Material that retards or prevents the
progressionor transmission
of electricity, heat,moisture, shock, or
sound from one item or
medium to another is called
insulation.

TYPES OF ROOF INSULATION:TYPES OF ROOF INSULATION:
There are several different types of
roof insulation
BATT OR BLANKET INSULATION:BATT OR BLANKET INSULATION:
ADVANTAGESADVANTAGES
Straightforward
Use recycled glass or sheep’s wool
Good for insulating accessible
spaces
DISADVANTAGES:DISADVANTAGES:
Sheep’s wool is a more expensive
and is more irritative
18. ROOF AND WALL INSULATION
SHEET ROOF INSULATION:SHEET ROOF INSULATION:
ADVANTAGES:ADVANTAGES:
Greener insulation options include cork
Excellent for insulating roof
conversions
High insulating value per unit
thickness.
DIS ADVANTAGES:DIS ADVANTAGES:
Some boards come with their own
system of attachment.
Synthetic sheet insulation materials
use large amounts of Energy.
19. ROOF AND WALL INSULATION
BLOWN-FIBRE ROOF INSULATION:BLOWN-FIBRE ROOF INSULATION:
ADVANTAGESADVANTAGES
Quick and easy to install
Ideal for insulating areas where access
is difficult.
Light and convenient to handle and cut.
DIS ADVANTAGESDIS ADVANTAGES
• Can be more expensive than other
types of roofs insulation.
• Not recommended for insulating
draughty roofs.
20. ROOF AND WALL INSULATION
Blanket insulation comes in roles and is fairly
easy to install in your roof yourself
21. ROOF AND WALL INSULATION

• ADVANTAGES OF ROOF INSULATION:ADVANTAGES OF ROOF INSULATION:
• Reduce gas & electricity bills
• Reduce your home's carbon
footprint
• Keep your house warmer in
winter
• Keep your house cooler in
summer
• Prevent internal condensation
• Improve your
home's energy efficiency rating
• Reduce noise from outside (e.g.
traffic)

INSULATION:INSULATION:
The principle disadvantage
of adding insulation is do
finish up losing space.
Minimize the number of space that
you've got.
Some styles of insulation,
particularly cheaper kinds that is
self-laid, could be irritating to skin,
and even result in allergies or
worsen conditions such as asthma

CONCLUSION:CONCLUSION:
Walls should have a U-value
(THERMAL TRANSMITTANT) of less than
0.30 W/m2K to meet
Building Regulations
Around 120mm of insulation will
usually achieve by this.
Insulating external walls can
save on average between
£450 and £500 a year on
heating costs
