Is the thermal Insulation in Sip buildings good?
SIPTEC SIP systems are designed to provide a gap-free blanket of solid insulation. This allows for a tighter than average wind seal, eliminating drafts while retaining insulating ability over the life of the structure. As an extremely tight building, heating systems can be downsized to provide what little comfort heating is needed (light bulbs and human natural heat providing the bulk of what is necessary). It is an interesting fact that the boilers available on the market without exception provide too much heat for the SIPTEC-system. SIPTEC houses have mechanical ventilation installed to ensure optimum comfort for the occupants. This also provides opportunity to screen out allergenic airborne particles and dust mites as part of the process. In an age where asthma is a serious problem (3.4 million sufferers at a cost to the nation of 1 billion per annum), construction methodologies need to be seriously examined to address the problems. Climate control and heat recovery systems are a sm
