• OL (OL-E) - differ in high density and insignificant porosity of the surface layer. Thanks to this, rigid plates are great for external work, followed by plastering right on top of Minvati.
• CT - Soft Roll Materials The escapes are used on complex structures, as well as in the insulation of a large area. Heat tips have high biostability, therefore can be used in basement rooms and for winding pipelines.
• Al - marking indicates the presence of a reflective aluminum layer of thin foil. Such products are simultaneously in the role of insulation and the parobar.

Opinions of developers

"I took the sauna avoever, for a bath. According to the characteristics and quality of claims no - really good stuff. It is not particularly dust, the temperature in the steam room holds. But at work, he was not so comfortable. Other manufacturers have many sizes for each insulation, and here it is unrealized to buy something suitable. It remains only to cut, losing time and patience. "

Pavel Ermakov, Sverdlovsk region.

"On one of the sites I read in the revocation, they say, the avo toxic. Mile my, nonsense and nonsense! Yes, the body can be made from this insulation, if during operation shine torso and do not use gloves. But the reason for the very small dust. By the way, the Izove is rushed much less than other species of glass gamblers. And basalt insulation and such problems are not delivered at all. Observe the instructions and nothing terrible with you does not happen. "

Valery Petrovich, Yekaterinburg.

"I have my own opinion about the use of the material an avo. It's a place where a warm rug is needed: under the floor, in the roof, at worst, under the skin of the ceilings. But in the walls to lay it, I would become painful. With such low density and stiffness indicators, it still worshes after a while, whatever the manufacturer promised. But for softness and elasticity, you can put a couple of pluses - for not a very smooth reason it is a great option. "

Konstantin, Chelyabinsk region.

"I advised me for the construction of the house - it works as a foreman in some private firm. I liked how it praised the company's products from the company: and they use it on all objects, and the cost is good, and the weight is small. Only then it was told that he had a different brand in the country. We draw conclusions, gentlemen. "

Arseny Shirokov, Moscow.

"And I think it's not worth the entire carriage to row. There is also a glass gamble in this brand, which really does not hold the form. Basalt materials from the manufacturer are quite worthy and in their price category they show the characteristics not worse than others. Just for each type of work, you need to find and buy your insulation. There are no wretched stone slabs on the pipes, but the roll is glass gambles and the waterproofing will fall as expected, and the temperature will keep well. "

Evgeny, Nizhny Novgorod.

Famous in the world since 1937, the Brend Eau or Isover has been selling its products in Russia and the CIS for several decades. Heat insulation Eau returnings are mats, stoves and rolls from stone wool and glass gambles. Today we'll figure it out in their features.

The ISOVER brand belongs to the French company Saint-Goben with headquarters in Paris. The company was founded in distant 1665 by order of the French king Louis XIV. By the way, it is noteworthy that then the company was engaged in the manufacture of mirrors and glass. And in the name of the brand "IsOVER" two words "isolation" and "glass" are used. Today in Russia, the brand has two plants on which insulation makes. One makes materials from stone fiber, another of fiberglass. Heat insulation isover In Russia used to be sold under the name "Walway".

Purpose

In its ruler, the manufacturer has several dozen items of materials intended for insulation and noise insulation:

· Facades;

· Partitions;

· And other objects.

Below are schematically shown areas of these materials.

General characteristics of insulation "IsOVER"

Perhaps, within the framework of one article, it is difficult to pay attention to each direction in the line, so we will reduce exemplary general characteristics These materials.

The main characteristics of the insulation escape:

• Thermal conductivity: 0.031-0.041 W / m2 * k;
• Combustion: from g1 (weaklyor) to ng (non-combustible);
• Parry permeability: 0.50 - 0.55 mg / MCHPA;
• Lifecycle: up to 50 years;
• Air permeability is 120 * 10-6m3 / m × s × pa;
• Thickness: from 50 millimeters.

These are only averaged indicators, always behind the most accurate indicators to go to the official website of the manufacturer. Below in the table, we give the example more accurate characteristics of light insulation.

Also for information, we give a table characteristics Eau return Classic

Stone Vata.

Minvata Eau return is made at the factory in Chelyabinsk, and are only available in the form of plates with different rigidity rates.

Minvat Isover is the following product line products:

· Facade master;

· Acoustic;

· Optimal;

· Standard;

A little later we describe the features of each representative of this line. Mineral wool itself is more expensive than fiberglass materials.

Plate size as always 1,200 per 600 mm. Thickness, differs and is given in the sizes table below.

Glasswater

The cheaper and more frequently used glasswater is presented in the product line:

· Warm roof;

· Warm walls;

· Warm house;

· Silent home;

· Classic escape (classic escape);

· Scope roofing;

· Sounds;

· Frame p;

· Frame m;

· Facade Light;

· Ventfasad;

· Floating floor;

· Sandwich Life;

· Quiet and warm roof;

· Warm (universal, only for Siberia).

Let's pay attention to three popular types of materials:

· ISOVER KT 37;

· ISOVER KT 40;

· ISOVER KT 37.

Description of materials. Both first material are soft rolled fiberglass mats. However, the figures in the index include the ISOVER KT 37 to the corresponding 37 grade of thermal insulation, and the KT 40 is a twin insulation - two mats are laid on each other. The total thickness is 50 and 75 mm.

The KT 37 and 40 ratio of the corresponding - 0.037 and 0.040 W / m K. The width of rolls in both cases is the same 1220 mm. For both, it is necessary to build a crate and materials for internal insulation of walls and other internal works. The density is about 15 kg per cubic meter. Sometimes you can also meet the labeling of Isover KT Special (CT Speech) is a heater in the rolls of the same series. Below are the data in more detail.

Heater is an escape 37 and 40 Specifications and sizes:

ISOVER KL 37 Material in the form of mats (soft plates The escape has a density of 16 kg / m3). This series is inherent:

· Roofs;

In those places where the load will not be loaded on the insulation (that is, in the frame and in lags).

Below in the table can be viewed isover characteristics KL 37.

Model CL 34 has a smaller thermal conductivity than 37th.

For sauna exist separate species Foil material. One side of the mat is covered with foil, which prevents its wetting.

The density and dimensions of the irregular correspond to the GOST. The declared parameters of the insulation, the avoor and technical characteristics correspond to the market as a whole.

Cost

The cost of the insulation, especially during the crisis, is a particularly important topic. In this article, we will not be able to give prices for all options, but still main show.

For example, a "Sauna" model in a roll of long 6250, 1200 width and 100 mm thick will cost approximately 1,400 rubles.

IsOver KL 37, 10 plates in the package, the stove thickness of 100 mm will also cost about 1,400 rubles.

Scope roofing, 20 plates, 100 mm thick each, will cost 1000 rubles.

We present the screenshot of the cost from the popular online store.

Eau return is a famous trademark that specializes in production building materials. This is the only brand in Russia, which produces thermal insulation based on basalt and fiberglass. The product range is quite wide, which opens up great opportunities in terms of insulation of both private and industrial buildings.

Description and application

The presented material has many advantages and disadvantages of mineral wool. And it is not surprising, since their properties are close enough. They produce it in the form of plates that can be both tough and semi-rigid. There is also the opportunity to buy an escape in the form of rolls and mats. They are involved in the arrangement of the roof and facades of the house, ceilings, walls and floors.

At the base, the firewood 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 allows the thermal insulator to avoid high indicators of elasticity and resistance to loads.

On photo insulation escape

Specifications

It has a large number of Advantages. Thanks to them, he occupies a leading position among all other thermal insulators. When choosing, pay attention to the following technical characteristics of izovera:

1. Faith - This is thermal insulation material, so that it is characterized by low thermal conductivity indicators - 0.038.
2. Excellent sound insulation.
3. For the manufacture of insulation, fiberglass was used, which are not afraid of bacterial or fungal lesion. It does not affect rodents and small insects.
4. High moisture permeability. This indicator is a disadvantage. It is explained by the fact that the material has a porous structure.
5. Small specific gravity - 13 kg / m3. This simplifies the process of installation, transportation and loading material. Installing the insulation can occur with your own hands.
6. Environmental purity.
7. High degree of resistance From the negative effect of chemicals.
8. High plasticity. Mats can be compressed to 60%, and rolls up to 75%.
9. Fire resistance.

On video - the technical characteristics of the insulation is an avo:

If we talk about the size of the material the escape, they depend on the form of release. Mat roll thickness can be 5.10 cm - one-layer option. And for a two-layer thickness of the same layer - 5 cm. For a roll type, a standard width is 120 cm, and the length is 7-14 cm. But the clamping area can vary in the range of 16-20 m2.

But what insulation under the ventilated facade should be used, it is described in this article:

Varieties

The manufacturer of the heat insulator is an escape of a very wide range of products, each of which is characterized by their functional appointments. All products of the company are divided into 2 types: for industrial and domestic use.

KL34.

This thermal insulator is represented in the form of plates, and its thickness reaches 5 or 10 cm. Apply it when frame mounting, It does not require the fastening of a dowel.

On the photo insulation of the kl34

But what materials it is to carry out insulation of the walls, will help to understand the information

Isoather is a famous brand for the manufacture of high-quality thermal insulation materials. His assortment has many products, each of which has its own technical characteristics and scope. But it combines them all such qualities as durability and low thermal conductivity.
