50mm Unilin XO/PR Pitched Roof Insulation Board

Discover the 50mm Unilin XO/PR Pitched Roof Insulation solution designed for sloped roofs. This advanced system delivers excellent U-Values whilst preserving your home's usable space. Roofing is critical to building performance, and heat loss through poorly insulated roofs can be substantial. Installing 50mm XO/PR Pitched Roof Board significantly reduces heat escape and provides outstanding thermal bridging performance.

For complex roof designs with multiple slopes, the Warm Roof construction technique is highly effective. This method involves placing insulation above, or both above and between, the roof timbers. This keeps your building's structural elements at temperatures closer to your interior, reducing thermal stress and condensation problems.

What constitutes Thermal Bridging?

Thermal Bridging occurs in specific areas where insulation performance drops noticeably compared to the rest of the structure. These instances fall into 'Repeating,' 'Random,' or 'Non-Repeating' categories.

How is Thermal Bridging Quantified?

Thermal bridges are measured using linear thermal transmittance—expressed as PSI (Ψ) in W/mK. The SAP software program calculates a building's energy efficiency rating and includes thermal bridging assessment at junctions, shown as a 'Y-Value.'

Good detailing delivers benefits

1. Lower risk of condensation and mould at poorly detailed junctions.
2. More energy efficient building with reduced running costs.
3. Cost effective approach to achieving a low energy building.

Handling, Cutting, and Storage Guidelines

1. Place 50mm Unilin pitched roof insulation on a dry, level surface above ground, protecting it from weather exposure.
2. Polythene wrapping alone does not provide adequate outdoor protection.
3. Protect insulation during storage and throughout the building process.
4. Always use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when handling insulation materials.
