Insulated buildings are exposed to the external environment due to aging and construction problems, resulting in a decrease in building energy efficiency. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to provide a material for the change in thermal conductivity of the insulation when it is exposed to various external environments. In the experiment, five types of heat insulating materials were selected, stored under different environmental conditions, and the thermal conductivity was measured periodically to confirm the change in thermal conductivity. As a result, the thermal conductivity of all the insulating materials except the PF board increased with the passage of time. This is because thermal insulation absorbs atmospheric moisture under all environmental conditions and the thermal conductivity increases, and in the case of thermal insulation stored indoors in environmental conditions, the temperature differs from the thermal insulation stored outside. It is considered that there is little evaporation of moisture absorbed constantly, and the change in thermal conductivity is large.
