Oskorp WUFI Calculations

Oskorp Offers WUFI Calculations: Taking Energy Efficiency to the Next Level

At Oskorp, we’re committed to helping our customers achieve the highest standards in energy-efficient building design. That’s why we’re excited to announce that we now offer WUFI calculations as part of our comprehensive support services. This advanced modeling tool enables you to design buildings that are not only energy-efficient but also resilient to moisture and climate challenges.

What Is WUFI?

WUFI (Wärme Und Feuchte Instationär) is a state-of-the-art simulation software developed to analyze heat and moisture transport in building components. It helps architects, builders, and contractors assess how materials and assemblies will perform under real-world climatic conditions.

Unlike static energy models, WUFI calculations take into account:

• Local Weather Conditions: Simulating the effects of temperature, humidity, wind, and solar radiation.
• Material Properties: Evaluating the performance of insulation, vapor barriers, and other building materials.
• Moisture Behavior: Ensuring that building assemblies remain dry and structurally sound over time.

This dynamic modeling helps ensure that every component of your building envelope is optimized for durability, efficiency, and comfort.

How WUFI Calculations Benefit You

1. Design Buildings with Confidence

WUFI allows you to predict the performance of materials and assemblies before construction begins. This minimizes risks like moisture buildup, mold growth, or thermal bridging, giving you confidence in your design.

2. Achieve Compliance with Passive House Standards

For builders aiming to construct PHIUS or Passive House-certified buildings, WUFI is an essential tool. It helps ensure that your building meets stringent energy efficiency and moisture control requirements.

3. Reduce Long-Term Costs

By identifying potential issues early, WUFI calculations can help you avoid costly repairs or retrofitting down the road. Properly designed assemblies improve durability and energy savings.

4. Tailored Solutions for Every Climate

Whether you’re building in the humid Southeast or the frigid Northeast, WUFI ensures that your building is tailored to its specific environment, reducing risks and enhancing performance.

Oskorp’s Expertise in WUFI Calculations

Our team is trained to use WUFI for a variety of applications, including:

• Roof Assemblies: Ensuring that roofing underlayments like Platina perform optimally under varying weather conditions.
• Vapor Barriers: Testing the effectiveness of membranes like Oskorp VARISMART Duo to maintain airtightness while managing moisture.
• Wall Systems: Analyzing how house wraps like Azura work in tandem with insulation and sealing tapes to protect and enhance the building envelope.
