Frameless insulated hangar insulation thickness. Frameless hangars insulation. Alternative insulation options

Hangars are an integral part of today's business, they are used to store various products, as production sites, as parking lots for vehicles, warehouses, etc. The design of hangars can be varied, they are made of various materials- concrete, blocks, bricks, but still the most widespread are light hangars made of metal profile, frame and frameless. In any case, the main problem of the owners of any hangar or warehouse is the problem of heating a huge volume of premises, because it is difficult and expensive to warm up such an area, and if you take a hangar from a metal profile, it’s almost impossible.

And if there is a need for a warm warehouse and the problem of heating the hangar is solved by installing various heating appliances, then I would like to reduce heating costs to a minimum, which means it is necessary to reduce heat losses - the question of warming the hangar arises. With a huge variety of insulating materials on today's market, this issue should be approached as responsibly as possible, it is desirable to carry out the work on warming the hangar forever so as not to return to this costly issue for the entire life of the premises, warehouse. Classic technologies insulation in relation to hangars are often ineffective and simply uneconomical when compared with modern way insulation - sprayed polyurethane foam.

Hangar insulation cost:

Polyurethane foam (PPU) is a high-quality heat-insulating material that has become very widespread in the insulation of such complex facilities as hangars, vegetable stores, warehouses, etc. Such distribution is associated both with the highest operational properties and with the manufacturability of the method of its application - PPU is sprayed directly onto the insulated surface and forms a seamless coating without fasteners and cold bridges. This effect cannot be achieved when using mineral wool or sheet polystyrene - there will always be gaps and gaps at the junctions and joints, in such places freezing and condensation is possible.

Rigid, closed-cell polyurethane foam is a vapor-tight material, which means that it does not require the use of an additional layer of a vapor barrier membrane, which is mandatory when using the same mineral wool, which means a reduction in the cost of money and time for its installation. In any case, the fastening of such films and even the sheet or plate insulation to metal or concrete (the base of the hangar) is a very time-consuming process, especially when insulating the roof of the hangar at high altitude. Spraying of polyurethane foam occurs at a speed of up to 500 m 2 per shift, and PPU can be freely sprayed both on walls (inside and outside) and on horizontal surfaces (ceiling) from the bottom up, while maintaining excellent adhesion to any base.



All this makes sprayed polyurethane foam an extremely effective material for thermal insulation of buildings. large area and volume with big amount complex, curved surfaces, revealing its many advantages:

Advantages of PPU spraying when insulating hangars and warehouses:

  • the coefficient of thermal conductivity of PPU is only 0.019 W / m * K, 50 mm polyurethane foam - an analogue of 100-120 mm mineral wool;
  • high speed of insulation - up to 500 m 2 in one working day;
  • PPU spraying is carried out directly on the surface to be insulated without preparation with very high adhesion to any building material;
  • the resulting coating has no seams and gaps, there are no fastening elements, and hence cold bridges;
  • it is possible to spray a layer of any thickness depending on the tasks at hand;
  • no need to use a vapor barrier membrane, polyurethane foam does not absorb or pass moisture;
  • suitable for both internal and external insulation of hangars, sprayed onto the surface of any relief and shape;
  • PPU does not emit extraneous odors and is environmentally friendly, which means it can be used for insulating warehouses with food products, including vegetable stores;
  • low density avoids additional loads on the hangar structure, which is especially valuable when insulating old hangars;
  • the service life of polyurethane foam insulation is more than 50 years, the issue of insulation is resolved once and for all;
  • sprayed polyurethane foam can bind structural elements and strengthen them, has an anti-corrosion effect on the metal, and therefore extends the life of the entire structure;
  • it is possible to carry out work on the insulation of hangars, including in winter.

Occurs through the enclosing structures. For this reason, the operation of such structures is difficult if it is necessary to create a given air temperature inside the hangar in the winter season. Frameless hangars: insulation - optimal solution will use such thermal insulation materials like mineral wool or polyurethane foam. Each of these materials has its own performance, advantages and installation features. It is recommended to build an initially warm hangar. This will save time and money. The price of insulated frameless hangars will generally be lower than building a cold room and insulating it in the future.

Warming with mineral wool

For the manufacture of mineral wool, limestone, soda, sand and glass are used, which determines the excellent performance of this material:

  • Low thermal conductivity allows you to create quality protection from heat loss.
  • A high degree of sound insulation makes it possible to prevent the penetration of noise into the hangar.
  • Long service life without performance degradation.
  • Excluded mechanical damage or deformation due to prolonged mechanical load on the surface.
  • Mineral wool is a non-combustible material, does not contain hazardous to humans or environment substances.

The only drawback of mineral wool insulation is its high hygroscopicity, which obliges to take additional measures moisture protection of this material.

Mineral wool installation technology

When frameless hangars are built: insulation is the next step. Work using mineral wool is carried out in the following sequence:

  1. In the process of performing work on the installation of the arch, the installation of embedded parts is carried out.
  2. Embedded parts act as a support for mounting the battens from a galvanized corner and a board treated with an antiseptic.
  3. Produce installation of slabs of mineral wool to complete overlap inner surface.
  4. The entire surface of the thermal insulation material is protected with a vapor barrier film.
  5. The inner surface of the frameless hangar is lined with a profiled galvanized steel sheet.


The use of such a technology for insulating hangars can effectively reduce heat losses, eliminate freezing of the walls and accumulation of condensate in the heat-insulating material.

Insulation with polyurethane foam

Polyurethane foam (PPU) is a modern heat-insulating material in the form of a gas-filled thermoset infusible mass. The cellular structure of polyurethane foam provides numerous advantages of this material:

  • A high degree of thermal insulation, which allows you to create high-quality thermal insulation protection of enclosing structures.
  • The high degree of sound absorption provides effective sound insulation.
  • Excellent adhesion to all types of surfaces: steel, wood, concrete, brick and others.
  • The application of PPU on the surface is carried out by spraying, which takes a minimum of time and effort.
  • High degree of resistance to moisture.
  • When applying PPU, there are no connecting or technological seams.
  • Good elasticity, which helps to prevent deformation and cracking during mechanical shocks.
  • High resistance to the spread of fungi, mold and other microorganisms.
  • Lack of reaction when exposed to chemically active substances.

One of the significant disadvantages of polyurethane foam is a high degree of degradation due to exposure to ultraviolet radiation. For this reason, it is not recommended to use it when insulating the outer surface of the hangar.

Polyurethane foam application technology


When frameless hangars are built: insulation is the next stage, which occurs as follows:

Polyurethane foam is applied to the inner surface of the hangar by mixing a liquid solution of polyol and isocyanate in a high-pressure dispenser. The result is a finely dispersed aerosol that has high adhesion and is able to penetrate into the most inaccessible places and crevices. After applying PPU on the surface of the walls of the hangar, it acquires a hardness of 90% of the nominal value during the first two hours. After the first day after application, it completely passes into a solid state up to 100% of the specified strength. Insulation of frameless hangars with polyurethane foam occurs as soon as possible. To protect the heat-insulating material from damage and to give the inner surface high aesthetic qualities, the installation of a profiled galvanized sheet on a pre-mounted crate is used. This helps protect the foam from thermal and mechanical stress, which can cause its destruction or loss of performance.

Hangar insulation will keep your property in perfect condition

The hangar is one of the most sought-after structures in agriculture, industry and the military sector. If you are building hangars, insulation is an extremely necessary procedure. After all, it is with the help of it that it is possible to maintain the optimal temperature and humidity conditions.

Of course, there are other ways to preserve the necessary conditions. But, as a rule, the purchase and Maintenance special equipment is unreasonably expensive. Insulation performed by professionals helps to avoid huge heating bills and eliminate significant heat losses in winter time of the year.

What and how to insulate the hangar, experts decide based on a combination of factors such as:

  • climatic conditions (humidity, maximum and minimum temperature);
  • the purpose of the facility (what exactly is stored there, because the storage conditions for equipment and products differ);
  • construction of the building (frameless hangar, frame tent, frame metal);
  • fluctuations in temperature and humidity inside the room.

In some cases, the inverse task is required from the insulation - to keep not heat, but cold inside the hangar (for example, in ice complexes). The material "Tepofol" also copes with this task perfectly well.

The hangar is insulated by the Tepofol company using its own patented technology. Average turnaround time is 5-7 days.

Warming various types hangars with sprayed polyurethane foam in the agricultural complex

In this article, we will try to reasonably substantiate the thesis, stating that today one of the most effective, inexpensive and quick ways thermal insulation of large non-residential premises is an insulation with sprayed polyurethane foam density PPU from 45-60kg/m3 freon based.

Probably, it will not be a revelation for anyone that a building of a huge area and height, which does not have high-quality thermal insulation, can bankrupt its owner in one winter due to astronomical heating costs. You do not need to have knowledge in the field of higher mathematics in order to calculate how much it will cost to heat volumes measured in tens of thousands of cubic meters.

If such a building is not located in a subtropical climate zone and the average winter temperature outside its walls fluctuates below zero on the thermometer scale, the only solution to the problem of maintaining the required temperature inside is high-quality thermal insulation. No one will argue with this axiomatic statement. Another issue is the choice of the type of this thermal insulation and the material on the basis of which it will be implemented. Let's make a brief analysis of the main heat-insulating materials and impartially compare their advantages and disadvantages.

The main types of heat-insulating materials for the insulation of the hangar

First of all, it should be noted that all heat-insulating materials are divided into two main groups - inorganic and organic.

Inorganic thermal insulation materials

The most common inorganic thermal insulation materials include the following:

mineral wool ;

glass fiber (glass wool);

foam glass.

We will not go into the intricacies of the technology for the production of these materials, since this is of little interest to the end user. Let's take a look at their properties.

All of the above materials are characterized by fire resistance, low thermal conductivity and resistance to chemical and biological (mold, pests) influences. However, despite the above advantages, they also have a number of serious disadvantages. Mineral wool And fiberglass they are highly hygroscopic, which leads to the fact that these heat-insulating materials become completely unusable after a few years, if they are not impregnated with special water-repellent (giving water-repellent properties) compounds, and mineral wool also requires mandatory waterproofing.

The above disadvantages are devoid of such insulation like foam glass, but it has a high rigidity, which limits its use in conditions where the surface has a complex shape.

For the most part, the above-mentioned heaters are supplied in the form of blocks, which are fixed with the help of fasteners of one type or another on the walls of the room to be insulated. This inevitably leads to the fact that the integrity of the structure is damaged, which, in turn, reduces its service life to a greater or lesser extent. It is also possible to fix these materials with glue, but this method also has its drawbacks: the glue does not hold so firmly, and as a result of temperature changes, delamination of certain sections of the insulation may occur. With both methods of fastening, due to the fact that thermal insulation coating is not monolithic, so-called cold bridges will inevitably occur, reducing the overall effectiveness of the heat-insulating layer.

You can also mention in this section such material as foam concrete, which is not just T heat-insulating material, and building material with low thermal conductivity. But it's still construction material not a heater.

Organic thermal insulation materials

The most common organic thermal insulation materials include the following:

polystyrene or Styrofoam;

polyethylene foam;

polyurethane foam.

We are all familiar with the first type of the aforementioned organic heaters from childhood: which of us did not get our beloved parents, driving a piece polystyrene on glass? This light material 90% consists of air, and air, as you know, good heat insulator. Insulation with expanded polystyrene has long been widely used, but this material has one significant drawback - it is very fragile.

Polyethylene foam- one of the most promising modern materials, which has almost all the advantages of polyurethane foam, which will be discussed a little lower. But it also has a significant drawback - like any polyethylene, it is not heat resistant.

Now let's move on to considering the properties of polyurethane foam - a material that combines everything positive traits the aforementioned heat insulators and practically not having their shortcomings.

One of the main advantages of polyurethane foam is the possibility of spraying onto a surface of any size and shape, which results in a uniform layer of heat insulator without any joints or gaps. The result is a complete absence of cold bridges.

Due to the fact that polyurethane foam has exceptionally high adhesion to surfaces of almost any type, the possibility of delamination of the heat-insulating layer is completely excluded. In addition, spraying technology significantly reduces the time required for thermal insulation of various buildings.

polyurethane foam very effective and light: a ten-centimeter layer of this substance is equivalent in its heat-insulating properties brickwork two and a half meters thick. The lightness of the material under consideration is due to the fact that it is 85% - 97% (depending on density) consists of air or gases.

Polyurethane foam is heat-resistant and frost-resistant, which allows it to be used in all climatic zones. It does not require any additional waterproofing, and even more than that - its rigid variety itself can serve as an excellent waterproofing agent and is widely used in construction as such.

For another benefit this material can be classified as excellent soundproofing properties.

In view of the foregoing, we can safely say that it is polyurethane foam that is most suitable for insulating metal structures such as hangars. The lightness of polyurethane foam allows not to overload the structure of sheet metal a little more than 1 mm thick; heat resistance will be needed during the hot summer months when metal heats up to very high temperatures; frost resistance allows you not to be afraid for the strength of the insulating layer even in severe frosts, and the absence of cracks ensures that not a single drop of precious heat seeps out. If we add to this the speed with which insulation is made with polyurethane foam, it becomes clear that prefabricated hangars and this heater is simply made for each other.

Qualitatively insulated small aircraft hangar - not only the most appropriate place for the parking of a private aircraft, but also a source of pride, especially if its construction with further arrangement was carried out by you yourself. Such premises are suitable for parking and maintenance not only aircraft, but also other large equipment. Next, we will consider the insulation of the hangar with our own hands, key principles material selection and phased insulation technique.

How to properly insulate a hangar?

The construction of a hangar must be accompanied by the observance of all necessary conditions for storing aircraft, and the mandatory insulation of walls and ceilings is one of them, since the equipment is sensitive to humidity and sudden changes in temperature.

Optimal aircraft storage conditions.

Air vehicles require proper operation, maintenance and storage, especially if we are talking about a private jet or helicopter. Having decided to buy such equipment, do not rush to show everyone around your expensive acquisition, since it is of paramount importance to carefully consider and provide the necessary conditions for storage and regular maintenance.
Design features of small aircraft hangars:

  1. Aircraft should be stored in a well-ventilated, wide-bay hangar. Internal supports may be missing.
  2. Smaller structures are allowed for the storage of helicopters.

In both cases, the room must be insulated, since such equipment should not be exposed to the negative effects of weather factors, otherwise breakdowns are inevitable, but after all, you cannot just stop an emergency aircraft for regular repair work. How can these conditions be achieved and what needs to be done to achieve this?

Hangar insulation methods

A technology that involves both external and internal insulation of the walls of the hangar is the most effective option, since it will be warm outside and inside, and the structure itself will not be subject to corrosion. This is especially true in those cases when it is supposed to insulate a metal hangar. Heating costs will be significantly reduced, but due to the cost of this method, it is customary to choose only one of two options:

  1. External insulation involves the installation of insulation with outside and given building standards, this method is the most correct. Besides, effective area the hangar itself remains the same.
  2. The choice of internal insulation is fraught with the formation of condensation between cold wall and a warm layer of insulation, there is a high risk of freezing of the walls. If in this case also use foam, moisture will form at the junction and soon the structure will collapse. Harmful fumes during insulation from the inside are released into the room, especially if you give preference to mineral wool, glass wool or polystyrene. To avoid these troubles, take the choice of the manufacturer of the heat-insulating material with due seriousness and observe technological process. Cheap insulation is always a risk of poisoning with hydrogen cyanide, hydrogen bromide, styrene or phosgene.

How to insulate a hangar?

Brands and properties of heaters

The choice of material for thermal insulation of a small aircraft hangar directly affects the material costs, since the dimensions of the premises under consideration are more impressive compared to an ordinary garage or residential building. The configuration of the structure also plays an important role, since in certain cases there are obstacles to the use of sheet materials.

Principles for choosing a heater

  1. Price is a factor of choice that many people are guided by. First of all, you should calculate the budget and then proceed to other indicators.
  2. Be sure to consider technology, as internal insulation safety and the thickness of the heat insulator are decisive factors, while outdoor work can be done using any raw material.
  3. The hangar room is different high humidity, so it is worth paying attention to corrosion prevention and moisture absorption properties.
  4. Not every aircraft storage facility is designed to high loads, so the mass of insulation should be negligible.
  5. Provide for the possibility of repair work, calculate how costly they will be and try to choose the most durable insulation.
  6. The performance of a material is determined by comparing thermal conductivity values, for example, cinder block wall a meter thick corresponds to a five centimeter layer of polystyrene foam, which has an indicator of 0.037 W / mK.
  7. Do not forget to take into account the material of construction. Metal structures should be additionally upholstered plywood sheets, under which there will be a layer of thermal insulation. Liquid materials are perfect for such purposes: apply a couple of layers of thermal insulation, taking into account the daily technological break to ensure intermediate drying. Brick hangars require the creation of a wall with insulation material, in the role of which foam can act. When choosing a similar material, provide effective protection against rodents by sheathing the surface with clapboard.

Types of heaters

Almost all modern thermal insulation materials have a lot of advantages, but each of them is not suitable for every type of structure. Let's look at their difference and the relevance of the choice in specific cases.


Main stages of work

The process of insulation starts from the ceiling of the hangar, goes to the walls and ends with a gate. Next, detailed technology for each section of the structure will be considered.

Hangar ceiling insulation

Glass wool is most often preferred, if necessary, to insulate the roof of the hangar. Glass wool with a dense structure in the form of rolls is suitable for pitched roofs. The process of installing a heat insulator involves the imposition of material between the rafters by surprise, if the bars are thick enough to provide ventilation between the hydrobarrier and the insulation. In other cases, a heat insulator 10 cm thick is mounted on top of the rafters. Next, cover the structure with a vapor barrier and fill the bars for further fixation facing materials. It can be fiberglass board, lining or drywall.

Hangar wall insulation

As mentioned earlier, the installation of thermal insulation materials can be carried out inside or outside the hangar. Taking this fact into account, we will consider detailed technologies insulation.
