Exterior insulation of the house. How much does it help?
08.09.2021


Exterior insulation is one of the best methods when it comes to energy efficiency of your home and thus reducing the costs of heating it. Because these costs are constantly rising, keeping heat inside is essential. The purpose of the insulation is to stop the dissipation of heat through the walls and thus the heat during the winter or the cold air from the summer to remain inside.

This real estate blog article presents all the information about the exterior insulation of the house and how much it helps.

Exterior insulation improves the thermal inertia of the walls and also reduces possible water infiltration and moisture. It also prevents the separation of mold and moisture and maintains an optimal level of air humidity. Besides all these pluses, the materials used in this process also ensure a sound comfort, necessary especially in urban areas.

Regarding the materials used in the exterior insulation of the walls, it should be mentioned that there are several types of materials that can be used. Very often, an exterior insulation comes with an interior insulation. The materials used may be the same or may differ depending on the purpose and construction of the house. These materials must necessarily provide some important points:
• to ensure a good thermal and sound insulation;
• not to load the foundation of the house;
• to be profitable;
• easy to mount;
• to prevent the appearance of molds and dampness;
• to be efficient and resistant in time.

The process can be easier if you know from the beginning that a house built is insulated differently from one under construction. The difference is the preparation stages. The insulation of a house under construction has a main stage that refers to the drying of the material from which the walls of the building are made (if necessary).
In the case of built homes, it is necessary to remove the plaster, and the sanitary elements or other aspects can make the journey difficult.

Before setting off, look for some information about the process or consult a specialist in the field who can advise you and with whom you can choose the right materials for your needs. Even if they have a higher cost, quality materials will save you from future repairs or other problems that may occur.

In a future material we return with the types of materials often used by owners when they choose to insulate their home both outside and inside.
