Why EIFS?
The optimum solution for any external wall thermal insulation is a seamless thermal insulation system – EIFS which has been applied for many years.
The name EIFS stands for External Insulation Finishing System. Within EIFS, a thermal insulation material such as EPS-boards or Rockwool is fixed to the outside wall with a special adhesive mortar, then the surface is reinforced with a glass fiber mesh and finally coated with a decorative plaster.
European Technical approvals
European Technical Approvals (ETAs) are granted after proving a thermal insulation system meets the requirements of ETAG 004:2002 (European Technical Approval Guidelines for External Insulation Finishing Systems (EIFS).
Requirements of ETA
The system must conform to the following six essential requirements (specified in accordance with the European parliament and council directive No. 89/106/EEC, called also the construction products directive):
In this way the high quality, functionality and durability of thermal insulation can be proved on the basis of test procedures reflecting 25 years of it is performance on building facade. In addition to offering the high quality of the products, Ceresit Promotes awareness in the use of the products in the building industry. For this purpose ROOF CARE Co. have a team of technical experts whose task is to provide advice to designers, contractors and clients at every stage of the construction process. High Quality products combined with the execution at a high level are the basis for granting warranties for using Ceresit thermal insulation system solution.
Qualities
Building thermally protected with EIFS offers the following qualities:
- Lower energy demand required for cooling or heating the rooms
- Improve thermal comfort of interiors
- Asthetic and long –term appearance of the building.
EIFS – Ceresit System
Uses
- Thermal insulation helps reduce CO2 emission, thus protecting the environment.
- Cost incurred for insulating an insulation system with the light-wet method (EIFS) pays off within a few years since the cooling or heating bills for the building may go down by as much as 30% together with ever rising cost energy providing significant savings.
