Planning of insulation is done by specialist planner construction physics but a general recommendation of effective thermal insulating measures include:
- Adequate insulation of the building envelope
- Achieve a small U-value (represents the thermal conductivity of a wall) the smaller the U-value, the better the insulation of a wall.
- Avoidance of thermal bridges (i.e. thermal leak in the building shell) can cause a different façade appearance or moisture formation.
- Correct airing and heating
- Orientation of the building
