Thermability Pro

When a wall gets wet, it gets cold... and cold walls allow heat to escape readily form a building...

Thermability Pro is a unique, scientifically tested masonry treatment cream that will keep walls dry and increase the thermal efficiency of masonry. The simple one-coat product application dries colourless and will not affect the appearance of the masonry in any way.

Thermability Pro works on brick, stone and concrete.

By lining the pores of the masonry with specially formulated silanes and siloxanes, Thermability Pro allows walls to breathe while limiting heat loss.

The UK Government has set a target of an 80% reduction in carbon emissions in buildings by 2050. Currently a third of Britain's housing stock has solid wall construction with walls that are difficult to insulate conventionally.

Thermability Pro provides a cost-effective means of improving the thermal efficiency of single skin brick or stone without the need for unattractive external cladding or dimension-reducing internal insulation.

Test data show that dry bricks have approximately twice the thermal efficiency of saturated bricks.

Experiments in various simulated weather conditions were carried out to determine the heating energy required for an untreated house and a house treated with Thermability Pro. The results showed that in damp weather, the treated house used 5-9% less energy.

 

 

SAP Analysis1 carried out by a leading UK University showed that when driving rain was present, the energy saving in the treated house increased to 29%.
