Bartley Corp provides contractors with exceptional energy efficiency in their projects thanks to our familiarity with the Thermomass insulated wall system. This cast-in-place solution results in insulation that is sandwiched between two layers of concrete.
With the system’s patented fiber composite connectors and rigid insulating layers, the Thermomass system is effective at preventing thermal bridges that lead to energy issues in other cast-in-place systems.
How Thermomass Wall Systems Work
Thermomass insulated walls are formed in place around a core of Styrofoam insulation. Everything is held together with Thermomass’ patented high-strength fiber composite connectors.
- Insulation foam is sandwiched between two layers of concrete
- Energy efficient insulation lowers carbon footprint
- Cost effective with rapid return on investment
- Helps with up to 21 LEED Credits
Energy Efficiency and Long-Term Performance
The Thermomass system provides numerous benefits with regard to the energy efficiency of the finished building. The high relative mass of the concrete is capable of storing a large amount of thermal energy and slow down thermal transfer from outside the structure. The insulation core provides an uninterrupted envelope around the entire building, enhancing the property’s R-value. This means occupants can remain comfortable for longer without running the building’s HVAC system, resulting in energy savings and a reduced environmental footprint.
Supporting Sustainable and LEED-Oriented Builds
Building with Thermomass energy-efficient concrete walls means builders can contribute toward their LEED certification goals through green concrete construction. Projects that use these LEED concrete walls may be eligible for up to 21 credits, which can help builders satisfy their green building objectives.
Residential Applications for Thermomass Walls
Builders and homeowners typically use Thermomass residential insulated wall systems in cases where achieving better thermal properties and energy efficiency are paramount. Some examples of use cases for these walls include:
- Full basement foundation walls
- Walkout basements
- Energy-efficient custom homes
- Green or high-performance residential builds
