The thermal insulation of homes is becoming increasingly important. There is a constant effort to maintain the home at an adequate temperature, increasing comfort.
One of the most modern and effective solutions today is ETICS thermal insulation for facades. It is an optimal response to the insulation of the main source of thermal energy leakage in any home: the facade.
We are going to explain a little more about what ETICS facade insulation is.

Advantages of ETICS facade insulation
As we have already mentioned, ETICS facade insulation is the most modern and most effective solution when it comes to reducing thermal energy leakage in any home.
It directly affects, with optimal insulation, the main source of this energy leakage: the facade of our home, whether it is a single-family home or a community dwelling.
We can establish the following advantages for our house thanks to the installation of ETICS thermal insulation:
- Energy saving. By insulating our home from the outside ambient temperature, both cold and hot, we achieve great energy savings for our house.
- Comfort. Obviously, maintaining an adequate temperature regardless of the outside temperature will provide greater comfort in the home. After all, it is what we all seek, to live comfortably in our home.
- Economic savings. Avoiding temperature leaks will provide greater economic savings in energy expenditure. Whether it is heating due to outside cold or air conditioning due to heat, we will spend much less on energy by optimizing our heating or cooling systems.
- Savings in future reforms and repairs. Adequately insulating our house from the cold or external humidity will mean less wear and tear on the materials and therefore a longer useful life for our home. This will delay the need to undertake repair or rehabilitation work.
- Does not reduce the useful space of the dwelling. The ETICS system is installed on the outside of the facade, so the useful meters of our home are not reduced in the slightest.
- Elimination of thermal bridges. Thermal bridges are those elements of the facade through which there is temperature and energy leakage. The ETICS system covers them completely, optimally eliminating this leakage.
- Cold walls disappear. Cold walls are those sections of wall that, due to their exposure to the elements and adverse weather, are a source of cold and permanent energy expenditure. The ETICS system eliminates them completely.
What is the ETICS system and how does it work?
The ETICS system consists of a combination of layers of different materials on the facade. Each of them fulfills a function and the correct installation of each of them means perfect insulation of the facade.
It has up to 8 layers of material: exterior facing, thermal insulation, acrylic paste, fiberglass mesh, acrylic paste, paint, adhesion bridge and mortar layer.
The correct installation of these 8 layers by personnel specialized in this type of materials guarantees not only the correct insulation of the facade, but also a more uniform finish, which improves the aesthetics of the building.
