Building Insulation Specialists

IFI INSULATION SOLUTIONS HAVE A NUMBER OF BENEFITS:• THERMAL PERFORMANCE Improve temperature control in your

home, office or commercial building.

• ACOUSTICAL CONTROL IFI insulation forms a sound barrier by

sealing off potential sound transmission points absorbing sound energy and reverberations.

• FIRE RETARDANT IFI insulation is non-combustible and

will not allow heat to penetrate through it.

• CORROSION INHIBITOR

• PEST CONTROL IFI insulation contains natural minerals

which deters pests.

• MOLD RESISTANT The insulation forms a thermal barrier

that reduces the likelihood of moisture development and maintains maximum thermal efficiency.

• LONG TERM COST SAVINGS Insulation is one of the fastest and most

cost effective ways to reduce energy waste make your home more comfortable year-round.

• ENERGY EFFICIENCY The addition of insulation reduces the

need for heating or cooling.

• LIGHTWEIGHT

• EASY TO INSTALL

Where to insulate?Adding insulation in the areas of:

1. Attic2. Walls3. Floors4. Basement5. Crawlspace

May be the best way to improve the energy efficiency and thermal properties of your home, office or commercial building.

IFI offers a range of different insulation solutions which can be installed to achieve the required R Value (R Value = Resistance value—a higher R-value equals better insulation)

Should I insulate my home?You should insulate your home when:

• You have an older home without insulation. Homes without insulation can use up to 60% more energy per square foot than those with insulation.

• You are uncomfortably hot in the warmer months or cold in the cooler months—adding insulation creates a more uniform temperature and increases comfort.

• You are building a new home or renovating your current home.

• You pay high energy bills.

• You are bothered by noise—insulation can absorb sound.

LOOSE FILL CELLULOSE INSULATIONLoose fill insulation is a product used for insulating ceiling cavities. It is suitable for newly constructed buildings as well as existing structures. The product has good thermal properties which help to moderate the temperature of the building, can assist with acoustic control, is fire retardant, and has pest and mold control properties.

STABILIZED CELLULOSE INSULATIONStabilised cellulose insulation can be installed into the roof cavities of most properties offering an environmentally friendly option for insulating. Additionally, for new houses, the insulation can be installed into the wall cavities before the plaster or drywall is installed. This insulation has great thermal and acoustic properties saving homeowners money on heating and cooling, and is also resistant to pests and mould as well as being fire retardant. The dense nature of this insulation makes it more efficient than traditional fibreglass insulation. Because the stabilized cellulose insulation is applied with a solution the insulation ‘sets’ and is no longer a loose product and acts as custom made insulation batts.

WET SPRAY CELLULOSE INSULATIONWet spray exposed insulation is suitable for a range of building types including commercial, industrial and residential. It is able to be sprayed directly onto a number of surfaces including metal, concrete, wood, and plaster. This insulation type can be applied at a range of thicknesses ranging from 16mm to 90mm, allowing the required R-value to be achieved and more optimum thermal and acoustic control. Additionally, an advantage of this particular insulation is that in large industrial buildings it can allow for a better seal against air infiltration by sealing voids and other structural irregularities. Because of the specific application process which produces a seamless finish, maximum thermal efficiency is reached which ultimately saves money on heating and cooling costs. Wet spray cellulose is applied from 16mm thick; and can be applied up to 90mm when required.

Applications for wet spray cellulose insulation include:• Warehouses• Factories• Auditoriums• Theaters• Churches• Pubs• Restaurants• Nightclubs• Multi-storey car parking facilities

DENSE PACK CELLULOSE INSULATIONDense pack cellulose insulation is appropriate for existing houses where insulation needs to be retrofitted. The insulation is installed into the existing wall cavities by making a small hole in the plaster and using a hose to blow in the cellulose fibre. The insulation is packed down tightly so that it fills the entire wall cavity creating a seal between the inside and outside of the house. This allows for better temperature control making it more efficient to heat and cool the building and also blocks the amount of sound which can travel into and out of the building.

The benefit of dense pack insulation is that it allows for insulation to be installed in existing structures without removing interior drywall or exterior cladding to gain access to the stud cavities.

COMFORTThe comfort and easy handling during the installation comes from the softer new generation of glass mineral wool. Less DUSTY. Less ITCHY.

ECOLOGICALEco-wool is made from up to 80% glass cullets and locally sourced raw material helping to improve sustainability and address environmental concerns.

ENHANCED PERFORMANCEEco-wool has been engineered to provide the highest level of thermal, acoustic and fire safety performance for building occupants to achieve the level of indoor comfort and safety deserved.

ERGONOMICALLY FRIENDLYEco-wool is lightweight making it easy to handle, transport, lift and install.

Choose ecowool for your wall insulation needs and take advantage of the benefits:

ECO-WOOL INSULATION BATTSEco-wool batts are a light weight and sound absorbent insulation solution. The product is an eco-friendly alternative and is formaldehyde free, perfect for allergy suffers.

This product will improve thermal performance in addition to excellent sound absorption properties. The insulation is installed by cutting to shape and placing in the open wall cavities or roof cavity.

If required, IFI can tailor make Eco-wool batts or blankets to a customers desired size.
