Handy Guides

The Celotex Handy Guide is the essential guide to PIR thermal insulation for the professional. It includes such invaluable features as easy-to-use ready reckoners, extensive U-value calculations that show at a glance what can be achieved with each board thickness in a particular application, detailed illustrations and clear installation guidelines.

Other technical information relating to specific constructions includes, for example, a more extensive section on calculating P/A ratios for floor insulation; reflecting the ever-increasing use of PIR in flooring applications due to its better thermal performance than other insulation types.

Complementing the Handy Guide is a completely new Flat Roof Handy Guide, which draws on all the favourite features of the Handy Guide - including calculations, technical information, illustrations and installation guidelines - to produce an essential guide to flat roofing applications.

Both guides include clear and concise explanations of the requirements of UK Building Regulations, including Approved Document L for new and existing dwellings in England and Wales and Section 6 of the Scottish Building Regulations.

The guides are available to download free of charge here, so download your copy now.
