Since the publication of Building Regulations Part L, 2006, the new ‘u’ values for pitched warm roofs, where the insulation is above the rafter, is 0.18 – 0.20 W/m2K. Warm roofs, used to maximise living space and constructed using InSkews, have been shown to comply with these latest Part L Building Regulations.
- Complies with Building Regulations – Part L.
- Reduces heat loss and retained heat gain.
- Lagging of pipes and tanks eliminated.
- Reduces running costs.
- No cold bridging.
- Protection against damp and corrosion.
- Roof tile ventilation no longer required.
- Produces a Room-in-a-Roof space.
