Insulation SuperQuilt earns Agrement Approval
The effectiveness of SuperQuilt, part of the YBS range, as a single layer insulation solution for use beneath pitched roof rafters, in either new-build or refurbishment situations has been underlined by the award of a coveted BBA Certificate. Agrement Certificate 17/5388 explains in detail how the already widely specified, multi-layer foil insulation can be used to retain energy within attic or habitable loft spaces: cutting fuel bills, improving comfort levels for building occupants and adding value. The Certification comes after prolonged evaluation by the British Board of Agrement and covers such considerations as related Building Regulation matters.

The premium performance of the Kingspan Kooltherm K108 Cavity Wall Board has led to its specification on a new residential development in Hendy, Swansea, helping the project to meet its thermal performance requirements with a slim construction build up. Part of Kingspan’s new Kooltherm K100 range, Kingspan K108 Cavity Board features a fibre-free phenolic core with an outstanding thermal conductivity of 0.018 W/m.K. This excellent performance enables housebuilders to meet or exceed target external wall U-values, without encroaching on living space or moving away from preferred cavity sizes.

New high-performance recessed ceiling mounted PIR presence detectors from Timeguard have been designed with installers in mind: they are easy to fit, easy to set up and easy to adjust. Just connect the wiring box, slip it through the ceiling aperture, and plug in the detector using its RJ11 connector before spring clipping into the ceiling. Even better, you can plug in up to five slave detectors, all controlled from a single master. You only need to set up once at the master, and of course, a master/slave set up will save you money as well. It’s a solution that’s ideal for corridors or large areas. On top of that, these new detectors have really accessible controls.

Kingspan Insulation has released a new technical bulletin and RIBA approved CPD article, designed to support enhanced detailing. The documents explore the effects of linear thermal bridging around openings in the building envelope, and present new research on the subject, allowing specifiers to use Kingspan Kooltherm Cavity Closer as a premium performance, one-size-fits-most solution. The CPD article and technical bulletin are based on a thermal modelling study of jamb details by BRE Scotland. The study covers a variety of cavity wall constructions closed using Kingspan Kooltherm Cavity Closer.
