Ways of external insulation of the roof of the garage and the main stages
As soon as the first cold occurs, almost all motorists seek to warm the roof of their garage with their own. But for this it is necessary to possess at least the initial knowledge of thermal insulation and construction.
Before carrying out work, you need to find out the state of the garage, that is, you only build the roof, then it is best to use external insulation, and if you want to insulate the formed roof, then it is necessary to use thermal insulation from the inside.
External insulation:
– The future roof design (flat or pitched) does not matter at all, the main thing is that the insulation is located between the overlap beam and roofing. To reduce moisture penetration, the first layers of the “cake” of the insulation creeps a steamboard.
– After that, thermal insulation can be laid out. For floor slabs and for a continuous crate, sheets of polystyrene foam are suitable. It is best to glue the sheets with each other with a special foam.
– Also, you can use heat -insulating cotton wool – this is allowed to save money, but the quality of the heat -insulating coating will be less. If you use high -insulation wool of high density, then you can do without mounting rails, that is, lay the roof directly on the insulator.
