Picking the right product
Fire considerations
PIR is a combustible product. Building regulations restrict combustible materials in some situations, such as external walls of taller buildings; check what applies.
Sealing joints
Tape the joints with foil tape so the foil layer works as a continuous vapour control layer where the design relies on it.
In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.
Sizing your order
Insulating 30 m² of rafters, floor or wall takes 12 boards of 2400 × 1200 mm including offcuts. The thickness depends on the U-value you need, so check it before you order. Try the insulation calculator
Ordering PIR insulation boards for Ashington: FAQs
How thick should PIR insulation be?
It depends on where it goes and the U-value required. Pitched roofs often need 100 mm or more between and under rafters; floors and walls vary. Use the maker's U-value tables or ask your designer.
Can I add other materials to my Ashington delivery?
Yes. Put everything on one list, from PIR insulation boards to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
Can PIR be used in external walls?
In some situations, but building regulations restrict combustible insulation in external walls of certain buildings. Check the rules for your building.
Is there a minimum order for delivery to Ashington?
There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
