Energetic roof restoration – roof isolation
To save actually heating energy, an energetic roof restoration is recommended.
Just older houses often show no heat insulation corresponding to the today’s standard and aerial density. Out of this not seldom huge heating costs and a not optimum space climate result in the living rooms of the house. Also it can come with a not carefully explained roof insulation to train air in the rooms of the house what also affects very negatively the residential climate. Besides, the environment is coloaded by a roof enough abgedämmtes not, because the heating energy consumption from the ecological position is not optimum looked and mostly too high.
With a heat insulation of the roof one also speaks of an energetic roof renovation. With an energetic roof renovation very modern insulating materials are introduced straight in the roof to eliminate, perhaps, appearing warmer leaders and train air. This not always develops just with very winding roofs simply, because just these windings show not seldom heat conductor which transport the heating warmth unintentionally outwardly. Also joints and tears which can appear just with older roof structures must become with the energetic roof renovation absolutely isolated.
Different possibilities are available to the house-owner for the energetic roof renovation. On this occasion, are found, for example, the interrafter insulation and the over rafter isolation. With the interrafter insulation the insulating material, as the name already means, is introduced between the rafters and, in addition, an airtight foil is stuck as a steam barrier on and between the rafters. The insulating material shows as a rule a thickness which of the rafter height corresponds.
The over rafter isolation resembles from the approach of the interrafter insulation, becomes, however, with the over rafter isolation before the bringing in of the insulating material a formwork which serves the insulating material as a load-bearing layer on which rafter mounts. For this a structural engineer should be pulled absolutely advises and, besides, with the building control office an approval for a possible ridge rise be caught up.
