Timber Warmframe

The Dynamic Warmframe product range is designed for use in conventional timber construction with partial-fill cavity wall insulation. For a typical timber house archetype Dynamic Warmframe*:

Improves the U-value of the fabric to 0.15 in thin walls (89mm stud, 75mm warmframe)

Delivers a saving of 1.41 SAP DER points

Enables the use of a simpler and less expensive ventilation system

Improves indoor thermal comfort and air quality

The Warmframe Dynamic Insulation system enables builders and designers to attain Code 3 and Code 4 standards of fabric performance using thin stud construction.  

The Dynamic Warmframe product (JDP) is an EPS panel that is affixed to the OSB. A 100mm panel can provide the same thermal performance as 175mm of PIR.  

This added thermal performance can offset other aspects of the construction to permit, for instance, dwellings to be constructed using 89mm stud depths insulated with conventional mineral wool (λ=0.035 W/m.K). Consequently, superior performance dwellings can be constructed with reduced build costs, for example a £1,100 reduction in build costs for a typical 120m² detached dwelling.

The Dynamic Warmframe (JDP) panel is available in thicknesses of 75mm, 100mm and 125mm.  

Following rigorous testing with the National Physics Laboratory (NPL), the performance of Dynamic Insulation technology is recognised through SAP Appendix Q
