Application of HotRock thermal insulation stone wool slabs as a middle layer in three-layer wall structures with external brick cladding (other small-piece products)
Layered masonry insulation is a system consisting of a load-bearing wall, a layer of insulation and a wall made of facing material. As an external layer, brick is most often used, which, if necessary, can be additionally plastered or covered with artificial stone. One of the most common options for insulation materials is basalt insulation HOTROCK. High-quality insulation with a layer thickness determined taking into account the climatic zone will protect the house from the cold and provide sound insulation.
Insulation advantage HOTROCK BLOCK is an absolute incombustible material. The special structure of the material facilitates the installation process and provides good thermal insulation.
Presentable appearance and high durability of the structure are ensured by proper design, quality of materials used and qualified installation. The most important stage of preparation is the calculation of vapor permeability. To avoid the formation of condensation in the thickness of the structure, it is necessary to take into account the possibility of better transmission of steam by each subsequent layer, starting from the inner wall to the outside, so that there are no obstacles in the way of steam escape.
To ensure air exchange and avoid condensation, builders recommend leaving a space between the insulation and the outer wall of the order of 2 cm, as well as making a number of small holes in the lower and upper parts of the masonry.
