Almost the Ultimate in Insulation

Insulation on external walls:-

100mm Solid Polyurethane foam (PU)

Insulation on Roof :-

150mm Solid Polyurethane foam (PU)

Insulation on Internal Walls:-
75mm Solid Polyurethane foam (PU)

This is the insulation used in the refrigerators and

Cold-rooms.

Please see the illustration to the right to compare 40mm of Solid Polyurethane Foam (PU) with Brick and Concrete (or Block),

e-mode homes use 100mm or 150mm.

What thickness of Brick or Concrete (Blocks)

Would we need for the same insulation as 100mm of PU?

Brick 1237.5mm

Concrete ( Blocks) 6850 mm

High Insulation and Low Thermal Mass

If 6850 mm thick concrete walls were used to match the insulation of the 100 mm PU.
You would now have a very high Thermal Mass House.
This can work well in winter months in cold climates by trapping the heat that lands on the wall, and radiating it into the house during the night.

In summer this is not desirable.

Have you been in a home where at night it feels like a sauna?

And you go outside it is much more comfortable?
This is a house with bad insulation and high thermal mass.

This effect will be almost nill in your e-mode home.

We would not be who we are without our eco-friendly design, which is at the core of our strategy. We are constantly working to improve our offerings and expand upon our capabilities when it comes to design and production. Get in touch to learn more.

Thermal Break Technology

Homes designed for high insulation values use double or triple glazing, to introduce an air gap between the layers of glass. Glass is a poor insulator, but air with no circulation or movement is a good insulator.

The next step up is thermal break window frames.

Exclamation of thermal break

A thermal break or thermal barrier is an element of low thermal conductivity placed in an assembly to reduce or prevent the flow of thermal energy between conductive materials

Thermal Break Window Frames

Aluminum is a very poor insulator.

Thermal break aluminum window frames introduce a thermal break in the aluminum to stop the transfer of heat.

The darker material in the photos is the thermal break

We are unaware of any other manufacturer that uses Thermal Break Technology almost throughout the entire home.
