Cavity Wall Insulation
If your property was constructed after 1930, it likely features Cavity Walls. A Cavity Wall consists of two masonry walls (brick or block) with a minimum 40mm gap between them. Identified by the ‘stretcher bond’ brick pattern or a thickness exceeding 270mm, Cavity Wall Insulation involves injecting bonded polystyrene beads through drilled holes in the mortar joints. The process, supported by a 20-year insurance-backed guarantee, enhances energy efficiency, potentially saving up to £150 annually on heating bills and improving your property’s Energy Performance Certificate rating.
Enhanced Energy Efficiency: Cavity wall insulation acts as a thermal barrier, reducing heat loss and making homes more energy-efficient.
Cost Savings: By minimizing heat loss, insulation can lead to significant savings on heating bills, contributing to long-term cost-effectiveness.
Improved Comfort: Insulation helps maintain a more consistent and comfortable temperature within the home, reducing drafts and cold spots.
Environmental Impact: Increased energy efficiency means lower carbon emissions, aligning with sustainability goals and reducing the environmental impact of energy consumption.
Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) Improvement: Cavity wall insulation can raise the Energy Performance Certificate rating of a property, enhancing its overall energy efficiency profile.
Year-Round Benefits: Insulation not only keeps homes warmer in winter but can also provide a cooling effect in warmer months, contributing to year-round comfort.
Condensation Control: Cavity wall insulation helps control condensation within the walls, reducing the risk of dampness and associated issues.
Property Value Enhancement: Improving the energy efficiency of a property through cavity wall insulation can potentially increase its market value and attractiveness to potential buyers.
