Insulation and Energy Efficiency

Insulation and Energy Efficiency

Insulation and energy efficiency concern the reduction of unwanted heat transfer and the relationship between a building's energy use and its performance. Insulating materials are incorporated into walls, roofs, floors, and other assemblies, while openings and air leakage affect the wider thermal envelope. Material properties, continuity, and connections to heating or cooling systems shape the contribution of insulation to occupied spaces.

Domestic Comfort and Energy Systems

Domestic performance connects the building envelope with energy use and the conditions within occupied rooms. Insulation, moisture control, acoustic measures, and solar energy address different aspects of that relationship, distinguishing treatments of building fabric from systems that supply or manage energy.
