The layers of materials in the structure of the ventilated facade are arranged depending on the level of heat transfer, which means that the degree of decrease is decreasing, while the resistance to vapor permeability increases.
The scheme of a ventilated facade looks like this:
Wall, thermal insulation layer, air gap, protective screen.
The above scheme is the most optimal ventilated facade technology. Taking into account the climatic features of our region, it is recommended to use additional thermal insulation to more effectively protect the walls from alternating temperature changes and fluctuations, freezing and thawing. At the same time, it reduces the likelihood of deformation and the appearance of dampness and fungus on the walls.
One of the important advantages of ventilated facades is the ability of the walls to retain heat. In the event of a heat supply failure in a building, a brick wall with external thermal insulation will take several times longer to cool down compared to an internal heat-treated wall.
In addition, we should not forget about another important advantage of a ventilated facade. We are talking about noise insulation.
The soundproofing ability of the structure is increased by a layer of heat-insulating material. At the same time, the facade panels themselves are sound-absorbing, which, in combination with thermal insulation, maximizes the level of sound insulation.
We should not forget about the air gap in a hinged ventilated facade, which is one of the important differences from other types of facade structures. Acting as a temperature buffer, it works as a kind of ventilation system, removing and preventing moisture and heat loss.
Facade cassettes are made of fire-resistant materials, and in summer they perform a sun protection function without any problems, reflecting heat rays with an external screen.
Based on all of the above, we can conclude that ventilated facade technology is one of the best options for wall cladding, has great credibility and is in great demand in modern construction and architecture. Choosing a hinged facade, you get the best soundproofing and thermal performance, but let’s not forget about the appearance and aesthetic component. And in this segment, ventilated facades simply have no competitors. And a large selection of materials will not leave anyone indifferent. Everyone will find something to their liking. Aluminum composite panels, porcelain stoneware, HPL panels, fiber cement boards and other materials will allow you to realize any architectural fantasies in a very short time and at an affordable price.
