WHY AN EXTERNAL INSULATION SYSTEM. Why put up an external thermal insulation composite system. Why choose the FASSATHERM® system. What does an "exterior insulation system" do? It preserves the micro-climate of a building, insulating the walls in a safe and continuous manner, even with the use of different materials. It is an actual thermal covering, which is able to ensure insulation against hot and cold, with tangible improvements to living comfort, it saves gas and/or electrical expenses to heat and/or cool down rooms, it reduces the impact that these forms of energy have on the environment....

BUILDINGS, STANDARDS AND NEEDS: guidelines for the insulation world. Energy certification: more value to buildings. Recent legislation has established the criteria, the conditions and the ways to improve the energy performance of buildings, defining the calculation method and the general criteria for energy certification. The objectives of certification are to define the energy consumption index of a building, in the interests of the user, and to connect the value of the building to its energy consumption, on the real estate market. Certification involves classifying buildings into Energy Classes;...

Thermal-hygrometric analysis: evaluate this well to make a better choice. The characteristics of exterior shells affect the thermal response of buildings. Unsuitable thermal insulation leads to the formation of "thermal bridges", especially in niches, radiators, external edges, architraves and cement pillars, etc., that increase heat dispersion. The objective of suitable thermal insulation is to eliminate the possible formation of thermal bridges keeping the temperatures of indoor surfaces as high as possible, to avoid the formation of condensation and mould indoors. The Fassatherm® system solves...

FASSATHERM®. A solution that offers many advantages. Another type of well-being. The Fassatherm® External Thermal Insulation Composite System it protects walls from thermal excursion: the mass of the masonry work stays warmer during the winter and cooler in the summer, generating improved living comfort. Also, with some types of insulating panels, it improves the acoustic insulation of the entire building. Protection and durability. Thermal excursions lead to the formation of stress on the outer surface of the structures: gaps and cracks, that promote water leaks and break up finishes and plasters....

For new and existing buildings. Not only can this exterior insulation be installed on new buildings, but it is also the most efficient system for intervening on existing buildings that require maintenance or restoration: in fact, in addition to revamping the appearance of the facades, it provides an insulation system that allows significant energy recovery and reduces heating and cooling expenses. Efficiency and savings. The good insulation of building shells significantly reduces thermal dispersion towards the exterior, which translates into considerable economic savings due to reduced heating...

To ensure your well-being we have gone to 3 lengths. The Fassatherm® External Thermal Insulation Composite System can be set up using three different solutions, which take into account the different needs of the building: a basic system, for insulation that fulfils the most common standards; a more evolved system, to obtain greater protection; a natural system, for those looking for an environmentally-friendly solution.
