A2PBA2PBEER– Affordable and Adaptable Public Buildings through Energy Efficient Retrofitting
Overview
The objective of this solution is to offer an internal insulated facade system that
can be applied in public buildings where external solutions are not viable.

The need for the Technology.
External insulation systems are not always viable.

Main design features of the Technology.
Protection of the VIP from perforation
The insulating qualities of VIPs are due to the vacuum created around the
core silica material, if this vacuum is perforated the panel loses its thermal
properties.
Hygrothermal performance
Using continuous impermeable VIPs on the internal surface of an existing
facade can cause a series of moisture related problems if vapour control
strategies are not employed. The building envelope is no longer able to
“breathe” meaning humidity transportation mechanisms such as diffusion
(interior to exterior), capillary conduction and point condensation need to
be resolved to avoid material damage.
HOW?
Diffusion ‐ Humidity buffers on the
warm interior faces: vapour barriers
Internal mechanical ventilation
Point condensation – Guarantee
continuous insulation: avoid cold
bridging

A2PBA2PBEER– Affordable and Adaptable Public Buildings through Energy Efficient Retrofitting
Additionally, due to its extremely low thermal
conductivity, the effect of thermal bridges in a continuous
VIP solution is incremented.
HOW?
Sealing of joints, guarantee continuous VIP and
reducing cold bridging in floors and internal walls by
continuing insulation in these planes

Description of the main benefits – level of
innovation, energy savings etc.
A set of selection criteria were also established using key variables from the
specifications previously established.
These criteria along with the compliance of the previous requirements have
become the main benefits of the system offering a solution that would be
sufficiently attractive in the interior energy retrofit product market. The
main benefits being:

How and where the Technology can be used for
retrofitting.
The prototype installed in the Tecnalia Kubic test centre clarified the
installation procedures , confirmed the benefits and highlighted possible
problems.

INSTALLATION DETAILS AND PROCEDURES

CONSIDERATIONS
2. Any superfluous element should be detached from the wall in order that the
surface is as planar as possible.
5. VIP modules layout will be adjusted when previous steps are completed.
6. Maximum floor to ceiling height will determinate the type of aluminum stud needed
for the internal lining.
7. Heavy elements to be hung from the wall should be considered in the lining
design

VIPs cannot be cut on–site under any circumstance since this would dramatically reduce its thermal
resistant properties. A selection of modularized sizes will be developed to maximize coverage
however PIR will be used where VIP modules are not feasible, such as around windows

INSTALLATION TIPS
Vapour barrier.
• Take care when the existing wall has already a vapour barrier to avoid
trapping moisture between the two barriers
• Seal well all edges of the barrier to ensure airtightness.

A2PBA2PBEER– Affordable and Adaptable Public Buildings through Energy Efficient Retrofitting
INSTALLATION TIPS
Lining independence.
• The structural lining should be an independent system that does not touch
the existing wall or lean on the VIP layer.

Kubik feedback:
• No vacuum loss was observed in the reception VIPs.
Apparently, no vacuum loss occurred during the installation.
• Small displacement of the asphalt layer were observed in
some of the VIP panels, hampering the continuity of two VIP
panels in the wall.
• The targeted thermal transmittance of the wall according to
the requirements set in D3.2 U, was 0.15 W/m2K was
achieved according to measurements carried out.
• Regarding hygrothermal performance, no relative humidity
higher than 80% was observed during this period (July-
October 2015).
• Installation proved not to be too complicated, as long as the
installation procedures are followed carefully.
