Isoplat plates for exterior cladding of a house - material properties and installation technology

Are you looking for an environmentally friendly thermal insulation material that can be used for the exterior decoration of a country house? There is such a material, it is environmentally friendly, easy to install, and in addition, it is characterized by excellent heat and sound insulating properties. We are talking about Isoplat plates, which every year are becoming more and more popular in Russia and in the CIS countries.

Basic information about the material

ISOPLAAT (IZOPLAT) is a wide range of insulating materials designed for thermal insulation and wind protection of the house. The range of products of the brand includes materials for insulation of floors, walls and roofs.

Performance characteristics of products ISOPLAAT (IZOPLAT)
	Sustainability... In the manufacture of the insulating material, adhesives and impregnations containing phenol are not used. The insulation contains no components with a carcinogenic effect.
	Insulation from heat loss from the inside... Insulation material in terms of the degree of thermal conductivity is comparable to the popular today mineral wool. Therefore, external wall cladding will make the house more economical and energy efficient.
	Insulation from outside heat... The outer wall cladding will make the house look like a thermos. As a result, in hot summer, the house will be cool and no air conditioning is required. The optimum temperature in the house is maintained for 15 hours, provided that both the walls and the roofing cake are insulated.
	Sound insulating properties... Due to the structure with many micro cavities, fiber boards are distinguished by a high soundproofing ability, which increases in proportion to the increase in the thickness of the material.
	Air permeability and hygroscopicity... Plates used as cladding allow air to pass through without compromising heat-insulating qualities. This quality significantly reduces the likelihood of mold growth inside the building. Moreover, Izoplat, passing air from the outside, absorbs moisture from it, and then gives this moisture out. Therefore, it will be dry in houses with such breathable walls.
	Bactericidal properties... During the production of boards, starch and sugar are naturally removed from the wood mass. As a result, the finished insulating material, due to the lack of a nutrient medium, loses its attractiveness for microorganisms. Antiseptic impregnations are not used in the manufacture of this environmentally friendly material!
	Ease of installation... Despite the high efficiency of the insulation system, the installation of boards is easier than thermal insulation of building objects with mineral wool. As a result, the installation can be done by hand and save on the services of professional installers.

It is important to remember that ISOPLAAT material is manufactured only by the trade and production association SKANO GROUP (Estonia).

There are no enterprises engaged in the production of these materials either in Russia or in other countries, except Estonia. Therefore, if you are offered to buy non-Estonian Izoplat plates, know that this is a fake.

Are there any analogues? Izoplat products are not unique and there are plates with similar characteristics on the market. These materials are sold under the brands BELTERMO (Belarus) and STEICO (Poland).

Exterior cladding materials

For the exterior cladding of the house, Isoplat board material is used, made from coniferous wood shavings mixed with a type of wood resin - lignin.

The structure of lignin is similar to the structure of reinforced concrete, only here the function of reinforcement is performed by cellulose fibers. As a result, a board of wood origin, with a low density, is highly durable in comparison with other types of insulating building materials.

Illustrations	What can be used for external wall insulation?
	Wind protection plate... This insulation is used to protect the outer walls from strong cold winds. The material is installed with equal success on top of solid walls and laid inside the frame structures. The slab is characterized by high bending strength, and therefore serves as a reinforcement of the rigidity of the insulated structure. Thickness 12 mm, 25 mm. Width 800 mm, 1200 mm. Length 2700 mm, 2400 mm.
	Heat insulating (soundproof) plates... This insulation is used to reduce the thermal conductivity of the outer walls. In addition to low thermal conductivity, the slab has a high sound-absorbing and dissipative ability. Along with the cladding of external walls, the material is used for filling interior partitions. Thickness 12 mm, 25 mm. Width 1200 mm. Length 2700 mm.
	UNIVERSAL... These finishing modules have a milled tongue and groove lock along the perimeter. UNIVERSAL modules are a universal solution for interior decoration and external sound, heat and wind insulation. Due to the locking connection, the use of modules is characterized by the complete absence of cold bridges! Thickness 25 mm, 50 mm. Width 600 mm, 1200 mm. Length 1800 mm.
	ISOMODUL... This is another category of versatile material suitable for both wall cladding and for laying in subfloors and in roof structures. But unlike UNIVERSAL, there is no perimeter lock. Thickness 50 mm. Width 625 mm. Length 1200 mm.

Installation of Izoplat in frame construction

How to insulate walls for a ventilated facade? Consider the sheathing technology using the example of a frame house. In this case, a 25 mm thick windshield plate is marked and cut in such a way as to cover the distance between two adjacent posts.

The plates are fastened with galvanized nails or anodized self-tapping screws, and one and the other fasteners are hammered or screwed directly into the frame posts.

If windproof modules with a perimeter lock are used, then the cold bridges are closed due to the entry of the spike into the groove. If slabs without a tongue-and-groove connection are used, additional seam sealing will be required.

This can be done with the help of polyurethane foam, which is blown into the seam, where it expands and polymerizes. Sealing with polyurethane foam will not only eliminate the appearance of cold bridges, but also increase the rigidity of the wall cladding.

After the outer part of the walls is tiled, the lathing is carried out for the installation of the ventilated facade. The choice of the method of lathing is determined by the type of finishing material that will be installed during finishing. For example, the photo shows a vertical sheathing for installing horizontal siding.

Since the facade will be ventilated, the crate must be assembled in such a way that a sufficient gap is formed between the finish cladding and the windproof material. To do this, when assembling the lathing, it is enough to use a 40 × 40 mm bar, installed in 50 cm increments.

The fastening of wooden blocks is carried out with self-tapping screws directly to Izoplat, the density of which will be sufficient to hold the batten with the facade cladding.

Thermal insulation of external walls for plastering

Is it possible to insulate external walls with Isoplat® for subsequent plastering? Yes, there is such an opportunity, but on one condition - you need to use plates with a thickness of 25 mm or more.

Wood board insulation absorbs moisture like a sponge, but unlike conventional particle boards, which swell, the material subsequently releases moisture to the outside. Now let's imagine plaster laid on top of Izoplat. The slab is immediately moistened, but during the setting of the plaster, the insulation will give off moisture, so that the finish layer will not crack.

Thermal insulation of external walls by frameless method is preceded by the preparation of the mounting surface. The wall is leveled and the relief is completely removed from it. Then the slabs are fastened to the wall with 75 mm dowel-nails.

At the same stage, a plaster mesh is attached over the thermal insulation layer. Plastering is carried out on a grid in two layers: the first layer is rough, the second is finishing.

Let's sum up

Izoplat is a modern material, using which you can make your home warmer and more comfortable. If you still have questions about the technology of working with Isoplat insulating plates, ask them in the comments to the article.

ISOPLAAT thermal insulation boards (Izoplat) are a universal solution for internal insulation of wooden houses. This breathable, environmentally friendly sound and heat insulation material is suitable for cladding horizontal and vertical surfaces. Plates are produced in the size of 2700x1200mm, thickness 10/12/25 mm. The surface of one side of the sheet is smooth (for finishing).

Installation of ISOPLAAT boards inside the house

When installing ISOPLAAT boards inside the house on vertical surfaces, braces must be installed between the frame posts. Braces provide rigidity to the entire wall structure. Slabs are fastened to the crate or to wooden bases using staples, to concrete or brick structures - using liquid nails or glue. The adhesive is water-based (no formaldehyde).

Heat-insulating plates in 1 or 2 layers are installed on the walls and ceiling, which can also serve as a supporting structure for soft thermal insulation (ecowool). The finishing of the surfaces sheathed with ISOPLAAT boards can be any: wallpapering, painting, covering with decorative ISOPLAAT panels. It is important to use vapor-permeable materials (primers, adhesives) when preparing surfaces, otherwise the plate will lose its ability to transmit vapors.

Due to the porous structure, the boards can absorb moisture without changing the original geometric dimensions and losing properties. Well suited for use in country houses of intermittent residence. They do not crack and retain their properties in unheated houses, provided they are constantly ventilated.

Floor underlay device

A special underlay is placed on the floor under the ISOPLAAT laminate, which has the same characteristics as the thermal insulation board. It can be used both for repairing old and laying new floors. Evens out the surfaces of subfloors. Thickness: 4/5/7 mm. It can be used under any floor as a substrate, but more often used under floating parquet or laminate flooring.

ISOPLAAT underlay can withstand mechanical loads up to 20 t / m2 without deformation.

The substrate is laid on the sub-floor, 10 mm away from the wall. Can be applied with glue. The floor covering is arranged on top.

Installation of ISOPLAAT thermal insulation boards using a substrate

The main advantages of the internal cladding of the house contour with ISOPLAAT (Izoplat) plates:

• Completely vapor-permeable construction, which allows the walls to "breathe" and creates a healthy indoor climate. In order for the walls to pass vapors, it is necessary to use vapor-permeable materials for the finishing and exterior cladding of the house;
• Additional sound and heat insulation walls, floors, ceilings;
• For soft insulation they serve as a supporting retaining structure;
• Align the sheathed surfaces;
• Light weight, easy to transport, carry and install;
• Absolutely environmentally friendly material... For insulation and decoration, you can also use eco-materials to create completely environmentally friendly structures;

The house can be completely sheathed with environmentally friendly vapor-permeable ISOPLAAT panels, both outside and inside, while providing additional thermal insulation. Then, moisture and condensation will not accumulate in the structure of walls, ceilings and floors, while retaining the original properties of the insulation and wooden elements in the structures.

Installation of heat and sound insulation boards IZOPLAT on walls and ceilings

Requirements:

IZOPLAT sheets are used for finishing, leveling, improving sound insulation and thermal insulation in rooms with dry and normal humidity levels.
Installation must be carried out during the period of finishing work, i.e. after all the "wet" processes have been completed, which can significantly increase the humidity in the room. And also the electrical and plumbing wiring is done.

Work should be carried out in dry and normal humidity conditions.
Before installation, keep IZOPLAT sheets for 1-2 days in the same room in order to equalize humidity. Place the sheets vertically, place spacers for air access and avoidance of sheet curvature.
If, during installation on a frame structure made of a wooden bar (on a crate), there is a horizontal joint of two sheets, then their fastening and joining should be carried out on a horizontal bar (mortgage). Adjacent horizontal joints must be vertically offset relative to each other.
When finishing the openings of windows and doors, do not allow joining of sheets at the corners of the opening.
The ISOPLAT sheet has one side smooth, the other wavy. Installation is carried out with the smooth side out. Those. the smooth side of the wall insulation panel goes under the finishing.
Ceiling cladding with IZOPLAT sheets provides for mandatory fastening with nails with a step 2 times more often than for a wall. The use of wide bug type hats is recommended. For the best visco-insulating effect, multilayer cladding is recommended, for example, the gypsum board is attached close to Izoplat, additionally supporting the IZOPLAT sheet and enhancing the insulating effect. See section "Soundproofing".
Placing electrical wiring in the space of the sheathing frame should exclude the possibility of its damage by fasteners (nails, staples, etc.)
IMPORTANT! Do not prime the IZOPLAT board with an ordinary primer! It is useless and harmful!

IZOPLAT plate installation procedure on a vertical wooden frame (crate).

For the manufacture of a frame structure, a wooden beam with a cross section of at least 45x45 is used as a partition or sheathing of the base wall. The spacing of the frame posts depends on the thickness of the slab. Fastening is done with wide head galvanized nails or stainless steel construction staples or coated. The length of the fasteners depends on the thickness of the board. On the perimeter of the sheet, nails are nailed every 100-150 mm, inside the sheet every 300 mm. The distance from the edge of the sheet is 10-20 mm.
ISOPLAT plate 12 mm thick.

The spacing of the frame posts (center-to-center distance) is 280 mm.
The length of the nails is at least 40 mm, the length of the staple is at least 32 mm.
Plate IZOPLAT 25 mm thick.

The spacing of the frame posts (center-to-center distance) is 600 mm.
The length of the nails is at least 70 mm, the length of the staple is at least 58 mm.
IMPORTANT! Do not prime the board with an ordinary primer!

The procedure for mounting the IZOPLAT slab to a stone (concrete, etc.) wall with glue... Frameless installation.

If the stone surface is flat enough, you can do without the lathing. Isoplat sheets are glued directly to the wall, due to which the interior space of the room is won.

Choice of glue:
- for experienced craftsmen, glue for drywall (dry mix on a gypsum or cement basis, brand of your choice) or glue for mineral wool (on a cement basis, for example, CERESIT ST 190 or BAUMIT StarKontakt).
- the simplest and most effective way is polyurethane foam (for example, MACROFLEX, PENOSIL, etc.).

The adhesive can be applied both to the wall and to the sheet. Depends on the instructions of the adhesive manufacturer. For example, if the base is even, the adhesive is applied to the sheet in a 50 mm wide strip using a notched trowel around the perimeter and in three rows inside the sheet. If the base is uneven, the glue is applied in a thick layer of at least 10 mm, as shown in the photo, or on the wall with plaques.
The foam is applied to the sheet along the perimeter and in three rows along its length inside the sheet. The distance between the rows of foam is approximately 30 cm. The distance from the edge of the sheet is 3 cm. The foam can also be applied in a zigzag pattern, as shown in the photo. For a sheet with a thickness of 12 mm, in order to prevent subsequent swelling of the thin sheet, wait a few minutes after applying the foam to allow the foam to expand as much as possible.
Then the ISOPLAT sheet is lifted, installed on 10-12 mm spacers, pressed against the wall and leveled. The sheet should be pressed against the bonded surface for at least 15 minutes. It is recommended to additionally press the glued sheet to the wall with screws. Not less than 9 pcs. on a sheet of 3 in a row. The screws will also help fit the joints of the two sheets. After the glue has dried, the screws can be removed. Fill the gaps in the joints with glue or foam to prevent the formation of cracks at the joints after puttying. When using glue or foam, it is important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations: types of glued surfaces, adhesion time, pressure time, etc.
Before the subsequent (finishing) finishing, it is necessary to wait for the sheet to dry completely for at least 24 hours.

Attention! Usually, the outermost sheets on the pallet (applies to thin sheets of 12 mm thickness) may have slight surface distortions due to the high elasticity and natural properties of the wood. The sheet is easily straightened when mounted on a frame structure, or when laid on a floor or ceiling as an insulating absorbing layer in a multi-layer structure in combination with rigid sheets, for example, gypsum board. For gluing on the wall, it is recommended to slightly moisten such sheets with a hand spray, lay them on a firm, straight base or on the floor and press them down with a small weight. Leave on for 24 hours.

The procedure for mounting the IZOPLAT plate on the ceiling.

It is recommended to fasten Izoplat sheets to the ceiling on a wooden frame or metal profile. The spacing of the posts and the length of the fasteners are the same as above for mounting on a wooden frame. The step of fasteners is twice as often as on a vertical frame (wall). Fasteners: nails with a wide head or screws with a bug head. Then a gypsum board sheet is mounted on top of the Isoplat sheet. Further finishing of the gypsum board sheet is carried out in the usual way. It is not recommended to glue the Isoplat sheet to the ceiling.

Preparation of the IZOPLAT sheet for finishing.

Puttying joints is done using a reinforcing mesh with ordinary putty (for example, the brand does not matter, but it is advisable to choose a ready-made one in plastic buckets, since there is an optimal amount of water). Preliminarily, along the joints of the installed sheets, use sandpaper to make a depression of 2-3 mm and a width of 50-60 mm. Ordinary putty is applied in the joint area of \u200b\u200bthe sheets to the produced width, the reinforcing tape is laid along the joint and smoothed with a spatula while removing excess putty. Do not allow the putty to be completely squeezed out from under the tape. After the first layer of putty has dried (12-24 hours), a cover layer is applied. Depressions formed by nail heads or staples must also be filled. After drying, the putty surface is sanded and the entire surface is primed with water-based paint. The smooth surface of the IZOPLAT board is used for wallpapering, painting, plastering. For best results in case of high demands on surface quality, a continuous top-coat is usually carried out. Then prime the surface with water-based paint. Further finishing of the putty and primed surface is carried out according to the standard technique.
Advice! A primer with water-based paint gives a white base for the wallpaper. Plus: a brown dark background will not be visible through the wallpaper. Another plus: in the case of plywood wallpaper, you can easily soak and remove the old wallpaper without damaging the surface of the plate. No need to re-putty.

Description of installation of sheets IZOPLAT to diagrams 1-5

1. Fasteners are used on a frame structure or a partition made of a wooden bar: galvanized nails with a wide head or staples. Distance from the edge of the slab is 10-20 mm. The step of the fastener along the edge is 100-150 mm and in the center of the sheet - 280 mm.
2. IZOPLAT sheets are nailed to a wooden surface or scraped according to a scheme similar to fasteners on a wooden frame. The distance between the rows of fasteners is 300-400 mm.
3. Fasteners for IZOPLAT sheets 12 and 25 mm thick, respectively. Nails and staples.
4. For cladding stone (concrete) walls with IZOPLAT sheets, polyurethane foam (for example, MACROFLEX, PENOSIL) or drywall glue (for example, the brand does not matter) are used. The main wall to be lined must be flat and free of dust (primed).
5. The adhesive is applied to the back of the boards at a distance of 30 mm from the edge of the board. Glue spots with a diameter of 50 mm are applied in the central part of the board with a pitch of approximately 280 mm.
   IZOPLAT sheets are nailed onto a wooden wall (timber) with a step of 300-400 mm according to the same principle as to a wooden lathing.

Installation of sheets of the Scandinavian windproof plate IZOPLAT

The Scandinavian ISOPLAAT windproof board is a sheet with a format of 2700x1200 mm. Thickness 12 or 25 mm. The edge of the sheet is straight.
IZOPLAT sheets are installed vertically to the frame structure of the wall (for example, the wall of a frame house made of a 150x50 board or a crate on aerated concrete from a bar of 50x50 mm). In this case, one sheet covers three vertical posts. The distance between the frame posts from their centers should be 600 mm (see drawing 1).
IZOPLAT sheets are nailed with galvanized nails or professional construction staples around the entire perimeter of the sheet: vertically to the frame posts, horizontally to the strapping elements or to the mortgages. And in the center of the sheet, where auxiliary marking is applied in the center on the painted side.
The horizontal joints of two sheets that do not fall on the strapping element are reinforced with a mortgage (board / timber at least 50x50 mm), to which the edges of the slabs are nailed. The mortgage is installed on the inside of the frame structure between the vertical posts and is attached to them with metal corners. Plates are fastened using nails or staples. For ease of installation, there is a longitudinal strip in the center of the sheet.
The height of the base must be at least 40 cm.
If a ventilated facade (lining, siding, etc.) is planned as a decorative wall cladding, it is recommended to install wooden bars or slats (crate) immediately after installing the plates to give additional rigidity (as shown in the photo on the left, pay attention to base height).
Windshield slabs should be cladded with external cladding no later than one month after installation. To ensure moisture exchange between the slab and the casing, an air (ventilated) gap of 20-50 mm wide is created.
Fastening a 12 mm wind shield

Use galvanized nails with a wide head at least 40 mm long or staples at least 32 mm long (see drawing 3). The distance of the nailing from the edge of the slab must be at least 10 mm. Nails / staples are driven in at the edge of the board at 100 mm intervals and in the center of the board at 200 mm intervals (see drawing 4). There are markings in the center of the slab to facilitate fastening. The consumption of nails is approximately 25 pcs / m2.
Fastening a 25 mm wind shield

Use galvanized nails with a wide head at least 70 mm long or staples at least 58 mm long (see drawing 3). The distance of the nailing from the edge of the board must be at least 10 mm. Nails / staples are driven along the edge of the slab at intervals of 100-150 mm and in the center of the slab at intervals of 280 mm (see drawing 5). There are markings in the center of the slab to facilitate fastening. The consumption of nails is approximately 15 pcs / m2.

Installation of the roofing plate IZOPLAT 25 mm

To install roofing plates, the distance between the rafters must be 600-700 mm, the roof slope is over 20 degrees. Start installation from the bottom and to the left, laying the slabs across the rafters (see Fig. 1). After cutting to the size of the last roofing slab of the row, start the next row with the same cut off part of the slab (see drawing 2). This prevents overlapping of the end seams. Each of the slabs must cross at least two rafters. The installation procedure is shown in drawings 1-5.

Fastening the roof plate

For fastening the roofing boards, galvanized nails 70 mm long are used. The joints of end spikes, grooves, ridges and penetrations of holes must be sealed to ensure water resistance (see drawing 6). Simultaneously with the fastening of the roofing plates, spacer strips (lathing) and slabs of the roofing are also attached (see drawing 4). Do not stand on the slabs between the rafters.

It is always necessary to use only the best materials for a quality repair. This article will discuss in detail the heat and sound insulation plate called Izoplat, its characteristics, purpose, prices and much more.

Izoplat is a special plate that can be used for both thermal insulation and sound insulation.

This material is environmentally natural, as it is made from the fibers of coniferous trees without the addition of glue or any other artificial impurities. The shredded wood is simply moistened, laid out in a straight line and compacted with a hot press with wax, which turns the finished material into dense sheets.

Izoplat can be used for the following purposes:

• for cladding interior walls with dry and medium humidity levels;
• for thermal insulation as insulation of the highest category;
• for soundproofing rooms both inside and outside;
• for cladding external walls for the purpose of insulation.

Installation features

Installation of classic insulation sheets has the following features:

1. Before installation, they must be kept for two days in the room in which they will be mounted. This is necessary so that the moisture content of the material becomes the same as the humidity in the room. To do this, the plates must be placed in a straight upright position and small wooden beams must be installed between them.
2. This material is attached to the wood frame with nails or special construction brackets. It is best to use high quality nails with a fairly wide head volume. They need to be hammered at a distance of 2 cm from the edges of the wood sheet. In the middle, the interval should be 30 cm.
3. If such slabs are subsequently covered with wallpaper, then the interval between the middle rows of nails should be no more than 35 cm.
4. For installation on a stone wall, use construction adhesive. It is also important to know that the base of the wall must be flat and clean (no dust). The adhesive should be applied to the back of the board 30 cm from the edges. In the middle of the slab - with an interval of 15 cm. If you see the need to reinforce the slabs, you can prop them from below.
5. Such plates can be painted.To do this, the heads of the nails need to be putty.
6. Isoplat can also be used for interior cladding of rooms. In this case, the installation is carried out using classical technologies. Before starting work, putty must be applied to the plates.

Installation of moisture-resistant Isoplat sheets has the following features:

1. Before starting work, the surface of the walls must be degreased, cleaned of dust and dirt. If there is mold, apply an antifungal agent and dry thoroughly.
2. If the surface of the walls is uneven, so the moisture-resistant plates Isoplates must be installed on a special frame structure or wooden lathing. You need to fix it with galvanized nails. The total distance of the beams to the lattices should be no more than 30 cm.Nails should be nailed every 12 cm.
3. The joints of such sheets must be putty and covered with reinforced tape. It is also advisable to putty the nail heads.
4. These slabs can also be left as a decor, only having varnished them on top. It will look good in private homes. If you want to mask this material, then you can use wallpaper and plaster (for interior walls) or paint (for exterior walls).

Reviews on the use of plates

1. Igor, 35 years old, Moscow. “I made repairs in the apartment using this material. Initially, the problem was in the cold walls, which also let in a lot of noise. After the installation of Isoplat plates, the apartment became much warmer, the constant noises coming from the street disappeared. So far, I'm happy with everything. "
2. Maxim, 34 years old, Kazan. “I insulated a private house with Izoplatom. I want to say that this material is very cool, because it is easy to use - to attach with nails and that's it, there is no unnecessary fuss! For the second year already, the house has successfully survived the winter and nothing has disappeared anywhere. The room is very warm, dry and cozy. I can recommend Isoplat with confidence. "
3. Daniil, 26 years old, Chelyabinsk. “Personally, I didn’t like the Isoplat plates. It seems that this is just wood waste, which the manufacturers decided to compress and called it a miracle insulation. I mounted one of the rooms in my apartment with them, but did not see any result: all the rooms, as before, had the same temperature and sound insulation. Disappointed with the next advertising antics of the construction market. "
4. Valentina, 41 years old, Novosibirsk. “I have two children, so I care very much about the quality and naturalness of the materials. I was very pleased that these plates are made exclusively from natural ingredients. As for the end result, it was wonderful: the interior walls of the apartment leveled off and became much warmer. This is a great alternative to other, more chemical materials! "
5. Mikhail, 31 years old, Moscow. “I used these wood sheets as protection against moisture and wind on the exterior wall of the house. In principle, the result is not bad, but I do not think that this material will cope with more serious tasks, such as thermal insulation and sound insulation, so I would not use it for such purposes.

6. Arthur, 48 years old, Volgograd. “I did repairs in the house with my own hands. On the advice of familiar builders, I used Isoplat sheets to insulate the outer walls. I can say that I liked working with them, because they are easy to cut and just as easily and quickly attached to the walls. The effect was also pleasing - it became warmer, and at the same time, the extra noise from the street left. I do not regret the time and money spent. "
7. Boris, 56 years old, Vladivostok. “I used Izoplat as insulation, because there was always a problem with walls freezing and poor heat retention. I attached slabs outside the house. Despite all expectations, in the cold the house was still freezing, and there were even drops of dew on the ceiling due to condensation. Now I'm thinking of insulating the ceiling for them, but I doubt it will help. It would be better if I used something else. "
8. Bogdan, 45 years old, Nizhny Novgorod. “Quite by accident I came across this material in a construction supermarket. He immediately interested me, since I had not seen before that heaters were made of wood. For testing, I took several sheets and insulated one of the walls of the room with them. I waited for the winter to see the result. As it turned out, the effect was and the wall became warmer. The next year, I already completely installed Izoplat on all the walls of the house. Now I am planning to do the same at the dacha, because so far I haven’t found better material ”.

After analyzing the reviews, it can be noted that most of the people who tried it were satisfied with the effect of the Isoplat sheets, since it became much warmer in their house.

1. It is very important that the walls on which Izoplat will be attached are clean, dry and free of mold, otherwise it can threaten with serious consequences and the threat of a quality repair;
2. It is recommended to store these materials in a dry place in the packaging so that they do not get moisture;
3. Only high-quality materials should be used for installation;
4. If you do not want to use nails for mounting plates, then screws can easily replace them, which will be even stronger;
5. Izoplat should be used only for its intended purpose and do not use moisture-resistant sheets as insulation, since they will not have the expected effect.

Izoplat plates are Finnish technology, tradition and quality. They are made from milled softwood.

The connecting link is lignin - a natural component - the sap of coniferous trees, which is released during the production process. No chemical additives or adhesives are used. Therefore, Isoplat boards are 100% environmentally friendly material. In addition, the absence of chemical impregnations and the production of the "wet method" ensures the reliability and durability of the boards at temperature extremes, in humid and cold climates.

Insulation from the outside using Isoplat

Helpful information:

External insulation of houses is carried out with the help of Izoplat windproof plates. Plates are available in thickness of 12, 25, 50 mm, size - 2700x1200 mm. The windshield is a waterproof material thanks to the additional paraffin impregnation. This is a reliable protection against atmospheric humidity and precipitation. In addition to their main function - wind protection - the slabs combine the properties of thermal insulation, sound insulation, add additional rigidity to the frame and are a good basis for facade plaster.

Isoplat slabs are installed as a windproof layer in a multilayer frame structure under a ventilated facade (blockhouse, Finnish lining, etc.). Also, additional insulation of the wooden frame racks is required. When performing such tasks, a 12 mm plate is used. A 25 mm slab will add rigidity to the entire structure, insulate both the racks and the entire structure. A slab of 25 mm or more is needed to build an energy efficient home that can be lived in all year round. It is also an excellent substitute for cross-insulation. In addition, boards from 25 mm can be plastered with BAUMIT StarContact. The Izoplat design is a more efficient and reliable analogue of the Western European scheme, where foil, OSB, foam and insulation from leading manufacturers (for example) are used.

Installation on the frame is performed as follows.

• The slabs are applied vertically to the wall so that one slab overlaps three vertical posts. There must be exactly 600 mm between the posts.
• Then the slabs are nailed with galvanized nails and construction brackets around the entire perimeter, as well as in the center (there is a special marking on the green side).
• At horizontal joints, where there are no strapping elements, it is necessary to reinforce with a mortgage (board or timber 50x50 mm).
• The embedment is attached to the inside of the structure between the uprights.
• The finishing facade cladding must be made no later than a month after the installation of the Izoplat windscreen.

Also, Izoplat windscreen can be used for external insulation of walls of houses made of timber, aerated concrete, brick. No wooden lathing required for installation. The peculiarity of the slabs is that they "breathe", that is, the walls of the house will be reliably protected from dampness, mold and mildew. This does not require an additional vapor barrier layer.

Isoplat is installed instead of the outer cladding of the subfloor frame structure at the bottom. This provides more effective insulation of the log, wind protection and support for the main insulation. Plates are also laid between the logs on pre-prepared bars. This option is applicable if it is not possible to install Izoplat from below, and the logs are not insulated.

Plates are available with straight edge as well as with tongue and groove. "Studded" Izoplat can be installed both on walls and on the floor, and most importantly - on the roof. Therefore, they are also called roofing slabs. Installation on the roof is carried out as follows.

• Plates are attached to the rafters from bottom to top, forming horizontal rows.
• Installation should start from the bottom row and proceed from left to right. In this case, the thorn should be directed upwards.
• One slab covers at least two rafters.
• After finishing the installation of the first row, the remaining piece is cut off and can be used at the beginning of the second row. In this case, the vertical joints of the rows closest to each other will be displaced with dressing (similar to brickwork).
• After that, the crate is installed. Fastening is carried out through Isoplat plates directly to the rafters.

The remaining work is carried out as usual, depending on the selected roofing material. The tiles should be laid immediately after installing Izoplat. In case of a delay, the roof is covered with plastic wrap. A ventilated gap must be made between the windproof layer and the roofing material itself for moisture to escape from the structure.

Insulation inside with Isoplat

In addition to windproof boards, the Isoplat product line contains heat and sound insulation boards for interior work. According to their properties, they are identical to the first, but they do not have paraffin impregnation, therefore, use outside is impossible.

The only feature is that the Izoplat heat and sound insulation board cannot be primed with ordinary primers, otherwise it loses its "breathing" properties.

Isoplat heat and sound insulation boards are used in rooms with dry or normal humidity levels, in country houses and apartments. These slabs can be installed on any surface, be it walls, floors or ceilings. They are used both for independent insulation and sound insulation, and in multi-layer structures. Ideal for creating partitions. Installation does not require a crate, so working with them is quite easy and simple.

Installation of Isoplat boards is carried out using glue, polyurethane foam or polyurethane sealant directly to the concrete wall, thus the internal space is slightly reduced.

1. The glue can be applied both to the sheet and directly to the wall. It depends on the type of glue.
2. After that, the slab is attached to lining 10-12mm thick, pressed to the surface and leveled.
3. Press the sheet for 15 minutes or more. You can also additionally press down the sheet with screws. To do this, you need at least 9 pieces (3 in a row). In addition, screws will be useful to adjust the joints of the slabs.
4. Once completely dry, the screws can be removed.
5. The gaps in the joints should be filled with foam or glue to avoid cracks in the joints after filling.
6. The boards must be completely dry before finishing (at least 24 hours).

Fastening of heat and sound insulation boards Isoplat to the ceiling is carried out using a wooden frame or metal profile. It is convenient to use nails with a wide head or “bug” screws as fasteners.

With Izoplat outside and inside, you are provided with warmth, silence and comfort.
