WHAT ARE ENERGY-EFFICIENT HOUSES?

Energy-efficient construction solution!


Building an energy-efficient and long-lasting house is a real challenge for every builder.

A house must be easy and convenient to built and cost-effective to use later.


The main priority of building an enrgy-efficient house is to reduce the number of external energy sources to a minimum. Solar power and heat generated by people and home

appliances is usually enough to warm up a well-insulated and properly ventilated house.

One only needs a modest energy boost during cold winters.


Depending on the need for primary energy sources, energy-plus-houses, zero energy houses, net-zero energy houses and other houses with a low energy consumption can be considered energy-saving buildings. What they all have in common:


  • Compact design and good insulation.
  • Faced southwards and with a clever use of sun blinds: the placement and quality of windows, allow taking advantage of passive solar energy.
  • Energy-efficient windows, including frames and panes of glass.
  • Air-tightness of walls and ceilings.
  • Efficient heat recovery from air going out of the building by using heat recovery ventilation systems: most of the heat is extracted from the outgoing air and used to warm up the incoming air (the heat recovery efficiency factor is over 80%).
  • Renewable energy sources are used to produce hot water: solar batteries or thermal pumps provide sufficient energy.
  • Energy-efficient home appliances.






The TermoBlock Silver product range is the right choice for everyone who wants to build a house on their own or use the expert advice of construction companies.


The TermoBlock Silver product range is perfect for building modern energy-efficient houses.


TermoPlokk Silver products have been designed to meet all requirements set for energy-efficient houses.







Using the L-Plokk, the A-Plokk, and EPS  100 Silver, it is easier and faster to build the foundations and floors of energy-efficient houses.

The L-Plokk is designed for use in the construction of plate foundations.

The A-Plokk is designed for use in the construction of crawlspace foundation footings.

EPS 100 Silver is designed for use in the construction of heavily loaded and well-insulated floors.

The thermal conductivity for EPS 100 Silver is lamda = 0.030 W/mK!


       Benefits:


  • The foundation can be constructed without the use of planking.
  • The foundation is insulated immediately and without any thermal bridges.
  • Easy and convenient installation.
  • Significantly fewer work hours.
