Insulation blankets are usually made from glasswool with a foil backing, and placed beneath metal and tile roofs to regulate temperature. On the other hand, insulation batts are often made of glasswool or polyester and are installed on top of the plaster ceiling.\nBoth types work together synergistically - roof insulation blankets provide primary insulation, while batts above the ceiling offer additional thermal protection. This combination ensures comprehensive coverage and optimal insulation performance.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre Insulation Blankets Safe?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nInsulation blankets are considered safe when installed and used correctly, meeting stringent fire safety standards and industry regulations.

Their dense composition and layered construction help to block and absorb sound vibrations, thereby reducing noise levels. Suitable applications include installing insulation blankets for the roof, walls, ceilings, and floors of residential, commercial, and industrial spaces to minimise noise from HVAC systems, machinery, and external sources.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Environmental Benefits Do Insulation Blankets Offer?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nInsulation blankets contribute to environmental sustainability by using eco-friendly materials such as recycled fibreglass and foil backing. These materials reduce the carbon footprint of production and minimise waste. Some insulation blankets are also certified by green building standards like LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), ensuring adherence to strict environmental criteria and promoting energy-efficient, sustainable building practices.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Long Do Insulation Blankets Last?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nThe lifespan of insulation blankets typically ranges from 20 to 30 years, depending on factors like material quality and environmental conditions. To maximise longevity and performance, regular maintenance is essential. Blankets should be inspected for tears, gaps, or moisture ingress, and promptly repaired when necessary. Proper ventilation can help to prevent moisture buildup, which can compromise insulation effectiveness over time.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre Insulation Blankets Suitable for DIY Installation?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nYes, while insulation blankets are generally installed by professional roofers, they are also suitable for DIY installation, thanks to their flexibility and ease of handling. However, proper safety precautions are crucial, including wearing protective gear such as gloves, goggles, and a mask to prevent irritation from insulation materials. You may also need to install safety guards around the perimeter of the roof. It’s also essential to follow manufacturer instructions carefully.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Factors Should I Consider When Choosing Insulation Blankets?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nWhen choosing insulation blankets, opt for those with higher R-values and durable materials. The R-value measures the thermal resistance of insulation material, indicating its ability to resist heat flow. A higher R-value signifies greater insulating effectiveness, meaning the material better prevents heat transfer.\nTo minimise environmental impact, you should also consider eco-friendly materials such as glasswool, which is often made using recycled glass bottles.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExplore Our Range of Insulation Blankets\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhy settle for anything less than the best in comfort and energy efficiency?

Although the sound of gentle rain can be soothing, heavy rain or hail on a metal roof can be noisy and annoying. Installing this product reduce the sound power level of heavy rain by over 7%*, improving the comfort of your living environment as well as providing the thermal and condensation benefits that Bradford Anticon is renowned for. The addition of \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/gold-insulation-batts\"\u003eBradford Gold ceiling batts\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/products\/r2-0-bradford-soundscreen-acoustic-insulation-batts\"\u003eSoundScreen\u003c\/a\u003e can also further improve both the acoustic and thermal performance. \u003ch2\u003eImprove Energy Efficiency and Comfort\u003c\/h2\u003e Most common building materials such as bricks, roof tiles and metal roofing allow most of the heat they receive to pass through them. This is why insulation such as Anticon for under the metal roof sheet and Gold Batts or New Generation SoundScreen in ceilings and walls is important to achieve improved energy efficiency and a comfortable living environment. \u003ch2\u003eUp to 42% of heat is lost through the roof\u003c\/h2\u003e In winter, around \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.bradfordinsulation.co.nz\/home-comfort-hub\/how-insulation-works\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e42% of a home’s heat is lost through the roof and 24% typically lost through the walls\u003c\/a\u003e. In summer heat flows at similar rates into the home. The inclusion of this roofing product can help improve the thermal performance and comfort of your home. \u003ch2\u003eCondensation Control\u003c\/h2\u003e Installing this product can reduce the risk of condensation formation under your metal roof which can cause damage to plasterboard ceilings and mould growth. The use of high levels of insulation on only the ceiling to meet energy efficiency and comfort requirements can unfortunately lead to an increased incidence of condensation formation in roof spaces in cold climates. Although ceiling insulation is very effective at keeping the warmth within the home, it is unable to stop vapour (moisture within the air) from the home passing through the plasterboard and bulk insulation. When this vapour contacts a cold surface such as an un-insulated metal roof sheet, condensation droplets can form beneath the roof sheet in the roof space – similar to the droplets on the outside of a bottle removed from the fridge on a warm day. To help address condensation formation, ‘Anticon’ (the name is derived from the anti-condensation purpose of the product) positioned directly against the underside of the metal roof sheet helps stop the vapour in the air from reaching the cold metal roof sheet. By insulating the metal roof, the temperature of the Anticon foil facing does not get as cold which reduces the risk of condensation forming. For roofs in very cold regions or those homes where moist air enters the roof space, it is important to tape the foil overlap and remove the heavy, moisture laden air from the attic space using a suitable ventilation system. \u003ch2\u003eFire Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e This bulk insulation blanket is made from non-combustible fibres and is ideally suited to sealing ember entry points at ridges, valleys and fascias to meet the BAL (Bushfire Attack Level) requirement for metal clad roofs in bushfire areas. Anticon’s bulk insulation blanket achieves a very high fire rating in accordance with AS\/NZS1530.3 (0,0,0,1) and the reflective foil facing meets the BCA flammability index requirement of ≤ 5. \u003ch2\u003eMade in Australia from up to 65% recycled glass\u003c\/h2\u003e Made from up to 65% recycled glass, this product is made in Australia in facilities with an Ozone Depleting Potential (ODP) of zero so you can be assured that they are a sound environmental choice. \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bradford-insulation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eCSR Bradford\u003c\/a\u003e insulation is manufactured using the latest FBS-1 bio-soluble formulation which has been assessed as non-hazardous under the National Occupational Health \u0026amp; Safety Commission’s guidelines.","brand":"Bradford","offers":[{"title":"Victoria \/ R1.8","offer_id":58071389110604,"sku":"PWV-A80120015LD","price":219.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Victoria \/ R1.3","offer_id":58071389143372,"sku":"PWV-A60120015LD","price":178.2,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"New South Wales \/ R1.8","offer_id":58071389176140,"sku":"PWN-A80120015LD","price":246.89,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"New South Wales \/ R1.3","offer_id":58071389208908,"sku":"PWN-A60120015LD","price":195.88,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Queensland \/ R1.3","offer_id":58071389241676,"sku":"PWQ-A60120015LD","price":224.8,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Queensland \/ R1.8","offer_id":58071389274444,"sku":"PWQ-A80120015LD","price":246.04,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Australian Capital Territory \/ R1.3","offer_id":58071389307212,"sku":"PWA-A60120015LD","price":215.46,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Australian Capital Territory \/ R1.8","offer_id":58071389339980,"sku":"PWA-A80120015LD","price":271.58,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1073\/8070\/3564\/files\/94fc502a-bradford-anticon-roof-insulation-blanket-with-foil-sarking.jpg?v=1783940136"},{"product_id":"fletcher-permastop-building-blanket-insulation","title":"Fletcher Permastop Building Blanket Insulation","description":"\u003ch2\u003eFletcher Permastop Blanket Insulation for Roofs\u003c\/h2\u003e To increase the comfort and energy efficiency of the buildings we work and live in, the right choice for effective insulation performance is \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/insulation.com.au\/product\/permastop-building-blanket\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ePermastop Blanket\u003c\/a\u003e.

While many people enjoy the sound of rain on the roof it can become deafening in extreme conditions, especially hail. Permastop is not only an effective thermal insulation but acts as a baffle to reduce sound transmission both from outside and inside sources. The acoustic performance of 75mm Permastop building blanket can reduce rain noise by as much as 18dB(A) compared to a metal roof with no insulation. This product also stops noise from the rapid expansion of metal deck roofs under the sun.
