Abstract
The assessment of the performance of organic and mineral-based insulation products used in exterior walls and attics in traditional Danish housing estate was evaluated. The assessment covered the ability of the materials to be handled on site as well as measurements of the performance of the materials once installed and exposed to normal use of the dwellings and Danish weather conditions over a 2-year period. Evaluations were based on, on-site observations, thermographic observations and measurements of temperature and moisture conditions within the different materials used. Eight different products were used for thermal insulation including six organic and two mineral fibre materials. Loose-fill material and predefined fixed-shape products were used. The eight different products were installed in 16 dwellings, two neighbouring dwellings were insulated with each product. Exterior walls were constructed without PE vapour barriers while ceilings were constructed with PE vapour barriers.
