QAWS :: Roofing Insulation?! Help!!

Chelsea
By Chelsea

We're in the middle of building our new kennel block (which is supposed to be finished before the open day on friday) and I've just been told we need roofing insulation.

Any ideas where I can get this from and how much it would cost?

Unfortunately QAWS has NO money at the moment so if anyone can help out with this we would be eternally grateful! Does anyone know a company that might be able to donate us some at such short notice?

We're looking at insulating an area of 250 sq.m which is nothing for one of the large companies!

Anyone who thinks they can help please call 539 6074

angel - they've tried and tried and tried and tried to get charity status from the 'higher authorities', but so far no luck. Chelsea will fill you in on the reasons why it hasn't been granted, if she thinks it is appropriate to discuss them on a public forum!

Animal protection is not a priority in this part of the world... Shelter is run on donation in kind. Chelsea will explain more

But since we're expecting a big group tomorrow, maybe we could pool ideas together and come up with a solution.

I'm sure QLSG & QLVG and the other groups would be willing to help out...right?

insulation per sq. meter is QR.24/-

It seems Qatar Insulation Factory is closed for the day, we can only do it on Saturday or Sunday.

I will go to some shops in the afternoon to see if the Roof and Wall insulation is available.

I will call you later.

Thank you!! As soon as I get a quote I'll let you know the damage!

Just so I don't sound like a complete idiot on the phone:

1. Is the insulation for the roof and the walls the same stuff?

2. What's it called or if I just say I need insulation foam they'll know what I mean.

The insulation is the most important at the moment because the roof and walls cant go up without it.

As a rough guide we need 150 sq.m of roof insulation and 100 sq.m of wall insulation (apparently not the same thing!).

I'm trying to get a quote but unfortunately I can't find an insulation company with a working telephone number!

Xray have you got another number for Cape? That one's a fax machine!

the material availability is not the problem...it's THE FUNDS.

I hope there's a big turnout tomorrow too. I know that QAR20(or more) from each won't generate enough but it's a start.

Unfortunately not - because of where we've built the shelter, there's no external walls for window a/cs.

We also have to replace 2 of the existing window a/cs in the older part of the shelter with splits because we've built the new kennels up against the wall and have had to remove them.

Due to a severe lack of space that's the only place where they could have been built.

ya .. Good morning Azilana !! Miss U girl.

and about the a/c, instead of splits - the windows a/c's are cheaper - would they work?

Chelsea mentioned that they need to insulate an area area of 250 sq.m.

Thanks, rizks :-)

By Chelsea• 7 May 2009 10:50
Chelsea

We need 250 sq.m Roofing Insulation definitely and hopefully some insulation sheets for the walls too !!

And we also need split a/c's but they're not a priority at the moment - we need to get the walls up first!

Speed and the other guys from QLVG have been fantastic and we wouldn't have got this far without them!

He owns a construction company/or consultancy here in Qatar. Maybe he could spare some.

Won't promise, but I'll try my best...

By Chelsea• 7 May 2009 09:42

I know!! We're looking at that too. The rest of the shelter is fully insulated.

btw. if you did not insulate the walls, should not expect too much a/c efficiency

Thanks for the tips! We need the most efficient insulation to keep the a/c in!

There are simple ways yet effective:

1. use loose aggregates to cover the roof

2. build a shade on top of the roof using those green mesh rolls

good luck
