Wärmedämmsysteme
Wärmedämmsysteme, often referred to as thermal insulation systems, are designed to reduce heat transfer between a building and its surroundings. This reduction in heat flow is crucial for maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures, minimizing energy consumption for heating and cooling, and preventing condensation issues. These systems work by using materials with low thermal conductivity, which resist the passage of heat. Commonly used insulating materials include mineral wool, polystyrene foam (EPS and XPS), polyurethane foam, and natural fibers like wood wool or cellulose.
The application of Wärmedämmsysteme can occur in various parts of a building. Exterior insulation is a very
The effectiveness of a Wärmedämmsystem is typically measured by its thermal transmittance value, known as the
