Hong Kong Insulation Work Price Guide - cold roominsulated panels, freezer room and refrigerated warehouse works
Summary of focus
  • Insulation work is the basis for cold room works, with thermal insulation performing good work and directly affecting electricity costs, temperature stability and life of equipment.
  • Cold roomthermal insulation generally use polymer (PU) or potassium permanganate (PIR) hotinsulated panels, which recommend the use of mineral cotton as treasurythermal insulation.
  • Insulation work prices are mainly cooked: materials, thickness, surface material, area, target temperature, cold room door, floor protection against unfrozen conditions of work.
  • The complete cold room price is buried in the refrigeration unit, electricity, temperature monitoring and maintenance, so it must be clear about the price bag.
  • Accurate quotations are up to the gate. In comparing bids, the net bath price is better than the specifications per item.

Preamble: It is important to point out the work of ininsulation?

Hong Kong is also hot and wet in summer, with high temperatures both inside and outside cold room. The cold room, refrigerated warehouse,walk-in cold room is not operational for a year 365 days, as long as the thermal insulation is good, the outer flash heat and wet gas will continue to infiltrated and the refrigeration unit is more struggling. The result was an increase in electricity costs, a stable temperature dam and even early damage to equipment.

Multiple visitors ' queriescold room priceWhenever, the first problem was a few square metres of money? It is a uniform criterion for the price of its work in realins, as materials, thickness, temperature and site conditions make it far cheaper. The newspaper article, Kam Hing Engineering helped you to break down the Einsulation Work Price Feasing Points, sympathetic programme points and to keep abreast when compared with the buried bids, e.g. to a genuinely appropriate programme of work in cold room.

insulation work with cold room basic knowledge

insulation work is fertile?

Insulation work refers to reduced heat transfer works with thermal insulation materials. ⁇ refrigeration engineering injection, the role of ininsulation work is to prevent the infiltration into cold room of external flash heat with water vapours, which can maintain low temperatures with less energy. Insulation work is well applied, including cold room pools, refrigerant runwaythermal insulation, cooling thermal insulation etc. The ⁇ cold room works in the face, with the most core chromosomal panels, cold room gate and floorthermal insulation.

Insulation work is correlated with refrigeration engineering?

One cold room can be divided into two parts simply:

  • thermal insulation system: Einsulated panels, cold room gate, floorthermal insulation, sealed envelope to cover cooling chromosote
  • Refrigeration system: compressors, refrigerators, hairs, flashers, temperature controllers, responsible for cooling.

Thermal insulation performed poorly, and the refrigeration unit was to operate for long periods of time, with an increase in the cost of electricity homogeneous items. As a result, insulation workrefrigeration engineeringIt is important to plan together. Information on the operation of refrigeration system points can be found on the service pagecold room refrigeration。

The ⁇ cold room aluminium system states that the remaining names are distinguished mainly by temperature, use and size. The lower the temperature, the higher the demand for insulation work and the corresponding increase in the cost of work.

cold roomthermal insulation materials comparison

The most important of the judgement thermal insulation material is the coating heat coefficient (growth value, unit W/m K). The lower the value, the better the thermal insulation. In addition, cold roomthermal insulation ultraviolet defence tide. If the water vapour insulation layer is infiltrated into thermal insulation, the effect of thermal insulation will be drastically reduced, with zero environmental refrigeration and damage to the treasury.

Note: The above coefficient is general reference and the actual value is based on technical information from producers.

Most of the decomposition cold room is used by PU ⁇ heartinsulated panels?

PU ⁇ heartinsulated panels will have the following advantages between two metal floors of polyurethane foams:

  • Low guidance heat coefficients and less thickness required for the samethermal insulation effects, allowing more space within the base
  • Precautionary structures, suitable for wet weather in Hong Kong
  • Prefabricated painting, shorter construction time and later convenience of expansion or demolition
  • The surface may thicken steel plates or unchest steel plates, in conjunction with derivative requirements

insulated panels thickness points?

Insulated panels ' thickness directly affects thermal intake rate. A simple heat-heating formula can be used to estimate thermal infiltration of panels per square metre:

Heat infiltration q(W/m2)=( ⁇ thickness) (exterior temperature − courier temperature)

PU insulated panels ( ⁇ 0.022 W/m.K), outdoor temperature assumptions 35°C, purely model thickness effects, unspecified crunch, cold room door, floor and open gates, taken into thermal volume:

insulated panels thicknesschilled room (Case +2°C, temperature 33°C)freezer room (kuin -20°C, temperature 55°C)
75mmApproximately 9.7 W/m2approximately 16.1 W/m2
100mmApproximately 7.3 W/m2approximately 12.1 W/m2
150mmApproximately 4.8 W/m2Approximately 8.1 W/m2
200mmApproximately 3.6 W/m26.1 W/m2

Two points can be reached from the above table:

  1. Lower temperature, higher thicknessAs well as 100 mm, the poor lezer room hot infiltration ranged from chilled room ⁇ 1.7 times.
  2. Reduction in thickness benefits: 75mm plus 100 mm, freezer room approximately 4 W per square metre. However, by 150 mm and up to 200 mm, only about 2 W is less. As a result, the better the thickness of the clouds, the cost of buried is space.

Eagle Rock (some - 30°C or below)Approximately 150mm to 200 mm

Physical thicknessCold room design and designPhases are determined by environmental temperature, cold room location (e.g. near windows, astronomy, heat source of the roof), budget and energy efficiency objectives.

9 major factors affecting the cost of work ininsulation

1. thermal insulation materials

PU, PIR, EPS and other materials are co-existed. PIR fire resistance is generally better, but at higher cost. EPS is even more equitable, but it requires more arduous results.

2. Insulated panels thickness

The higher the thickness, the higher the cost of materials. The freezer room and the emergency unfrozen treasury need to be thicken, with a price of money naturally higher than chilled room.

3. Surface material

Frequent steel surfaces are usually more dried than sterile steel plates, but are more durable and easy to clean.

4. Reservoir homogeneous

Insulated panels are measured by wall, astronomical and total floor area. Orthopaedic rules, spinnings or migrating to the bottom cold room of the floor will increase manual congeners if they are to be matched by additional entry.

5. Target temperature

The lower the temperature, the more thick the Einsulated panels, the cold room door is tied to frozen heat and the floor is frustrated, with a significant increase in the overall cost of work for ininsulation.

6. Cold room type

There is a large gap between open gates, pushers and fast door price. Frequency of accessrefrigerated warehouse engineeringMost need fast valves or winds, with higher pre-investment but can reduce cool erosion.

7. floorthermal insulation and protection

The freezer room is chronically sporadic, and the bottom-floor water plumbing is likely to flourish, causing the floor mounting, i.e. frustrating inflation. As a result, the freezer room and refrigerated warehouses are generally to be floorthermal insulation and, as appropriate, frozen measures at higher costs than chilled room.

8. Increments

A cold room is divided into more temperate areas, with the spacing of walls and the insulated panels and cold room door usage increasing.

9. On-site construction conditions

The building floor, the use of a lift machine, the need to move, the time limit for the construction of the dam, the size of the tunnel and the need to dismantle the old cold room all affect the cost of manual and transportation.

Cold room price is made up of copper?

The fact that the price of cold room is equal to the cost of the insulated panels is only part of its work. A complete cold room offer usually includes the following items:

ItemContent
insulation workWallboards, ceilings, floorthermal insulation, sealed seals, receipts
cold room gateGates, pushers or fast gates, door boxes to prevent froze heating, rubber articles, security devices
Refrigeration systemcompressor/refrigeration unit, evaporation, flash, refrigerant tube and pipethermal insulation
Electricity and controlElectrical receptacles, appliances, temperature control, cyanide control, inner lighting
Water drainageFlood discharge plumbing, freezer room to be processed
Temperature monitoringTemperature records, hyper temperature alerts (freezer room plates with relevant requirements)
Construction and transportationTransport, cooking, dismantling and clean-up
Testing and handoverPressure tests, vacuum, refrigerant, temperature test
Maintenance and post-saleMaintenance period, regular maintenance arrangements

Therefore, comparisoncold room priceThe package must be clear on a case-by-case basis. There is a good price for quotations, which may be due to leakage of electricity, floor or temperature monitoring.

The freezer room plate mentions you: Hong Kong, Hong Kong, for commercial storage in a freezer room, is generally required to claim the freezer room licence from the Food and Environment Agency. The standard licensing conditions include the installation of non-freezer room with fixed devices capable of accurate automated recording of temperatures. For further information seeLicensing Considerations for Freezer RoomsThe latest requirements are issued by UNCED.

Check-by-case checking when compared bids

Checking of projectsThe question of clarity is asked.
insulated panelsUse of copper materials? How thick? The surface steel plates are sterilized?
floorAre the floorthermal insulation? Freer room?
cold room gateType of copper? Is there a door box for heating? Is there a safe opening mechanism in the bank?
refrigeration unitLaptops? The refrigeration point is counted?
ElectricityElectrical access to cable bags? If electricity is to be added?
Temperature monitoringHave a cloud temperature record with an hyper temperature warning?
ConstructionTransport, cooking, demolition of old parcels?
Maintenance(b) Several patient maintenance periods? Are there regular maintenance services at a later date?
Thanks to you: if several companies have a high price gap, it is usually simplistic and condensed. A fair approach is followed by the introduction of bids into the same table-by-project comparison.

Receipt and acceptance of sterile work quality method

  • Copper seals: The receptacle of the insulated panels is properly sealed and clearly depressed.
  • Crude clouds: After a certain period of operation, the outer walls, doorboxes should have concrete water or scrap.
  • cold room door seal: Laptops are tightly placed after the gate and leakproof. The freezer room gatebox is functioning properly.
  • Line crossing wallsrefrigerant tubes, electrical cables across the insulated panels ' positions are equipped with thermal insulation seals.
  • Rain temperature test: Cold room can be reduced to the target temperature within a reasonable time and stability is maintained.
  • DocumentationRequirement for insulated panels ' specifications, refrigeration unit information and maintenance provisions.

The ultraviolet is closed and doorboxed, often on behalf of a hot bridge, i.e., the refrigerant runs, tube lines or direct loss of structural position. The details of tumours are in the process of being stereotyped.

Common insulation work error zones

Missersion 1: petty cash only

PPPs may be used in smaller or poorer insulated panels, or leaked floorthermal insulation. The prelude may be even more expensive for electricity and maintenance per month thereafter.

Errency II: The better the thickness of the panels

Thermal computation can be seen, with a gradual reduction in thickness. Excessive thickness can only increase costs to reduce the space in the treasury, the most important being the appropriate thickness of temperatures.

Errency III: Looking at the floor withcold room door

The wall is fed but the floor thermal insulation, cold room door seals are lost. The freezer room floor was handled well and there could be unfrozen inflation.

Missquad IV: ⁇ thermal insulation materials

Fibrous materials, such as mineral cotton, can be found to fall significantly in the effects of sulation and suitable for cold room reservoirmal insulation.

Breaked area 5: Completed dressing

The ageing of the rubber, the damage to the sealed seals and the incalculation of the doorbox will result in a gradual change in the effect of thermal insulation. Regularcold room maintenanceIt is important.

insulation work maintenance and extended lifetime

  • Periodic inspection and replacement of old plutonium cold room door rubber
  • Crude sealed rubber, which is fractured to be filled
  • Looking out of the outer wall, door boxes or clouds
  • Avoiding forklift or hand drive to ininsulated panels
  • freezer room gatebox heating with drain pipe heating to test regularly
  • Concretes are regularly cleaned to reduce the burden of refrigeration systems

Insulation work price common problems

cold roominsulation work price point?

The material and thickness of the panels, surface materials, treasury areas, target temperatures, cold room door type, floorthermal insulation and protection, on-site construction conditions are affected by transport cooking. The complete cold room price is buried refrigeration unit, power-to- temperature monitoring, and it is generally up to the door level for accurate bids.

freezer roominsulated panels are thick?

The industry generally refers to chilled room approximately 75–100mm, freezer room orwalk-in cold room (18°C to -25°C) about 100–150 mm and an acute freeze bank (-30°C or below) about 150–200 mm. The physical thickness is calculated on the basis of environmental temperature, location and energy efficiency requirements.

Is the better the panels insulated?

It is certain. Sickness could reduce heat infiltration, but benefits would be reduced gradually and cost-sharing space would increase. The appropriate thickness of the same-use plutonium should be treated at temperatures, along with bricks, cold room door cobalt.

Cold roomthermal insulation can be used as mineral cotton?

Mineral cotton is fibrous material, and wet thermal insulation performance is expected to decline significantly. The cold room and external temperatures are very poor, and water vapour is easily infiltrated into concrete or even ice, so cold room is generally used in closed structures to PU or PIR ⁇ insulated panels.

The comparativecold room offer is left to be redundant?

The comparing of panels materials, thickness and surface material, cold room door, floor processing, refrigeration unit brand and refrigerant, electricity, temperature monitoring, maintenance period with post-sale service packages. It is easy to miss only the general price specifications.

Summary

Insulation work price earns a one-size-fits-all standard. The material, thickness, temperature, cold room door and floor-to-work conditions all affect the final offer. The ⁇ insulation work programme should be matched by appropriate specifications to the temperature of the goods, and the price content should be compared on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the cost of future cooking and maintenance.
