Detailed Product Description

There are advanges of aerated concrete:
- perfect heat storage capacity helps to avoid high temperatures in summer and heat losses in winter,
- this concrete can regulate humidity and prevent from fungus and mustiness inside the house,
- water vapour permeability is 0,25 - 0,22Ng (compare with wood - 0,15Ng, brick - 0,05 - 0,1Ng),
- high frost-resistance,
- due to low density wall made of aerated concrete is light as 3 times as brick wall,
- aerated concrete is easy to cut, install and transport,
- man-hours needed for installation of aerated concrete blocks are three times less than for brick walls.

AAC features include structural capacity, thermal, fire, and acoustical resistance properties

With an R-value of approximately 1.25 per inch, dependent on density, AAC significantly outperforms conventional concrete block or poured concrete. Consistency in quality and color may be difficult to obtain in AAC made with fly ash. Unfinished exterior walls should be covered with an exterior cladding or parged with mortar when exposed to physical damage, dirt, and water, because atmospheric debris can collect in the open cells. If installed in high humidity environments, interior finishes with low vapor permeability, and exterior finishes with a highpermeability are recommended.

Because of the thermal mass of AAC and its ability to store and release energy over time, AAC may be beneficial in climates where outdoor temperature fluctuates over a 24-hour period from above

to below the indoor temperature conditioned air set point.
