To date, construction has become one of the most important sectors of the economy. Recently, ventilated facades have become increasingly popular.
The main errors of installation of ventilated facades occur when designing and installing facade panels.
When designing, as a rule, the curvature of the working surface of the facade panels is most often calculated.
Another mistake is the limitation of the length of the protrusion of the mounting brackets, which are mounted for guides for the facade, which can lead to the following consequences:
The air circulation is worsening behind the surface of the facade, which will entail excessive accumulation of moisture in the insulation. This, in turn, leads to a deterioration in thermal insulation properties. The most common reason for this is the hydraulic protection film fit out of the seal due to the entry into the guides. As a result, this film will quickly become unusable due to constant fluctuations between the facade panel and the seal that occurs when air moves in a small air gap. It must be taken into account that the surface of the walls is uneven and, accordingly, it is necessary to leave a supply for the air clearance;
Thermal insulation worsens due to an increase in the concentration of elements in the insulation. Subsequently, the thermal insulation properties of the material will deteriorate, which will lead to a violation of heat transfer;
Complete disappearance of the air gap.
Errors of designing structures of ventilated facades are poorly noticeable in regions with warm climate and dry air. But errors in the design of facade systems in Russia will not be beneficial. As a result, you will have to spend more effort on heating your housing.
Another common mistake is too much air gap between the insulation and the facade system. In this case, there is too much air in space behind facade panels. Therefore, the insulation is not able to fully maintain heat.
We hope these tips will help to avoid the design errors of ventilated facades and maintain heat and comfort in the room.
