Quinn therm pir insulation board is a multi purpose high performance fibre free board with a rigid thermoset insulation core faced on both sides with a low emissivity composite foil.
Quinn therm pitched roof insulation.
This agrément certificate product sheet 1 relates to quinn therm qr pitched roof board a rigid polyisocyanurate pir foam board with composite foil facings for use as insulation installed above between and or below rafters in tiled or slated pitched roofs in horizontal ceilings dwarf walls and dormer cheeks in new and existing domestic and non domestic buildings.
Insulating a flat roof with timber deck insulated between and below joist.
Cold deck insulation rigid pir insulation boards such as quinn therm qr boards are generally the preferred roof insulation materials for flat roofs for a number of reasons.
A u value is a measure of the heat loss through a building element.
Quinn therm qr roof insulation boards are faced on both sides with a low emissivity composite foil facing which increases the insulation s thermal resistance to adjacent unventilated air space improving the roof s overall thermal performance.
Pir insulation boards such as quinn therm qr roof insulation are widely used for insulating pitched roofs using either the warm roof or cold roof methods thanks to their excellent thermal performance ease of handling and installation their strength and durability.
If the roof is a ventilated or unventilated system.
Construction make up of the roof including joist rafter info.
The boards are easy to handle and install and can help achieve excellent u values with just a single layer of insulation in the roof construction.
Quinn therm pir is suitable for new build and refurbishments projects in both domestic and commercial build.
The recommended roof insulation for this method of warm roof construction is quinn therm qr roof insulation which are lightweight and thermally efficient rigid pir roof insulation boards.
The low thermal conductivity of quinn therm boards maximises the performance of their insulation properties and enables low u values to be achieved.
The insulation boards are suitable for both commercial and domestic applications as well as new build and retrofit projects and are designed to be compatible with other essential products within a build.
High performance pir insulation quinn therm has an extensive range of pir insulation products with top performing thermal conductive properties for use in floors roofs and walls.
Pitched roof or flat roof.
The desired u value you want to achieve if known.
Excellent thermal performance can be achieved by using quinn therm qr pir insulation boards at ceiling level.
Insulating a pitched roof at ceiling level is a cost effective way of installing roof insulation where the attic space will not be used as a living area.
