SOLIDROOFTECHNOLOGY ABOUT ICOTHERM: • Timber, a material with thermal conductivity of only 0.16 W/m2k, simplifies the process of insulation and ventilation – against an aluminium frame), as it does not require cloaking. • Premium C24 building grade timber and 155mm EPS boards guarantees the structural integrity and U-Value performance (0.18W/m2k, which can be brought down to 0.12W/m2k with the use of insulated plasterboard, ideal for the Scottish market). • Designed either with a fully ventilated “cold” roof construction, with airflow circulating over the eaves and through the entire roof, or with a “warm” roof construction, ensuring condensation will never be an issue. • Pre-fabricated pods and pre-cut insulation provides a solution that goes up quickly (an average sized roof should go up in 2 hours, with the waterproof membrane on) • 155mm fully recyclable, rigid EPS insulation AND DID YOU KNOW? • CRA (Condensations Risk Analysis) checked and approved. • Beams and insulation pre-cut to size • Cut tile service available for shingle tiles • Tiles delivered with the roof • Fully labelled components for a worry- free installation • Building Control Compliant • We can design gable roofs without tie bars BUILDING CONTROL COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATE – WHY DOES IT MATTER? Whether we like it or not Building Control makes specific demands. Icotherm invested a lot of time and money into making sure that our roof options are structurally sound and met building control requirements. So, not only does Icotherm provide the installer with a ready to go, easy to install Icotherm Roof Systems is a trading name of Iconservatories Limited. Icotherm Roof Systems designs and manufactures a range of timber framed warm roof solutions for the trade.

It saves time (fast install, no prep work), money (no material wastage), and of course is building control compliant. And to further protect our product integrity, we now also work with Building Control Inspectors Ball & Berry, who carry out strict checks to ensure the roofs certified are indeed ours.
