Abstract
In a method for heat-insulating and protecting roofed structures such as residential houses and greenhouses against the action of wind and rain, the exterior of the structure is provided with a covering constituted by interlaced threads of mineral fibers assembled together and preferably by a knitted fabric of glass fiber threads. In the case of a house, the roof and walls are covered in such a manner as to leave a free air space between the covering, the roof or the walls.
Claims4
A house having a roof and impermeable external walls, a translucent open-mesh knitted fabric of glass fiber threads on the exterior of at least said external walls, said meshes being substantially two to six times the diameter of said threads, and means spacing said fabric from said external walls to maintain an empty space between the external surfaces of the external walls and said fabric thereby to induce a greenhouse effect in said empty space while at the same time permitting circulation of air through said fabric so as to avoid condensation of moisture in said empty space.
