Discover the benefits of EnviroCell Insulation
Wouldn’t you love to return home after it has been locked up on a hot summer day to find it cool and liveable, or wake on a cold winter morning to be warm and comfortable? This is the lifestyle you can enjoy by having EnviroCell install insulation ventilation products into your home.
A well insulated home is more Energy Efficient and can save up to 45% on your power consumption by reducing the amount of cooling or heating required to keep your home at an optimal temperature. The saving is passed on to you with reduction on electrical bills. This will ensure you reduce your carbon count, and overall burden on the environment, which makes EnviroCell insulation an environmentally friendly insulation choice.
Discover the benefits of EnviroCell Ventilation
Proper roof venting is critical to good construction practices and maintenance. The purpose of roof venting is to reduce temperature build-up inside the roof cavity during the summer months and to reduce fungal wood rot and other problems associated with condensation in the roof cavity during the cooler months of the year.
EnviroCell offers a range of roof ventilation products designed to create airflow and extract hot air build up inside roof cavities. Envirocell can supply and install ventilation products combined with our insulation to give you a complete insulation and ventilation solution. An insulated and ventilated home will save you money.
In a normal residential building, payback of the total cost of insulation ventilation(depending on use of the dwelling and the type of heating and cooling systems used) is estimated at around 3.8 years. These products will continue to save money and provide comfort for the householder for the life of the building.
Conversely, if a building remains uninsulated without ventilation, over its projected life of 60 years the householder will have unnecessarily paid for the cost of the insulation 12 times over through the cost of wasted energy.

Polyester batt insulation
Poly Insulation is a man-made fibre comprising chains of synthetic carbon polymers. This material is the same as that used in drink and food containers, medical packaging and bedding. Poly Insulation is hydrophobic, meaning that it repels water. This ensures that the insulation will not be affected by exposure to moisture and will not rot.
This form of insulation is
- Clean, dust free and will not be eaten by vermin or insects
Energy efficient - Can save up to 45% on cooling and heating energy bills - Fire resistant - Naturally fire resistant polymer fibre shrinks away from flame Environmentally Friendly – Polyester batt Insulation is made from recycled plastics
- Excellent acoustically - Effectively cuts down internal and external noise
- Stable - Will not settle or sag over time
- Insect and vermin resistant – Polyester batt offers no nutritional value to insects and vermin
- Mould and mildew resistant – Polyester batt is moisture resistant and will not rot Guaranteed - For the life of the structure
- Comfort - Increases internal comfort and the value of the building
- Australian Made - Locally manufactured, owned and operated.
Foilboard Insulation
Foilboard Insulated Systems for framed walls, roofs and ceilings Foilboard is more than just insulation - when used externally on framed walls it provides a weatherproof shield, which enables internal trades to proceed without waiting for brickwork or cladding completion. Foilboard offers a slimline solution to the cathedral problems.
Foilboard's features and benefits:
- High accredited R-Values are achieved
- An air gap is formed which inhibits the transfer of moisture
- Foilboard with its pure aluminium facings provides a highly efficient reflective airspace
- Cheaper hardware components combined with ready availability and plasterers experience in their use means lower sub-contractors tenders on your plaster package
- The external wall treatment is enhanced by Foilboard's resistance to moisture and humidity. Taping of sheet joins stops moisture and air infiltration. A perfect solution for insulating factory roofs
EnviroCell Ventilation
Proper roof venting is critical to good construction practices and maintenance. The purpose of roof venting is to reduce temperature build-up inside the roof cavity during the summer months and to reduce fungal wood rot and other problems associated with condensation in the roof cavity during the cooler months of the year.
Wind turbine roof ventilators
Ampelair superflow whirlybirds
A well ventilated home is protected from problems associated with moisture condensation and the effects of temperatures that can soar up to 60º. In hot, humid localities, mould, mildew, dry rot and damp insulation (which is less efficient) are frequently found where there is poor ventilation.
EnviroCell ventilators exhaust the very hot air that becomes trapped in the space between the ceiling and the roof. Removing this super heated air prevents heat radiation into the home and makes living conditions more comfortable. Normal insulation is not enough to prevent the heat radiation. With effective roof space ventilation air conditioners and fans can cope more easily and power costs are reduced.
Available in colours to suit the home EnviroCell turbo vents are available in a range of durable powder coated colours to suit both tile and Steel roofs.
Winter ventilation is important too moisture laden air from inside the home and damp air entering the roof space, can condense and cause dampness. Good ventilation prevents damage to roof timbers and formation of mildew etc. Ceiling insulation is less efficient when damp and adds to heating costs. EnviroCell vents also improve bathroom and kitchen ventilation.
Tile ventilators
TileVent
The breakthrough invention that delivers the easy and cost effective answer to roof ventilation, providing effective ventilation to the roof cavity all year round.
Let your house breathe
Beats the summer heat solves winter condensation problems by providing vented natural air to the roof cavity, helping your house stay cool in summer and preventing condensation build-up in winter.
How does it work?
The Universal tile vent is placed in the fourth lower course of a tile roof to allow free air-flow to enter the roof cavity; another is placed on the third or fourth course from the top of the opposing side to allow hot air or moisture to evacuate the roof cavity.
Why do I need the tile ventilation system?
If your house suffers from heat build-up, condensation problems, stuffiness, or you rely on air conditioning systems excessively, these tiles are a cost effective way to improve the 'breath ability' of your home.
How many do I need?
4-6 Universal tile ventilators are required for a small size house; 6-8 for a medium house and 8 or more tiles for large homes. How do they look when installed?
Almost invisible! The Universal tile vent incorporates the external dimensions of the modern concrete tile [and most older concrete and terracotta] with configuration of a flat shingle tile with interlocking side laps. There is no cowling or hood protruding from the plane of the roof line, the vent sits flush to the exposed dimensions of the host tile. The Universal Tile Ventilator can also be painted to suit your roof colour.Constructed from strong BlueScope steel. No moving parts.
Under eaves ventilation
Eaves Vents
According to most building codes, 1 square metre of ventilation is required for every 100 square metres of roof space. EnviroCell can install Eaves Ventilators into your home to maximise your cool home solution.
A good venting system, installing Eaves ventilation, allows for a continuous flow of air, which enters the roof cavity under the eaves of the roof and exits the roof through a wind turbine roof ventilator. As a general rule, there is no need to provide for any sort of mechanical assistance, fans, or other devices to the roof venting system.
A good venting system works adequately by means of a natural convection current where warm air rises and pulls the cooler, drier air behind it. A good roof venting system must also be designed in such a way as to provide for proper air flow at all portions of the roof.
Roof gable ventilation
Louvered gable vents
Proper ventilation represents a small investment and provides many worthwhile benefits including increased comfort, reduced energy costs and fewer damage problems. Placed at the ends of the roof. They can function as either intake or exhaust vents depending on the direction of the wind. They will not work as exhaust vents without eaves vents.
Gable vents cool the roof by encouraging air temperatures (featuring a larger venting area than industry standards require), whilst 'dressing up' gable ends better than other alternatives.
Louvered gable vent features and benefits:
- Unique copolymer formulation for the greatest weather ability and the highest UV resistance in the industry
- More venting area than industry standards
- Fully screened for complete insect protection
- Double baffle system for increased weather resistance
- Available in Zinc or Powder coated Colourbond
- One-piece quality construction for incredible structural integrity
