Rehabilitation with THERMOCHIP® panels to improve the energy rating of a home

THERMOCHIP para rehabilitar una vivienda en A Coruña

Arehabilitationwith THERMOCHIP® and THERMOCHIP® DECO on the roof and façade it improves the energy rating of a home by one letter (from G to F). The insulation achieved through the installation of our wooden sandwich panels represents a saving of around 28% in heating demand.

The study was carried out in a house of about 110 square metres divided into 2 floors of 55 m2 each. Built 40 years ago and located in A Coruña, it has a diesel heating and electric DHW installation. This construction is part of the 60% of Spanish homes that were built without any safety regulations.energy efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to improve its insulation.

Installation of sandwich panels THERMOCHIP® on the roof of the home is an effective measure because it completely breaks the thermal bridges through which heat or air conditioning escapes. Thanks to the tongue and groove system of the sandwich panelTHERMOCHIP®, The four faces of the panel are fully assembled, facilitating the installation of the panels and guaranteeing thecontinuous insulation.

With an 8-centimeter extruded polystyrene insulating core and two wooden boards (one inside and one outside), the panel improves the complete energy efficiency of the home, passing the rating from G to F. With sandwich panels only on the roof, the savings in heating demand can be up to 10%, thus reducing CO2 emissions into the atmosphere by 7%.

THERMOCHIP® DECO TO INSULATE WALLS

THERMOCHIP DECO en la rehabilitación de una vivienda en A Coruña

The thermal insulation of the home improves if you also choose to install decorative panels on the façade. THERMOCHIP® DECO. With hardly any work, since they are placed inside, and thanks to a 3-centimeter insulating core, heating demand is reduced by 8% and CO2 emissions drop by 5.5%. THERMOCHIP® DECO It reduces assembly time by 75% compared to traditional systems and can be installed on any type of material, be it wood, metal or concrete.

For this home it has been decided to combine the installation of panels THERMOCHIP® on the cover and THERMOCHIP® DECO on the interior walls. The result is a saving in heating demand of 28% as well as a reduction in CO2 emissions of 17%. Therehabilitation of the house with wooden sandwich panelsIt is one of the best ways to obtain the efficiency certificate that every home needs with the new energy regulations.
