A ventilated system can help protect the exterior wall and the insulation. The heating of the air in the ventilated chamber compared to the environment air causes a continuous movement of air, ventilating in the chamber and keeping the insulation dry. This keeps the energy efficiency of the building high and the health of its occupants paramount while at the same time transforming the appearance of the building.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVentilated cladding would\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ekeep the external heated,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ereduce external sound,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eprotect against water ingress,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eprotect the structure of the building,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003estop thermal bridging,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eprotect the health of the occupants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCedral Wall Cladding\u003c\/b\u003e are high quality fibre-cement weatherboards (siding) that has the visual appeal of natural timber.

Both systems use the ventilated rainscreen principle - air is allowed to flow in at the base of the system, behind the cladding and then out, over the top cladding. This air flow action enables the system to remove moisture and to keep the walls dry, thus creating a more comfortable living environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRainscreen Principle\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.unitybuildingsupplies.co.uk\/image\/catalog\/categories\/rainscreen_priciple.jpg\" alt=\"Can be installed horizontally or vertically\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTypes of Cedral Cladding\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCedral Lap\u003c\/b\u003e -- the overlap method \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCedral Click \u003c\/b\u003e-- the flush tongue and groove method\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAdvantages of using Cedral Cladding \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick and easy to install,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCost effective,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHas attractive aesthetic qualities,\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHas timber like surface finish,\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtects from effects of sun, rain and snow,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHas good acoustic properties,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy to maintain and repair,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA sustainable material.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCedral Lap\u003c\/b\u003e -- the overlap method\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1001\/1358\/0416\/collections\/Cladding.jpg?v=1781953486","url":"https:\/\/buyunity.co.uk\/collections\/cladding.oembed","provider":"buyunity.co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
