  2. Weatherization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weatherization

    Installing roofing, building wrap, siding, flashing, skylights or solar tubes and making sure they are in good condition on an existing building. Installing insulation in walls, floors, and ceilings, around ducts and pipes, around water heaters, and near the foundation and sill. Installing storm doors and storm windows.

  3. External wall insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_wall_insulation

    External wall insulation systems generally comprise firstly an insulation layer (an element which helps to achieve the requisite thermal performance); and secondly,a protected weatherproof finish (usually a render, although brick slips, [3] tiles, and decorative boards can also be used). Insulating render can also be an advantage in certain ...

  4. Plenum space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plenum_space

    Vertical section through a commercial building using HVAC plenum instead of airspace plenum. When both the supply and return ducts are constructed in this manner, it is possible to insulate the ducts and the dropped ceiling so that the upper airspace is not heated or cooled, increasing energy efficiency. This is a fully enclosed plenum.

  5. Spray foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_foam

    Spray foam insulation extruding from a duct. Spray foam (expanding foam in the UK) is a chemical product created by a chemical reaction of two component parts, commonly referred to as side A and side B. [1] Side A contains very reactive chemicals known as isocyanate.

  6. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

    A building site for a row of riverside apartment blocks in Cambridge. The buildings are being constructed using a systems build with a steel frame and various prefabricated components. The blue plastic on the central building is the vapour barrier for the thermal wall insulation before the exterior cladding has been fixed.

  7. Building insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation

    Bulk insulators block conductive heat transfer and convective flow either into or out of a building. Air is a very poor conductor of heat and therefore makes a good insulator. Insulation to resist conductive heat transfer uses air spaces between fibers, inside foam or plastic bubbles and in building cavities like the attic.
