The Benefits Of Duramax Vinyl Panels For Residential Ceilings

23 July, 2021

When looking to remodel just about any room in your home, installing Duramax vinyl panels on your home ceiling is not only economical, but they are also eye appealing.  With their inherent ability to add a rather exquisite appearance to almost any space, they also provide the added benefit of being energy-efficient.

With their growing popularity and demand, Duramax vinyl panels are the perfect choice for those residential homeowners who struggle with a restricted budget or have limited requirements.  In the past, plaster of Paris and gypsum boards were the most commonly used materials, but both materials require proper and specific handling conditions.  

On the other hand, Duramax vinyl panels are lightweight and significantly easier to both install and maintain over time.  To this end, let’s look at some of the information available pertaining to Duramax vinyl panels.

False Ceilings

Duramax vinyl ceilings, constructed of a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) material, are commonly used in residential homes as a cladding material—most generally on the ceilings.  The design of PVC, by its very nature, is strong, lightweight, and seamless and can be purchased in a variety of designs, colors, sizes, and lengths depending on the needs of your construction.

Duramax vinyl ceilings have a smooth, shiny surface, allowing them to be waterproof.  This waterproofing makes them the perfect choice for those areas that are high in moisture, such as bathrooms and basements.  As with any other product, there are several pros and cons to its use.

Pros:

PVC is not a brittle material – unlikely to get damaged while handling and installing

Affordability

Ease of installation – without dealing with dust and debris

Waterproof, termite-proof – prevents the growth of mold, mildew, and bacteria

 

Cons:

Give the appearance of plastic – due to the material they are constructed from

Although the panels fit snuggly, the is still a slightly visible joint space.

As the nature of the material is PVC, it can be damaged by heat – only energy-efficient lighting can be installed in vinyl panel ceilings

When exposed to heat – vinyl panels will release chlorine gas
