WHY EIFS?
EIFS has proved to have a superior energy efficiency by reducing heat transmission by approx 50% Improved energy efficiency helps to reduce harmful emissions typically associated with energy production such as CO2 emissions and other by-products Design Flexibility and Decorative Finishing Superior EIFS energy efficiency reduces required air conditioning equipment capacity and limits the physical effects of temperature fluctuations hence reducing structural stress EIFS can be applied to new and existing structures. EIFS is the ONLY solution for insulating existing buildings

CRITICAL FACTORS THERMAL BRIDGES

source ETAG 004 Edition 2004 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARDS FOR EIFS Mohammed Sanaobar, L-B-E-T/TC Dubai, 25-06-2008, Slide 22

CRITICAL FACTORS HUMIDITY


Water vapour diffusion has to be considered in order to prevent the built up of condensate which can cause damages. In hot an humid climates with AC a permanent water vapour pressure difference between outside and inside air exists. High humidity penetrating in the concrete in combination with high temperatures can accelerate carbonation and corrosion of the reinforcement.

COST MODEL ENERGY SAVING CALCULATION


Consider a house of 200 m without EIFS

Media Brick wall Normal Plaster

Thickness (m) U value (W/mk) 0.24 0.015 2.29 0.50

Thermal Resistance = 0.24/ 2.29 = 0.104 = 0.015/0.50 = 0.03

The Total Thermal Resistance = 0.104+0.03 = 0.17 m.K/W Total U value = 1/ 0.17= 5.8823 W/mk Heat loss = U * Area * dT( standard temp difference) = 5.8823* 200 * 17 = 20000

Media Brick wall Normal Plaster EIFS

Thickness (m) U value (W/mk) 0.24 0.015 0.15 2.29 0.50 0.33

Thermal Resistance = 0.24/ 2.29 = 0.104 = 0.015/0.50 =0.03 = 0.15/ 0.33 = 0.45

The Total Thermal Resistance = 0.104+0.03 + 0.45 = 0.548 m.K/W Total U value = 1/ 0.548 = 1.71 W/mk Heat loss = U * Area * dT( standard temp difference)= 1.71* 200 * 17 = 5821
