Insulation selection
1.2.1 Insulation of wall, ceiling and floor
Type of insulation panels
You can select among the following type of panels :
- Usual panels,
- « Complex panels »: insulation is covered with a with a cover material (plaster, mineral …..)
- « Sandwich panels »: insulation is covered on each side with a wooden panel or plaster board.
Important: The covering of the panels protects the insulation against damage and guarantees its
longevity. Avoid using mineral fibres insulation (glass wool, rock woo, etc…) as they may ac-
cumulate moisture and lose their insulation power and avoid also thin film insulation that are not ef-
fective for cold.
DO YOU KNOW THAT ?
Some insulating materials are damaged by rodents ( mouse, rats...). If necessary, cover the insulation
with a protective lining on the inside of the cellar to avoid presence of mouse or rats.
→ Polyurethane is an insulator that, due to its chemical composition, is not attacked by the rodents.
Floor insulation
The floor of the cellar must be able to support the shelves and the stored wine. Thus, it’s necessary to
choose insulation with adequate compression strength.
