Heat transfers
principles
Convection
Movement of a fluid due to
a
difference
of
temperature and density.
The hot air goes up and
heat is dissipated. With a
ventilated roof, the heat
located in the air gap
between the hedging and
Skytech goes up then is
evacuated on the level of
the ventilation holes and
the ridge.
Conduction
Transmission of heat of a
body to
another by
contact.
The
more
insulating the material is,
the
less
there
is
conduction.
The
characteristic
measures
the conduction in a
specific material
Thermal
radiation
Transmission of heat of a
body to
another by

The
more

Conclusion
As thermal radiance is the most important source of heat transfer, reflective
insulation is the most efficient way to reduce heat transfer to obtain a higher level of
comfort by reflecting the heat.

Other advantages
EASY TO INSTALL
Installation time is divided by 2.
Instead of installing two products: reflective
insulation + roof underlayment, you only
install 1: SKYTECH.
GAIN IN ROOM SURFACE
Average gain of 5% in walls
Average gain of 15% in attic rooms
SKYTECH makes it possible to leave the
framing (beams, rafters) apparent..
LONG LASTING INSULATION
SKYTECH is composed of continuous E
glass filaments (already used in high
temperatures industry). These filaments are
very resistant; they have an expected life of
more than 50 years.
SKYTECH also avoids nesting of rodents.
HEALTHY COMPONENTS
SKYTECH is guarantee free of asbestos and
chemical binders.
Skytech is non toxic and non irritant (Group 3
of IARC)
No specific equipment is required to install
Skytech except sunglasses because of its
very important reflection power.
SKYTECH is 100% recyclable
and
composed with a broad proportion of recycled
materials (more than 90 %).
FIRE RESISTANCE
SKYTECH has obtained an European
certification of non combustibility (Euroclass
A2-s1,d0).
Because
Skytech
is non
combustible, it will protect your roof structure
from wild fires and can be installed directly to
your chimney flue.

Fixations
Installation should be done the same way as the one used to fix
roofing materials (battens and counter battens).
However, when temporarily install, SKYTECH should be fix
using staples or screws.
Oxidation
In order to prevent oxidation, do not install Skytech in direct
contact with copper, brass or lead.
Overlap of panels
The minimum overlapping of panels considering the slope of the
roof can be found in the following board.
