Puistisolatsioon

Puistisolatsioon is a method of thermal insulation where loose insulating material is blown into enclosed spaces. This technique is commonly used in attics, walls, and floors of buildings to improve energy efficiency and comfort. The materials used for puistisolatsioon are typically fibrous or granular, such as mineral wool, cellulose fibers, or expanded polystyrene beads.

The application process involves specialized blowing machines that transport the insulating material through hoses to the desired location. The material compacts to fill all voids and cavities, creating a seamless thermal barrier. This ability to conform to irregular shapes is a key advantage, as it minimizes air leakage and thermal bridging, which are common issues with traditional insulation methods.

Puistisolatsioon offers several benefits. It significantly reduces heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, leading to lower energy bills and a more comfortable indoor environment. The materials used are often non-combustible and can contribute to fire safety. Furthermore, some puistisolatsioon materials, like cellulose, are made from recycled content, making it an environmentally friendly option. The installation process is generally quick and efficient, especially for retrofitting existing buildings. However, proper installation by trained professionals is crucial to ensure optimal performance and prevent potential issues such as settling or moisture build-up.
