Design and Construction of Industrial Warehouses: Energy Efficiency with EPS
Building industrial buildings with a focus on sustainability is not only socially responsible.
Calculating the energy savings that a home will have depends on multiple factors. At FANOSA® we have designed a calculator that will give you an approximate number of the energy savings that you can have if you do your project with the thermal insulation provided by our products.
YOUR PERSONAL ADVISOR
Thanks
Your information has been sent; an advisor will contact you shortly.
Contact us
Fill out our contact form, and a representative will get in touch with you.
1. Location
Choose the city where the work will be built, if you can't find your city, select the one with the most similar temperature and altitude characteristics.
2. Orientation
As you stand at the front door, with the house on your back, where are you looking?
3. Features
Tell us the general characteristics of your home, this will help us calculate the current thermal conditions of the construction and give you a recommendation on the optimal insulation for it.
4. Measurements
To facilitate the method of analysis, it is necessary to assume the geometry of the house as rectangular. Measure the width and depth of your home without taking into account offsets and overhangs. Measure the width and depth of your house without taking into account offsets and projections.
5. Doors and windows
Select the number of doors and windows that are on each of the exterior walls of your home. We have calculated a standard size for doors and windows. We have calculated a standard measurement for doors and windows.
For a more accurate calculation, we recommend that you contact one of our advisors who will be able to calculate the savings and even make recommendations on which products to use.
The following calculation was made using average climate data from QUERETARO, based on an area of 30 m2 (length x width) with standard doors and windows. It considers 2" EPS insulation in the roof and 2" EPS insulation in the walls, assuming that 50% of the total electricity consumption is used for air conditioning (A/C). The results are approximate and for illustrative purposes only. FANOSA® is not responsible for any use given to this information.

24.035%
With thermal insulation in walls and roof
Enter to:
-68.09%

Average electrical consumption without thermal insulation.
Average electrical consumption with thermal insulation on walls and ceiling.
What does this mean?
The more insulated your house is, the less heat enters and the cold leaves it, which means you spend less electricity cooling it in summer and heating it in winter. Generally, 50% of the electricity expenditure in summer is the consumption of air conditioning (A/C), the rest are the appliances and lighting that we use every day, so, to calculate the electricity savings that you can have by insulating your house, we consider lower consumption of air conditioning (A/C).
With FANOSA® you are not alone, our consultants can help you find the most suitable solution, from the type of product, system or packaging that best meets the needs of your project.®
