During the use of EPS molded polystyrene insulation board, proper maintenance is crucial, not only to ensure long-lasting insulation effect, but also to extend its service life. Here are some suggestions for maintenance of EPS molded polystyrene insulation board:
First, regular cleaning is key. It is recommended to use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris on the surface of the insulation board. Avoid using detergents containing corrosive substances to prevent damage to the surface of the insulation board. During the cleaning process, pay special attention not to scratch or damage the surface structure of the insulation board.
Secondly, waterproofing and moisture-proofing cannot be ignored. EPS molded polystyrene insulation board itself has a certain degree of water absorption. If it is left in a humid environment for a long time, it may cause the material to deform, mold or even rot. Therefore, ensure a good seal between the insulation board and the wall to prevent rainwater from penetrating. For insulation boards that have become damp, they should be dried in time and checked for deformation or damage. If necessary, they should be replaced in time.
In addition, UV protection is equally important. Prolonged sunlight exposure may cause the surface color of the insulation board to fade, age, or even crack. Therefore, during use, you can consider applying anti-UV coating on the surface of the insulation board or installing shading facilities to reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays to the insulation board.
Finally, regular inspections are essential. The inspection includes whether the insulation board is loose, falling off, deformed, etc., whether the connections are firm, and whether there are cracks or damage. Problems discovered during the inspection should be dealt with in a timely manner, such as re-fixing loose insulation boards, replacing damaged parts, etc.
To sum up, the maintenance of EPS molded polystyrene insulation board involves cleaning, waterproofing and moisture-proofing, UV protection and regular inspection. Only by doing these maintenance tasks can we ensure the stable performance of the insulation board, extend its service life, and provide good insulation effects for the building.
