PONTAROLO VENTUS - Система вентилируемой кровли EPS
Moulded element in grey sintered expanded polystyrene (EPS) with excellent thermal insulation and vapour permeability characteristics. Unique in its kind, VENTUS is made with a special groove moulding that allows for ventilation, collection and downward channelling of any condensation that may form. The grooves, moreover, in the case of direct casting, allow for better anchoring of the concrete, giving the roof both insulation and mass. The element is supplied in 120 x 40 cm panels equipped with anchoring dowels and is available in different EPS thicknesses to provide the necessary roof insulation. The elements can be used in both roofs and under-floor slabs.
The VENTUS insulation board has a series of small grooves on the side facing upwards, which must be positioned from top to bottom when laying. These grooves have the important purpose of collecting and conveying any condensation that may have formed in the ventilation chamber to the eaves at the bottom. The VENTUS insulation panel is also ideal as underfloor insulation or flat roof insulation for the upper floor slab, as the grooves have the function of creating and guaranteeing a mechanical connection between the VENTUS and the slab, thus preventing movement and slipping of the concrete slab due to traffic vibrations or earthquakes.
