Framing board insulation suitable for internal walls
Under NCC 2022, 7-Star energy efficiency is required for new homes.
When building a new home or renovating an existing one, you may have encountered the term '7 Star Energy Rating'. Insulating the house with high-performing insulation is one of the easiest paths to achieve this rating. Among the various types of insulation available, rigid board insulation is gaining popularity in the residential industry due to its ability to be installed continuously. Continuous insulation offers long-term value, thermal performance, and comfort to your home by reducing thermal bridging.
Using Kooltherm can help achieve a 7+ Star Energy Rating for houses. Kingspan Kooltherm offers an extensive range of rigid thermoset phenolic insulation suitable for any roof, wall, or floor across many construction types. While higher R-value insulation helps thermal performance, it is also essential to ensure condensation risks are assessed, particularly in wall systems. Kingspan Thermakraft provides a range of building wraps and sarking that helps mitigate the risk of condensation in residential structures.
