Insulex - Registered BER Assessors
A Building Energy Rating or BER is similar to the energy label on your fridge with a scale of A-G. A-rated homes are the most energy efficient and G the least efficient.
From 1st January 2009, a BER certificate will be compulsory for all homes being sold or rented. If you are buying or renting a new house or apartment now, you may already be entitled to a BER – so ask the seller/landlord or their agent for it.Along with the BER certificate, you will also receive an Advisory Report which will help you to identify how you might improve the energy performance of your home.
Thermal Imaging
Thermal Imaging is used to identify patterns of heat loss from your property that are invisible to the naked eye. Thermal imaging is conducted using a high tech infrared camera. This camera is able to determine the pattern of heat loss through the fabric of the building and heating systems.
Thermography allows the user to visualise and measure where heat/energy is an object, by using a specialised infrared camera. All objects emit radiation based on their temperatures, Thermography allows people to see their environment with or without visible illumination.
Airtightness Systems
Intelligent, high-performance vapour check with optimum protection
INTELLO gives structural systems a previously unachievable degree of protection from structural damage. Structural systems using the INTELLO high performance vapour check are optimally protected from structural damage, even under extreme external climatic conditions.
Humidity variable INTELLO provides previously unachievable protection in comparsion to conventional vapour barriers such as PE Films.
Insulex Attic Flooring & Attic Stairs
Converting attic space can provide a relatively low cost means of increasing useable space, relative to the more arduous options of extending, or moving to a larger building.
Your attic or loft can be converted into a useful storage area with the addition of attic flooring to provide a safe and sound surface for storage and for walking on.
Insulex Attic stairs can provide easy and safe access to your attic.
