Thermawall TW55 Kingspan PIR Rigid Insulation Board 80mm x 1200mm x 2400mm is used between studs or as an insulating sheathing material for steel and timber framing wall applications.
80mm Kingspan PIR Insulation Board is a high performance insulation suitable for use with timber frame and steel frame wall constructions in new build and refurbishment projects.
The insulation core and facings of Kingspan Thermawall TW55 resist attack by mould and microbial growth, and do not provide any food value to vermin.
This reflective, low emissivity surface improves the thermal resistance of any unventilated cavity adjacent to the board.
If correctly installed, Thermawall TW55 can have an indefinite life, durability depends on the supporting structure and the conditions of its use.
Kingspan Thermawall range performs very well in fire resistance tests and can outperform equivalent constructions featuring non-combustible synthetic mineral fibre insulation.
ThermaWall TW55 Wall Insulation Board is thermally efficient, as determined by using long-term thermal resistance values called R-Value.
TW55 Thermawall, Kingspan TP10 Thermapitch and TF70 Thermafloor insulation boards are exactly the same high-performance PIR products, Kingspan is using different names for different applications in walls, roofs and floors.
Kingspan TW55 PIR Insulation Board can be cut easily using a fine toothed saw, or by scoring with a sharp knife.
Ensure accurate trimming to achieve close-butting joints and continuity of insulation to avoid thermal bridging.

Key points:
· Unaffected by air infiltration.
· Resistant to the passage of water vapour.
· Easy to handle and install.
· Ideal for new build and refurbishment.
· Non-deleterious material.
· Can be used between studs or as an insulating sheathing.
· Suitable for use with timber frame and steel frame wall constructions.
· High performance rigid thermoset insulation - thermal conductivity 0.022 W/m.K.
· Robust Details for Part E of the Building Regulations (England & Wales).
Fitting Insulation Boards:
· Measure the distance between the rafters, joists or studs before cutting the boards as spacings can vary.
· Ensure that insulation boards are lightly butted and that there is a tight fit between the insulation and the rafters, joists or studs.
· Fill all gaps with expanding urethane sealant.
Cutting Boards:
· Cutting should be carried out either by using a fine toothed saw, or by scoring with a sharp knife, snapping the board over a straight edge and then cutting the facing on the other side.
· Ensure accurate trimming to achieve close-butting joints and continuity of insulation.
Please note, Kingspan TP10 / TW55 / TF70 are exactly the same.
Kingspan is using different name for different application.

We can help to calculate price per m2 or linear meter (one meter in length) cost, please just contact us via phone 02081910776, email or live chat. Alternatively, you can work it out yourself quickly and easily: to get cost per meter square please divide price shown in orange area by ''Required area (m2)'' Example price of £28.80 divided by board coverage 2.88m2 = cost of £10.00 per m2.
INSTALLERS
No matter whether you choose a local installer or a national company, there’s a few tips to help you find the right installer for your home insulation improvements, such as asking for recommendations and making sure that they’re part of a certification scheme. This makes sure that they have the right skills and standards of workmanship to carry out the installation, and you can be sure that they know exactly what they are doing.
4 TIPS FOR CHOOSING THE BEST INSULATION INSTALLER
1. Thermal inspection picture in portfolio
It’s worth seeing a installer’s previous work. There’s no harm asking if you can see any properties nearby that they’ve installed insulation in. Best way would be to see Infrared Thermal Imaging Inspections. Thermal cameras spot small, but key changes in temperature in different areas of a house, identifying problematic areas that the human eye never could and some that a visual inspection could only hypothesize.
2. Reviews
Along with checking recommendations and previous work, finding reviews online can often be a great way to find out if they provide a good service or not. However, it’s best not to solely rely on reviews you may find or review websites, as there’s no controlling who writes them.
3. Compare prices
Comparing prices will also ensure companies can’t take advantage of you and give you a fair price.
4. Word of Mouth
The best way to find a great insulation installer is through recommendations. Make sure you ask friends and family. They will most likely give you their honest opinion and can tell you from first hand experience.
Whether you require a wall, cladding, external wall, loft or floor insulation fitted, you can find and hire your local insulation installers from popular UK web pages. A simple internet search will return thousands of potential installers near your area.
