One of the most widespread methods of private house roof heat insulation is presented by the heat insulation of attic floor. It is the so-called Cold Attic. Such method is simplest and fastest. HOTROCK LIGHT, HOTROCK LIGHT COMPRESSION, and HOTROCK BLOCK thermal insulation is simply laid on the attic floor on the preliminarily laid vapour barrier film, which protects the thermal insulation against excessive moistening and condensate formation. Since air circulation on the attic is miniscule, it is not required to additionally assemble any windshield above HOTROCK heat insulation material. At the same time, it is important to observe the following points: to create a fifty millimetre air gap around the perimeter of the attic, an indent. A similar measure will provide an efficient air exhaust out of cornices. The total thickness and amount of material is calculated arising out of a thermo-technical calculation. The use of Cold Attic pitched roof together with other energy saving technological solutions enables to significantly cut the use of electric energy and reduce expenses for heating/cooling a building.
In the course of construction of modern townhouses, private cottages and other low-rise buildings stud walls are erected with an increasing frequency. These structures contain a wooden or metal base with inner or outer cladding. The free space inside is filled with HOTROCK - light heat insulation material made of stone wool, which provides a frame with high heat and noise insulation properties. The light weight, which enables to save on erection of expensive massive bases and strong foundations, should be noted amongst basic advantages of the modern system. In addition, the structure can be easily and quickly assembled without making significant efforts and spending time. In the process of operation the frame systems are absolutely maintenance-friendly and are not subjected to any shrinkage in the course of time. For an external finish they usually use the vinyl siding, which perfectly copes with a protection function of the walls, sturdily preventing the impact of natural factors.
