The issue of roof insulation during its arrangement must always be approached with all responsibility. A competent selection of heater will help not only avoid heat losses, but in general will increase the service life of the building.
All roofs by their types can be divided into flat and pitched, but, besides this, there are roofs that are operated and which are not operated. It is these factors that are determining when choosing a warming material for the roof, since largely affect the state of the roof itself and the requirements for it.
Glass wool can be called one of the most affordable methods for warming the roof, although this method of insulation has its drawbacks and flaws. You can start with the fact that in ecological purity of glass wool is inferior to many materials, it slides from vertical or sloping surfaces and is easily deformed. From this we can conclude that if for a flat roof the use of glass wool is permissible, then for inclined roofs it will not work.
Although on flat roofs, its use is fraught with the fact that it is remembered, and for its high -quality installation, the construction of additional structures is required. In addition, ordinary glass wool absorbs moisture, which for the material that should insulate the roof is a very serious drawback.
Unlike glass wools, which they try to use less and less today, modern staple fiber -based insulation materials are much more preferable. Such heater is not hygroscopic, environmentally friendly, and are also safe in contact for humans. Of course, iron doors or cracks in the walls are not insulated with such materials, but for the roof they will fit quite.
Mineral water heaters can be attributed to another group of insulation materials. As a rule, such materials are produced in plates. Receive such heater from basalt breeds by processing at high temperatures. Mineral wool produced in this way is pressed into plates that do not lose their shape and have all the necessary properties and qualities. Low heat conductivity and the ability to repel moisture are determining properties for such insulation.
The positive properties of such insulation plates include their resistance to fire. And due to the fact that such plates can be cut on the spot according to the necessary sizes, the process of warming the roof is greatly simplified. Such plates can have varying degrees of rigidity, which makes it possible to use their rational use on roofs of various types. When laying plates of this type, you should take care that voids do not form between them.
