FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT TERMIPROTEC
Does Termiprotec insulate from heat and also from cold?
Yes, Termiprotec insulates in both directions. When applied outdoors, it will behave as a thermal shield that prevents the entry of cold or heat, and applied indoors, due to its reflective power, it will act as a barrier that prevents the heat generated by your heating from escaping through the walls and when working with air conditioning preventing the cold from coming out. The consequences of these qualities are, on the one hand, better living comfort, but also and above all a reduction of up to 40% in heating or air conditioning consumption.
How much can we lower the temperature using Termiprotec paint?
In zinc roofing, decreases of up to 50% are observed. Inside some houses, reductions of between 5º and 8º degrees have been achieved. In industrial buildings, the difference has been between 4º and 12º degrees inside.
Why can't we give you an exact figure?
Because the success of a correct insulation does not depend only on painting with Termiprotec, but there are other factors such as windows, glass, the actual insulation of the walls or the internal circulation of air in the house that can favor or harm the thermal sensation inside the house.
