CTH Timber Frame - Thermal Modelling

CTH moves closer to lowering the carbon foot print

Canadian Timber Homes has just released the latest programme of expert 3rd party calculations for "Thermal Modelling" on key building elements used throughout our housing.

As a result we can not only provide superior thermal capabilities to reduce dependency on heating costs but also maximise the floor space available through thinner walls by embracing the latest technology. This is all whilst still being fully compliant with Parts F & L.
