The U-value of ThermaCote is often commented upon as “too good to be true for a 1mm application”, but when you understand how the product works and the advanced technology behind it you will see it is absolutely true! . Here’s why: Innovative Use of Reflective Technology ThermaCote doesn’t rely solely on traditional insulation methods […]
Let’s compare ThermaCote applied at a thickness of 1 mm to a traditional insulation material that is typically 100 mm (10 cm) thick, which is a common thickness for fibreglass, foam panels, or other conventional insulation in walls. To calculate how much thinner ThermaCote is, we can use the formula: So, a 1 mm layer […]
ThermaCote is significantly thinner than traditional insulation products because it leverages advanced technology to provide thermal protection without the bulk. A good way to understand this is by comparing it to how ski clothing has evolved since the 1980s. Back in the ’80s, ski jackets and trousers were thick, bulky, and filled with heavy layers […]
Using ThermaCote to insulate your home is like wrapping it in an emergency foil blanket to keep heat in because they both function in a similar way when it comes to heat retention: 1. Reflecting Heat Back: Just like an emergency foil blanket reflects your body heat back toward you to prevent warmth from escaping, […]
If you have a limited budget and can’t consider applying ThermaCote everywhere initially inside your property, consider creating one particularly warm room using ThermaCote by strategically applying the product to maximize its insulating and heat-reflective properties. Here’s a step-by-step guide to achieve this: 1. Choose the Room: Determine which room you want to be your […]
Architects should consider recommending ThermaCote for several compelling reasons: Energy Efficiency: ThermaCote’s thermal barrier properties help improve a building’s energy efficiency by reflecting heat away in the summer and retaining heat during the winter. This can lead to significant reductions in heating and cooling costs, aligning with the increasing emphasis on energy-efficient building design. Sustainability: […]
ThermaCote is important to providers of student accommodation primarily due to its energy efficiency and cost-saving benefits. Here’s why: Energy Efficiency: ThermaCote is a thermal barrier coating that helps to regulate indoor temperatures by reflecting heat. This means that during hot weather, it can reduce the amount of heat entering the building, and during cold […]
Just 1mm of ThermaCote demonstrates the effectiveness of the product of keeping heat in or keeping heat out, depending on your perspective!
ThermaCote® is an essential tool for energy consultants looking to deliver measurable energy savings and optimize building performance for their clients. This advanced ceramic coating in just 1mm provides superior thermal insulation, reducing energy consumption for heating and cooling by up to 40%. Its application not only enhances energy efficiency but also contributes to lowering […]
