HOW SHOULD A Prefabricated House ROOF INSULATION BE?

When you build any prefabricated house, one of the most important parts of this house is its roof. The reason for this is that the roof of the building, like its foundation, is exposed to water, cold and heat. But of course, if the roof of the building is made properly and the insulation is done in the most correct way, these disadvantages can turn into advantages. Before examining in detail how the roof insulation should be, let's take a look at what is roof insulation if you want.

What is roof insulation?

Roof insulation, if I have to define it briefly, is a protection method that is made to protect the building from natural events such as sun, rain, hail, snow, while the roof is still under construction. The biggest reason for its construction is to protect the building from water and other factors and to extend the life of the building.

What are the benefits of roof insulation?

The most important point when making roof insulation is whether the insulation is done correctly. While a correct insulation provides great benefits for the building and the people living in the building, an incorrect insulation brings huge problems. Because wrongly done waterproofing means extra cost, while it brings very difficult processes to return. The material to be used for roof insulation should be chosen very well. The most important feature is that it is waterproof. It is also very important to use it for many years, so the selected material should be able to be used for many years without being affected by the seasons, with minimal damage from snow, heat and rain.

What options are available for roof insulation in prefabricated houses? 

1- Trapeze Sheet + Metal Tile Sheet Roof insulation application;

In this application, 10 cm mineral wool is used on the roof and trapezoidal or metal tile sheet is applied to the purlins on the steel roof.

2- OSB + Membrane + Trapezoidal Sheet Roof Insulation Application

In this application, 10 cm mineral wool is used on the roof and the osb + membrane is hit on the steel roof (the purpose of this osb + membrane is to reduce the water insulation of the building to zero and not to let the sounds of rain on the roof into the house), and trapezoidal or metal tile sheet is hit on the purlins.

3- Sandwich Panel Application Roof insulation Application

The sandwich panel application used on the roof provides the best insulation, and the sandwich panel brings the roof insulation to the best level.
Therefore, it is the right choice to use sandwich panels whenever possible.

How is roof insulation done?

If I need to explain this through an example, in a structure where metal tile will be applied, insulation can be made with osb + membrane, which is laid under the tile and fixed while it is under construction. The most important point is that if the membrane or other waterproof material is to be used, that material should be fixed carefully without puncturing it. It is very important for roof insulation to be done carefully, especially in areas with chimneys, curved or curved areas. Because, as mentioned before, an improper isolation causes huge problems.

What is a membrane?

Membrane is the most preferred material for roof insulation and has a waterproof structure. But as we said, the more important the material, the more important is the application of the material.
