Effective Use of Vacuum Insulation Panels in New Constructions and Renovations

In renovations and reconstructions, challenges arise regarding the thickness of thermal insulation, which can affect space efficiency and the financial outcome of the project. Conventional thermal insulation materials often take up a significant amount of space and can be financially inefficient. Vacuum insulation panels emerge as a promising alternative, especially in overcoming obstacles related to thermal insulation thickness.

 

Introduction

In new constructions, the requirements for thermal insulation thickness are typically predetermined, whereas in renovations and reconstructions, obstacles often arise due to the addition of extra thick layers of thermal insulation. This can negatively impact the floor plan efficiency and the financial outcome of the project. Additionally, conventional thermal insulation materials are often spatially wasteful.

 

Utilization of Vacuum Insulation Panels

Vacuum insulation panels represent a promising solution in renovations and reconstructions, where obstacles regarding thermal insulation thickness are encountered. These panels offer exceptional thermal insulation without significantly increasing the thickness of walls, floors, or other structures. This allows for more efficient space utilization, which can positively impact the project's final outcome.

 

Conclusion

The use of vacuum insulation panels proves to be a sensible choice in renovations and reconstructions, where obstacles regarding thermal insulation thickness are encountered. These panels provide exceptional thermal insulation without significantly increasing the thickness of structures, which can positively impact space efficiency and the financial outcome of the project.

 

Solutions

1.
Installation of a vacuum insulation panel on the ceiling of an underpass, beneath which there is a heated living space. Vacuum insulation panels, with their exceptionally thin profile, have allowed the underpass to maintain its typical height and remain easily passable. Result is analysed with Thermographic camera.

2.
Renovation of a residential building where we installed vacuum insulation panels at the entrance, enabling normal passage and door opening without major construction interventions. Result is analysed with Thermographic camera.

3.
Renovation of a residential building involved the installation of vacuum insulation panels in the living room, situated above an open terrace. The customer encountered a challenge due to height limitations for the floor thickness, which should not exceed the height of the bottom edge of the window. The Turvac R&D team prepared a detailed layout with exact dimensions for the most optimal installation.
