General
Rigid insulation is not sensitive to moisture, as it is a closed cell structure the product does not absorb water.
Flat Roofing
With flat roofs there is always a risk that through condensation absorption of moisture could occur. This problem can be prevented by calculating the construction carefully well in advance. By using EcoTherm® insulation the chance of condensation absorption will be minimised.
Pitched Roofing
Snow or broken roofing tiles can lead to water leaking onto the breather membrane; EcoTherm® insulation does not absorb moisture or water which will easily drain straight to the gutter.
Cavity Wall
Since the 70’s architects have filled the cavity wall of existing houses. These applications often lead to serious moisture problems. Whilst we do not recommend prolonged exposure to moisture, EcoTherm® Eco-Cavity is the ideal solution for this problem.
