Protection of the walls of the house from external influences

Thermal panels are good not only for preserving heat: this additional layer reliably protects the walls from the destructive influence of natural phenomena, and also protects them from breeding microorganisms. Let us examine in more detail how thermal panels protect walls, and how they qualitatively differ from other types of insulation.

How thermal panels protect the walls of a house

  • The foam base practically does not allow moisture to pass through, so the walls are not afraid of rainfall, and, as a result, the fungus.
  • As a heat insulator, expanded polystyrene not only does not release home heat, but also does not allow street cold to get to the wall. Thermal insulation and moisture resistance of thermal panels will not allow the walls to freeze and thaw all with the same mold. This will protect the health of the owners of the house or apartment, and also protect the structure from destruction.
  • Clinker tile, in turn, protects the polystyrene plate from the scorching sun, moisture and mechanical stress. Clay, porcelain stoneware and limestone-shell rock, of which the decoration is made, are not afraid of any forces of nature.

As a result, a moisture-proof and heat-insulating layer in combination with durable natural materials forms the highest quality protection for walls.

Protective properties of the materials from which the facade tile is made

The main materials from which the facade tiles for thermal panels are made are clinker and porcelain stoneware. It is worth noting that thermal panels with porcelain tiles in the market for insulation of houses are produced only by the company “Termodom”

Clinker

Clinker in its protective properties is very similar to porcelain. It has a diverse surface: it can be unprocessed, rough or glazed. For wall (facade) clinker, the following protective properties are important:

  • Water absorption. After manufacturing, the tile has minimal water absorption due to the finely porous structure.
  • Durability. This property is determined by frost resistance. The structure makes the tile resistant to frost. Clinker tiles can withstand up to 300 freezing and thawing cycles.
  • Density The quality of the wall clinker is not less than 1.9 kg / dm 3
  • Chemical resistance. This property is determined by alkali resistance (75-80%) and acid resistance (more than 97.5%).
  • Thermal conductivity. It is 0.9-1.2 watts.
  • Dense structure. Allows to withstand mechanical damage. Clinker does not fade in the sun, it is resistant to ultraviolet rays.

On the surface of the clinker tile, no efflorescences protrude, fungi and mold do not form.

Porcelain Tiles

As a result of pressing under high pressure, porcelain tile receives a number of the following properties:

  • High hardness;
  • Density. There are no voids in the material. Due to this, the weight of these facade tiles is greater than that of ceramics (clinker);
  • Resistance to abrasive particles;
  • Wear resistance;
  • Chemical inertness. Resistance to chemicals, Tiles can be looked after with any cleaning agents;
  • Preservation of appearance for decades;
  • Lack of water absorption. Unlike ceramics, this porcelain tile does not absorb moisture;
  • High temperature resistance;
  • Porcelain tile does not collapse and does not freeze. Thermal panels with porcelain stoneware tiles are excellent for warming in the northern regions.

In appearance, porcelain tile resembles ceramics, natural marble, stone. It is almost impossible to distinguish from natural material.

It should be especially noted that the company “TERMODOM” – the only one in the Ukrainian market that produces thermal panels from porcelain tiles. The supplier of tiles for the company is the domestic company Golden Tile, the market leader in the production of ceramic granite tiles.

How other heaters protect the facade

polystyrene foam

This is the only way to get a better look at your business. If you have a flat screen, you will be able to do this, but this will be possible if you do not want to do this. If you have a license application, you will need to send a message to the client, which is not available for the client.

This can be plastering, pasting with facing tiles or hanging siding. All three options are widely used, but plaster can crack over time, and the most common vinyl siding is a rather brittle material, weakly resistant to mechanical stress.

extruded polystyrene foam

Extruded polystyrene foam is ideal for protecting the foundation. The use of material for facade cladding is also possible, however, with insufficient ventilation of the housing, the EPSS will protect the walls from the outside, but spoil them from the inside. An impermeable insulation will lead to the accumulation of condensate and the associated problems caused by dampness.

Since extruded polystyrene foamhas a high density (from 50 density and higher), it interacts poorly with adhesive mixtures – acrylic, polyurethane, cement-based adhesives. As a result, the facades of extruded polystyrene foam are short-lived, serve no more than 5 years and are prone to such phenomena as bloating, peeling and shedding of the finish.

Mineral and stone wool

Some types of stone wool are recognized as non-combustible, therefore, properly selected fibrous insulation can protect walls even from the spread of fire. But, with regard to external influences, mineral wool itself is quite afraid of dampness and precipitation, and requires more serious protection during installation than polystyrene.

If dampness enters the mineral wool, it will itself become a source of danger to the walls. Moisture will condense and linger in the fibers, “living creatures” will appear in them, flowing smoothly onto the structure.

Only dense basalt wool slabs with a laid vapor barrier and finish will protect the wall qualitatively, but even with time they can deteriorate their properties under the influence of humidity.

Polyurethane foam

Polyurethane foam is sprayed onto the facades with a continuous carpet and adheres tightly to the surface – due to this, the material protects the walls well from external influences. But only if it is a closed-cell polyurethane foam: if it is an open-cell polyurethane foam, it absorbs moisture and therefore requires additional waterproofing. In any case, polyurethane foam, like polystyrene foam, requires additional decoration to protect it from the sun, but at the same time it costs several times more.

The advantage of the material – uniform spraying – can turn into a disadvantage, if the installation conditions were not met, then you will have to dismantle the foam.
When heated, polyurethane foam releases phenol – an extremely hazardous substance for health. Therefore, it cannot be considered environmentally friendly material.

We will be extremely honest: if the technology is not followed, any insulation, including clinker thermal panels, can poorly protect the walls from external influences.

However, in comparison with other types of thermal insulation, thermal panels carry the least risks and offer the simplest and most effective protection for your home.
