Insulation of walls with foam with your own hands
Nowadays, the growth of energy tariffs forces the use of the most advanced heat-saving technologies. One of the best materials for these purposes is foam. It has a very low thermal conductivity coefficient (from 0.030 W/m*Up to 0.042 W/m*K), long service life and light weight. It is not quite suitable for indoor use, but as an outdoor insulation for apartments and houses it is the best option. In order for the work on wall insulation with foam to be not only of high quality, but also to take not so much time, the following materials and tools will be needed:- The foam itself;- Cement, lime mortar and construction sand for the preparation of plaster mortar;- Glue for gluing foam sheets and reinforcing mesh;- A drill with a drill of the appropriate thickness;- Umbrellas for fixing foam;- Reinforcing mesh;- Putty. The process of wall insulation using foam is not as complicated as it seems at first glance. If you clearly follow the instructions below and follow all the recommendations specified in it, the result will meet all the requirements. The whole work consists of two main stages: preparation of the wall and installation of insulation sheets. Wall primer In order for the leveling plaster to securely adhere to the wall, a primer is applied to the wall, which is an adhesive, or contact layer. Usually the soil dries for 6-8 hours. After complete drying, we proceed to the next stage. Installation of lighthouses The leveling of the wall begins with the installation of lighthouses. We measure the horizontal and vertical flatness along the entire wall with the help of a level and a plumb line. We pull the necessary number of cords for the convenience of installing beacons. We glue the beacons and wait for them to finally stand up. Plaster We prepare a plaster solution: cement + lime mortar + sand (1+2+4 parts). We throw the solution on the wall and align it with the rule from the bottom up. If you need to lay a thick layer, we throw it in several passes, keeping a pause between the layers for at least 2 hours. Gluing the foam is removed from the bottom row. We apply glue to the wall and level it with a comb. We apply a sheet and punch it with the help of a rule over the entire surface. For reliable fixation of the foam, the height of the teeth at the comb should be 10-12 mm. Fixing umbrellas with a drill, we drill holes and nail the foam with umbrellas at the rate of 5 pieces per square meter. We glue reinforced mesh on the plates, and after the glue dries, we proceed to putty.
