HEATING VENTILATION & SERVICES; INSULATION; INTERIORS 69 Isover’s new insulation solution Metac © Turnbull & Co Ltd
A development of four executive bungalows in the rural village of South Rauceby has recently benefitted from the installation of Isover’s pitched roof insulation solution Metac, which complemented the semi- vaulted ceiling design and helped to reduce time and labour costs on site. Metac is a high-performance
glass mineral wool insulation engineered with both thermal performance and acoustics in mind, reducing unwelcome external noise by 49 dB (RW). Manufactured from up to 80 per cent recycled glass it is also non-combustible and achieves an A1 Euroclass fire rating, the best attainable. As well as providing high-quality comfort for the future homeowners, Metac presents many benefits to the installer too, saving both time and labour on site.

Vent-Axia has welcomed the draft guidance ‘Indoor Air Quality at Home’ published by National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE). The consultation document, which was published on Friday 28 June 2019, urges both local authorities and the public to be aware of the air quality in their homes to reduce exposure to indoor pollu- tants and so help protect their health. Within the guidance it advises people to ensure rooms are well ventilated by
extractor fans or by opening windows when cooking, drying clothes inside, using household sprays or solvents and paints. Within the draft guidance the document confirms the critical role ventilation plays in removing potential pollutants and improving indoor air quality.

Two of Mapei’s complete external wall insulation and protective coating systems have been specified and installed on an impressive house renovation on the coast of Downderry in Cornwall. Mapei provided RGB Supplies with a specification for installers F. D. Hall & Son Ltd., which required delivering a uniform finish across two very different substrates. To provide thermal benefits and to align the original timber frame substrate, Mapetherm EPS Plus insulation board, with Mapetherm AR1 GG insulation adhesive and smoothing render reinforced with Mapetherm Net was used over the existing masonry construction. A new timber framed structure was added to the building and finished with a Mapetherm Thin Coat render only system; consisting of Mapetherm AR1 GG with reinforcing mesh (Mapetherm Net) and Mapetherm Plus System, which incorporates Silancolor Base Coat and Silancolor Tonachino Plus 1.2mm applied to a cement board. To provide a uniform finish, both systems were completed using Mapei’s protective and decorative coatings, Silancolor Base Coat and Silancolor Tonachino Plus 1.2mm, the ideal solution for a structure exposed to the extreme elements of a coastal location. Mapei’s standard White, an off-white colour, was selected to complement the geographical setting along the coastal road.
