Frequently Asked Questions:
How do I effectively insulate pitched roofs using Recticel Eurothane® GP?
Recticel Eurothane® GP PIR insulation boards are a top choice for professional installers due to their lightweight, easy-to-install nature, and capability for efficient on-site cutting. For insulating pitched roofs, position the boards with their long edges parallel to the rafters, ensuring they are tightly butted together in a brick-bond pattern for optimal thermal efficiency. Support all board joints running from eaves to ridge with rafters, and secure boards temporarily with nails before proceeding to counter battening.
What's the best approach to insulate framed walls with Recticel Eurothane® GP?
When insulating framed walls, fit Recticel Eurothane® GP PIR boards between the wall battens in a snug, brick-bond arrangement. This method ensures maximum insulation coverage and thermal efficiency, making it an excellent choice for enhancing the energy performance of framed walls.
How can I insulate floors using Recticel Eurothane® GP PIR boards?
For floor insulation, lay the Recticel Eurothane® GP PIR boards in a tightly butted brick-bond pattern. If your insulation project requires two layers for the desired thickness, stagger the board joints with the thicker layer placed on the exterior. This technique ensures a uniform and efficient thermal barrier across your floors.
Is Recticel Eurothane® GP PIR Insulation suitable for underfloor heating systems?
Yes, Recticel Eurothane® GP PIR insulation boards are fully compatible with underfloor heating systems. Their excellent thermal conductivity ensures a warm and efficient heating solution, making them an ideal choice for modern, energy-efficient homes.
What is the thermal conductivity of Recticel Eurothane® GP PIR Insulation?
The thermal conductivity of Recticel Eurothane® GP PIR insulation across all thicknesses is consistently low at 0.022 W/m.K, indicating high thermal efficiency and making it a superior insulation solution for a variety of applications.
Where is Recticel Eurothane® GP manufactured?
