Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach out to us at info@spacefoil.co.uk if you cannot find an answer to your question.

What is Space Foil Insulation?

Space Foil Insulation is a high-performance reflective multifoil insulation designed for use in various applications, including roofs, walls, and floors. It helps improve energy efficiency by reflecting radiant heat, thereby maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures year-round

How does Space Foil Insulation compare to traditional insulation materials?

Unlike traditional insulation materials that primarily slow down heat transfer through conduction, Space Foil Insulation reflects radiant heat due to its reflective foil surfaces. This dual approach enhances thermal performance and can reduce the overall thickness of insulation required.

Is Space Foil Insulation certified for use in the UK?

Yes, Space Foil Insulation holds Agreement certification, ensuring it meets UK building regulations and standards for its intended applications.

Can Space Foil Insulation be used in combination with other insulation types?

Absolutely. Space Foil Insulation is versatile and can be used alongside other insulation materials to achieve desired thermal performance levels, depending on specific project requirements.

Does Space Foil Insulation act as a vapour control layer?

Yes, when installed with all overlaps taped and sealed, Space Foil Insulation functions as an insulating vapour control layer, eliminating the need for an additional vapour control layer in your construction.

What are the benefits of using reflective foil insulation?

Reflective foil insulation offers several advantages:

  • Enhanced thermal performance by reflecting radiant heat.
  • Reduced insulation thickness compared to traditional materials.
  • Improved energy efficiency, leading to potential cost savings.
  • Acts as a vapour control layer when properly installed.

How does Space Foil Insulation contribute to sustainability?

Space Foil Insulation is manufactured with sustainability in mind. It incorporates recycled materials and is designed to improve energy efficiency in buildings, thereby reducing overall energy consumption and associated carbon emissions.
