Energy Efficiency & Environmental Sustainability
The need for environmentally sustainable living has been well documented.
The SIP Kits - Kingspan TEK Building System is CFC/HCFC-free with zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP).
The SIP Kits -Kingspan TEK Building System achieves U-values of 0.2 W/mē.K as standard for walls and roofs.To achieve this thermal performance in traditionally constructed masonry cavity walls, greater wall thicknesses may be require -– thicker walls that encroach on living space.
The SIP Kits -Kingspan TEK Building System can achieve air-tightness levels as good as 0.91 air changes per hour at 50 Pa. It is very difficult for traditional masonry construction methods to achieve this standard.
These factors combined, could result in your home being so energy efficient, that you may have potential to avoid installing a conventional heating system e.g. radiators altogether.
Concern for the environment does not have to equate with being out of pocket.
People that use the SIP Kits -Kingspan TEK Building System to build their dream home can also see the financial benefits that the System offers.
To achieve SIP Kits -Kingspan TEK Building System levels of energy efficiency with traditional masonry construction methods would demand a significant premium in build costs.
