In our previous article we saw a useful presentation on the burning, for our time, the subject ofEnergy -saving in relation to building materials. In this month's article we will see the sequel and analyze ordinary problems related toenergy savingAnd we will give modern and practical solutions.
Thermal insulation and waterproofing - waterproofing of the roof of our building (roof insulation).
In most buildings in our country, especially in older buildings, on their terraces (roofs) there is noreliable thermal insulation. Many buildings in our country also suffer seriously because they have significant waterproofing problems.
Their roofs (their terraces) are at a large percentage without anywaterproofingOr in some buildings there is a rough, incomplete or damaged waterproofing.
From the damage caused by the aging of buildings, as well as earthquakes, etc., the problems in the waterproofing grow, multiply and expand.
Our business has all thereliable thermal insulation materialsrequired as well as a wide variety of modern waterproofing - sealants.
We also have all the certified materials eligible and subsidized by T to be readyTHE SAVING - AUTOMATIC PROGRAM, for the insulation of existing buildings. We work with experienced and technically well -trained craftsmen, who successfully and successfully complete the work of both thermal insulation and the waterproofing - waterproofing of the roof (terrace) of your building.
So we can offer you comprehensive suggestions and reliable solutions.
Our materials have been successfully tested in many years, in many works both inAigio, Patras, Kalavryta, Akrata, Diakopto,as in many lowlands and mountainous spots of the Prefecture of Achaia and more generally of southwestern Greece.

External thermal insulation of buildings (thermal facade)
She is now known to everyone, thegreat energy savingsresulting from the application ofexternal thermal insulation systemof the shell of the building, both in existing buildings and in newly emerging buildings.
With the rigorous selection of appropriate quality materials and their proper application and placement, it is achievedEnergy saving up to 60%. At the same time, effective waterproofing (waterproofing) of the building as well as aesthetic upgrading.
In existing houses, the external thermal insulation system (thermal facade) is eligible and subsidized byprogram SAVE-AUTONOMO.
Our business has all the appropriate quality materials for the application ofexternal thermal insulation system. We work with specialized workshops with years of experience. The heat facade materials in our business are ready -made and readily available.
We have the appropriate materials for application to each existing surface (wall, concrete, brick, cement board, glass board, external plates, etc.) with all the certifications required.
The materials used are:
- Repair mortars - cement - ready plaster

Internal interventions in existing buildings
There can generally be many small or larger interventions inside buildings and especially housing with many positive results and valuable energy savings such as:
Thermal insulation of suspended ceilings made of woodwork (chipboard or Hardbord) or with a wooden ramot
With the proper use, laying and application of mineral wool or stone wool or polystyrene in the suspended ceiling, that is, above the ceiling, we immediately achieve positive results for the modern and successful thermal insulation of our existing suspended ceiling at no cost.
The thermal insulation of the suspended ceilings is expense eligible and subsidized by the SAVING-Autonomous program.
The use of drywall as a final outer surface, both in wall linings inside the building as well as for the construction of new intermediate separations, as well as in new suspended, investment and more.
OR plasterboardAlways combined with the use of mineral wool or stone wool, it offers an effective renovation solution that clearly upgrades the spaces applied inside the buildings.
That is why the use of drywall is constantly expanding.
At the same time, this system, significantly, reduces the energy we consume because of the valuable energy savings resulting from the application of thermal insulation that this solution offers.
That is, the combined use of drywall and thermal insulation is an effective solution that provides immediate serious energy savings at reasonable construction costs.
Construction of a ceiling with the use of thermal insulation material in two -storey houses with solid wooden floor.
In two-story houses withsolid wood floor, which is mounted on wooden beams, in the middle of floors, without any thermal insulation, the ground floor ceiling is recommended to make a suspended ceiling with the use of thermal insulation material such asmineral wool, stagger, so as to limit thermal loss from one floor to another floor.
Με τον τρόπο αυτό, προκύπτει η δυνατότητα χρησιμοποίησης αυτόνομα του κάθε ορόφου, χωρίς να υπάρχουν ψυχρές ζώνες που να επηρεάζουν δυσμενώς την θέρμανση στους χρησιμοποιημένους χώρους. Έτσι περιορίζονται οι απώλειες, οπότε δεν απαιτείται επιπλέον κατανάλωση ενέργειας πέραν από αυτή που πραγματικά χρειάζεται για τη θέρμανση ή τη ψύξη μόνο των χρησιμοποιημένων χώρων.
Depending on the material used, we can at the same time achieve remarkable sound insulation, which is necessary in modern homes.
Placeing flooring on our floors.
It is well known to everyone the nobility, the warmth and the warmth that really offer thewooden floors. In some renovation we are planning to do, we have to think positively about the choice of placementLaminate floor or semi -traded flooring, on the existing floors of tiles, marbles or mosaics, old marble floors etc.
It is recognized over time since antiquity, the thermal insulation value of wood. In addition to the excellent aesthetic effect it offers and the overall upgrade of the space placed. In addition, our floor provides warmth and energy saving.
Thermal insulation of roofs that, when manufactured on the plate of the building, had no thermal insulation materials.
In many existing roofs that had been built years ago and on the final plate of the building had then been made during their construction, no thermal insulation, it is necessary to place thermal insulation material in order to have a clearly improved energy savings.
There are many methods and interventions that can be made so that an old roof that was made years ago without insulation (so it has high heat loss), to becomemodern and with sufficient thermal insulation,so that there is a very serious energy cost savings.
Depending on the type of roof, the way it is constructed, the roof plan and the condition in which it is, due to the years that have elapsed since its construction, it is possible to place thermal insulation material that may be alternatively:
- XPS extruded polystyrene
- inflated polystyrene Graphite EPS
- inflated polystyrene white EPS
- stone wool in sheets or rolls
- mineral wool in plates or rolls
Under theexisting tile roof, the is placedsuitable thermal insulation materialon the plate of the building. The welding of the thermal insulation material should be done on the surface of the plate, using a special polystyrene welding glue and with the simultaneous use of some special fastening plugs, if required.
The thermal insulation material is placed with a continuous laying on the surface of the plate, without gaps (sheets).
The thermal insulation material που χρησιμοποιείται στις περιπτώσεις αυτές, περιορίζει δραστικά τις θερμικές απώλειες της στέγης. Κατά την τοποθέτηση του θερμομονωτικού υλικού επάνω στην πλάκα, στα σημεία που υπάρχουν τα κατακόρυφα ξύλα ή τα σίδερα του σκελετού της στέγης, το θερμομονωτικό ύλικό κόβεται με όση μεγαλύτερη ακρίβεια γίνεται.
Εκεί που εφάπτεται το θερμομονωτικό υλικό με άλλα υλικά της στέγης και προς αποφυγή ύπαρξης θερμογέφυρας, στο μικρό κενό που θα προκύψει, χρησιμοποιούμε αφρό πολυουρεθάνης ή άλλο κατάλληλο σφαγιστικό προϊόν. Με τον τρόπο αυτό, σφραγίζονται όσο το δυνατόν καλύτερα τα τυχόν κενά που προέκυψαν μεταξύ του θερμομονωτικού υλικού και των κάθετων στοιχείων της στέγης.
Thermal insulation of an existing roof is eligible expense from theSAVE – INDEPENDENT programand subsidized.
