At Climasure, we don’t just sell building membranes. This is an important part of our business, but the why is more important than the what. There’s a reason Climasure was started in 2019. There is a reason we sell these membranes.

Whether you are a builder, architect or home owner, we have the knowledge to help you reduce risks that have been ingrained into the Australian building industry. The current standards are doing their best, but there is still a long way to go before the minimum NCC provisions create healthy, durable and energy efficient buildings.

All of the above is extremely valuable information, but without correct execution, it’s all a bit of a waste of time.
What is The Performance Gap (TPG)?
The difference between what is designed and what is built.
Why is TPG a problem?
Thermal performance issues are significantly compromised by decisions that the trades make when they are under informed about the intent of the design
How can we help?
- Site visits
- Information sessions
- Q&A
- Guidance on correct installation of the Pro Clima membranes so you don’t inadvertently void your warranty.
Thermal bridging calculations
What is a thermal bridge?
An area of heat or cool transfer in a building through materials that have a higher thermal conductivity than those around them
Why is this a problem?
It is a significant cause of heat loss and gain within a typical dwelling leading to lower thermal comfort and higher heating and cooling costs.
How can we help?
We will run your detail through Flixo to determine the severity of the thermal bridge and from there, can help you to solve it.
