Polynor is a polyurethane foam insulation material developed jointly by construction companies. The Polynor product received good reviews from consumers as a modern material, ideally suited for heat and sound insulation. In addition, the scope of its application is wide, which opens up great opportunities for insulation work.
Consumer properties
Like any insulation material, Polynor has several advantages:
- It features excellent heat saving. These indicators for a heater are higher in comparison with expanded polystyrene and mineral wool.
- Non toxicity. About the Polinor product, consumer reviews are not bad, since it is not poisonous and protective equipment are not required when using it.
- Ease of use. When applying POLYNOR, a heat-insulating layer is created for which the frame is not needed as a fastener. Also, tools and auxiliary materials are not required.
- Excellent grip. The composition quickly adheres to any surface - brick, wood, plastic, stone, concrete, which significantly expands the scope of its application.
Polinor insulation is very popular due to the fact that it is applied by spraying. This affects the best adhesion of different surfaces, even if they are not very smooth. Very often this insulation is used for finishing hard-to-reach places, for example, where pipes or cables are laid.
Where is it used?
The one-component POLYNOR is widely used for heat and sound insulation of the following elements:
- facades;
- loggias;
- terraces and verandas;
- attics and attics;
- basements;
- residential premises - apartments, houses;
- production facilities;
- pipeline systems, utilities;
- thermos vans.
Application features
About Polinor insulation, consumer reviews are quite common, due to the ease of use. The principle of working with it is as follows:
- Preparation of the working surface for further finishing. To do this, you need to rid it of spots, dirt, and moisturize it well.
- The cylinder with insulation should be in the room at a temperature of at least 18 degrees.
- Before work, you need to put on the cylinder a special nozzle, which is included, until it clicks.
- Remove the cover from the cross and screw the gun onto the base. By the way, it is not included in the package. During this procedure, the cylinder should be upright.
- The balloon shakes well.
- The sprayed insulation is easily applied by dosing by pressing the trigger of the gun. You need to spray a layer with a thickness of not more than 5 cm.
During operation, it is recommended to shake the balloon. To clean the gun after completion of the insulation, you need to use a special PULP Cleaner fluid.
Due to its ease of use, Polynor insulation is very popular in everyday life. The instructions for its use are simple, so even a novice user can handle it. As already mentioned, you can apply the material only on a cleaned surface. Moreover, if work is carried out with a galvanized profiled metal sheet, first you need to wipe its surface, remove all stains and oil film from it, which is always on the metal due to the characteristics of the process. Aerosol heating is necessary so that the mass in the container does not freeze and is sprayed uniformly.
Using the nozzle
"Polinor" is a sprayable insulation that is applied with a special plastic spray nozzle. It is mounted on the tip of a conventional mounting gun, and for this you need to remove the nozzle from the spray gun, press it to the tip of the gun, then insert it into the spray nozzle until it clicks. The main thing is to prevent too much load, as this can lead to cracking of the nozzle body. Do not use the nozzle to work with ordinary mounting foam.
After the insulation is applied, you can treat it with water with a conventional sprayer for the garden - this will help accelerate the polymerization and better foaming of the newly created heat-insulating layer.
We follow the rules
As already mentioned, about the tool "Polinor" consumer reviews are common. With the simplicity of its use, you need to approach this process as responsibly as possible. Firstly, when spraying, the not yet hardened mass in the form of foam can irritate the skin, eyes, and respiratory organs. To avoid this, you need to use traditional safety equipment in the form of gloves, glasses. And if the decoration is carried out from the inside and the room is difficult to ventilate, you need a respirator when working. If, however, the foam gets into your eyes or skin, you need to treat them with warm water.
There are good reviews about Polynor insulation, but when using it, you should remember that the cylinder contains gas, which is a blowing agent. It is heavier than air and is combustible. Therefore, spraying should ideally be carried out in well-ventilated areas. Important: when using the Polinor indoors, you must not smoke and / or work near an open flame.
Polynor for the floor
This sprayed insulation is ideal for providing comfort in the room. Thanks to the competent thermal insulation of the floors, you can make the room warmer, while saving on additional heating. Moreover, you can use "Polynor" on your own - this does not require special knowledge. The peculiarities of its use are that it is sprayed onto an already prepared surface and easily adheres to any material - from brick to wood and plastic.
As a heater, Polynor received positive reviews:
- A comfortable room temperature is maintained.
- A low degree of water absorption eliminates the need for a vapor barrier.
- The material contributes to good vapor, hydro and sound insulation.
Cellar insulation: cheap and high quality
When decorating a house or apartment, we are looking for high-quality materials, which at the same time would be economical. One of the materials that meet these requirements can be called a Polynor insulation. The price starts from 400 rubles per spray bottle. That is why it is often used when it is necessary to insulate a cellar. When carrying out these works, the dimensions of the foundation and the height of the base should be taken into account. Most often, polystyrene is used to warm the basement, but working with it is not easy, so many people prefer the more economical option - Polynor. The distinctive features of its application include:
- There is no need for the construction of the frame, since the insulation is sprayed directly to the surface. The material fills all microcracks, due to which reliable thermal insulation is provided.
- Polinor is characterized by high thermal conductivity, so you can apply it with a small thickness.
- Simple installation allows you to do insulation with your own hands without the use of a special tool.
- Polinor does not absorb moisture, therefore it serves as an excellent waterproofing layer.
- After applying the insulation layer, it can be further treated - painted or plastered.
How to soundproof the ceiling?
The noise in the apartment does not surprise anyone, but it can be minimized with the help of a building sprayed thermal insulation Polynor. Customer reviews about it are enthusiastic, and not only affordable price and ease of use are noted, but also high rates of sound insulation. What are the benefits of using this particular material? Firstly, it needs to be applied with a very small layer, so your ceilings will practically not lose in height. Secondly, silence and tranquility will finally reign in your house, because the material perfectly absorbs all noise due to the level of sound-absorbing characteristics, as well as due to its high density and elasticity.
"Polynor" - a heater, the price of which cannot but rejoice. When installing it, again, the erection of the frame is not required, since, solidifying, he himself forms it. And after the hardening of the foam, you can treat the surface with plaster or paint. Another important point - to install this building insulation, now you do not need to call professionals - sound insulation can be done independently!
We insulate the roof
"Polynor" is a universal material through which you can perform a number of insulation work in the house. As for the arrangement of the roof, experts advise to pay close attention to this process and not to choose materials that are too cheap. However, many modern builders prefer a material such as Polynor. Its price is affordable, but in terms of surface quality it is not inferior to expensive analogues. To warm the roof was done correctly, you must follow the work procedure.
Stages of roof insulation
As you know, any roof consists of several materials:
- Directly roofing material in the form of roofing material, metal.
- Wooden crates.
- Vapor barrier.
- Waterproofing.
Most often, mineral wool or fiberglass is chosen as a heater for the roof , and this is understandable: they are distinguished by a breathable structure, are distinguished by good vapor permeability, and are resistant to fire and ventilated. On the other hand, these materials can sag; accordingly, cold bridges will form. Secondly, due to changes in temperature and humidity, the insulation can collapse and lose all its protective properties.
Thermal insulation with modern material
Polinor - a heater, the price and characteristics of which cannot but rejoice. Firstly, when using it, you do not need to call for the help of experienced professionals, since spraying can be done independently. Secondly, this insulation fully meets the requirements of vapor permeability and at the same time serves as a reliable protection against moisture. Thirdly, when Polinor is sprayed, joints and cold bridges are not formed , and the insulated roof becomes unified and whole. Accordingly, it will be provided with good waterproofing.
Warming at home or bath
One of the most reliable and easy-to-use materials for thermal insulation is Polinor. Its characteristic as a heater is always positive, which is due to many factors. The use of this material is advisable and advantageous because it is possible to make the process of insulation competent and efficient, which means that you can significantly save on heating costs. When warming houses, baths and generally any residential buildings, much attention is paid to achieving the following goals:
- indoor drafts
- isolation of various structures from exposure to cold air,
- protecting buildings from the negative effects of environmental factors.
All of these requirements are met by Polynor, a modern insulation that is easy and convenient to work with. Unlike classical polyurethane foam, it is resistant to moisture, does not deform during operation, and allows you to isolate structural elements. Before starting work, you should prepare a surface under them, and then arm yourself with an ordinary household spray gun. When warming a bathhouse or a country house, it is necessary that the polyurethane foam insulation is of a certain temperature. This will ensure fast and high-quality surface polymerization. Also, when using an aerosol, you should thoroughly shake the spray can, so that the spraying is carried out uniformly and efficiently.
An important role is played by compliance with the stages of applying insulation. So, first you need to apply the first layer to the surface - its thickness should not be more than 0.5 cm. It is not worth increasing the insulation layer, since it will expand as it hardens. Once the first coat is harder, a second coat can be applied. Polynor is a unique material, since it can conveniently process the most inaccessible places, for example, the corners of apartments, houses. The final layer of insulation is applied to obtain a final thickness of about 5-6 cm. Many will say that POLINOR is the same mounting foam, but in fact the chemical composition of these materials is significantly different. Accordingly, the technical and operational properties of the material will be different. Thanks to plasticity, reliable adhesion of the material to the surface is ensured.
Where to buy Polynor? In any stores that offer building and decoration materials. Reviews about this Norwegian insulation are mostly good, because it is convenient to use and allows you to handle hard-to-reach spots. Of the minuses, users note a persistent odor that lasts long enough, moreover, if a large surface area is processed, too much material will be required, which is not very profitable.
