Insulation Supports

Ensuring the stability and longevity of your insulation materials is paramount to maintaining an energy-efficient space. At Insulation4Less, we provide a comprehensive range of insulation supports that cater to diverse insulation installation requirements, both in residential and commercial settings. Dive into the vast array of options available, all designed to deliver optimal support and secure positioning for your insulation materials.

Various Types and Uses of Insulation Supports

10mm Insulation Supports

Uses & Applications:

10mm insulation supports are designed to offer superior hold and stability for rigid board insulation, typically in walls and floors, where the thickness and weight of the insulation materials demand robust support. These supports are known for their prowess in ensuring that larger and denser insulation boards remain firmly in place, combating gravity and other physical stresses that may jeopardise the integrity and performance of the insulation.

Guidance:

In scenarios where you are handling denser and thicker insulation materials, especially in vertical applications, 10mm insulation supports act as a steadfast anchor, minimising the risks of sagging or displacement over time.

4.5mm Insulation Supports

Uses & Applications:

The 4.5mm insulation supports cater to lightweight and potentially more flexible insulation materials, often utilised in areas like internal walls, underfloor heating systems, or ceilings, where the emphasis is on maintaining a consistent and unbroken insulation layer. With 100 fixings per pack, they’re well-suited to larger scale installations or for applications where a multitude of fixings is needed to assure an even and secure hold across the insulation material.

Guidance:

Choose 4.5mm insulation supports for scenarios where you’re dealing with lighter, potentially flexible insulation materials, ensuring that the entirety of the material is supported, nullifying potential gaps or sags that could compromise thermal performance.

8mm Insulation Supports

Uses & Applications:

Balancing between the robustness of 10mm supports and the gentle hold of 4.5mm variants, 8mm insulation supports find their application across a spectrum of insulation types and scenarios. Often used in both wall and floor insulations where medium-density insulation materials are employed, these supports offer a sturdy grip, ensuring that the insulating materials maintain their position and effectiveness over an extended period.

Guidance:

When dealing with medium-density insulation materials, or in scenarios where both hold and subtlety are required, 8mm insulation supports act as a versatile and reliable option, securing your insulation without imposing too much structural pressure.

Selecting Appropriate Insulation Supports

When it comes to selecting the most suitable insulation support:

• Assess Material Weight and Density: Heavier and denser materials generally require thicker supports like the 10mm variant.
• Consider Application Area: The nature and location of your insulation installation (walls, floors, ceilings) will influence the thickness and type of supports required.
• Understand the Long-Term Durability Required: Environments with variable temperatures or physical stresses might demand robust supports to counteract potential wear and displacement over time.
