In order to distribute the hot water produced by burning fuel in the boiler or combi boiler to the environment with full efficiency and to prevent heat loss, boiler room insulation must be performed.

Within the scope of the thermal insulation regulation in buildings, it is mandatory for structures with boiler rooms to have insulation.

Boiler room insulation,

– Prevents heat loss.

– Provides efficient fuel consumption.

– Provides energy savings.

– Provides fuel savings.

In boiler rooms sized according to fuel type, the insulation process varies according to the boiler and fuel used. If it is a converted boiler room, certain measurements must be made to understand whether insulation is required and to decide what kind of insulation will be made if necessary.

If insulation is required for an old type boiler room, measurements must be made to decide on the type of insulation. Insulation in an old type boiler room can be much more costly than in a converted boiler room.

Depending on the age and performance of the boiler used in old type boiler rooms, there is a possibility of more heat loss. The higher the heat loss measured, the more intensive the insulation process should be.

Sound insulation can be done in addition to heat insulation for boiler rooms. Since heat loss affects energy efficiency and fuel consumption, priority should be given to heat insulation. In addition, since a converted boiler room will operate as quietly as possible, sound insulation may not be necessary.

How is Boiler Room Insulation Performed?

The purpose of boiler room insulation is to prevent heat loss from the boiler rather than the insulation of the room. Therefore, the systems used in the boiler installation and providing the passage of hot air / water produced are insulated first. Then, the room can be insulated to minimize heat loss. Insulation also minimizes the interaction of the heat outside with the system. Thus, the air heated by the boiler is not affected by the cold air outside and there is no heat loss. In addition, the pipes used in the system installation are also provided with a longer life. When a pipe with hot air / water flow inside interacts with the cold air outside, the probability of damage will be much higher. In this case, it can cause the life of the boiler used to be shortened and to malfunction frequently.

In order for the boiler you use to have a long life, to save energy and to work efficiently, boiler room insulation is the first condition. You can directly contact SALT Engineering for boiler room insulation processes and benefit from the free survey service. After the survey, an insulation project is prepared for your area by expert engineers and if you approve the project, the boiler room insulation process is carried out as quickly as possible.
