Abstract

One of the key energy efficiency measures in residential buildings is to reduce the load on heating and cooling when in outer structures such as walls and ceiling a thermal insulation material is included in order to reduce the losses caused by heating and cooling, air and moisture penetration. It depends on the climate zone of the building, structural construction, heat and cold sources, prices for fuel and electricity in that region. It can be different in every specific case, so it is of high necessity to determine the optimal thickness of the used thermal insulation, the location of the installation. Below are the features and the need to introduce thermal insulation in newly constructed and operated buildings. The influence of the presence of thermal insulation in the construction industry on the cold load necessary for cooling and the pattern of changes in the cost with and without the presence of thermal insulation was investigated.
