Clonakilty Cavity Wall Insulation

Make your Clonakilty home easier to heat

Cavity wall insulation significantly enhances a home's thermal efficiency by filling the gap between the inner and outer walls with a specialised material, which acts as a barrier to substantially reduce unwanted heat loss.

This continuous layer of insulation not only retains warmth but also helps to seal gaps in the wall fabric, resulting in noticeably fewer draughts and a more stable, comfortable indoor environment throughout the year.

Is your home in Clonakilty suitable?

Inspecting Clonakilty homes for cavity wall insulation begins with a thorough assessment of several key factors. We first determine the cavity width to ensure it meets the minimum requirement for the chosen insulation material. A critical moisture check is then conducted to confirm the cavity is completely dry and free from pre-existing damp issues. The survey also includes inspecting for any hidden wiring or obstructions and evaluating the property's exposure to wind-driven rain, which is essential for long-term performance and compliance with building standards.

The two primary cavity wall insulation systems are blown mineral fibre and injected foam. Blown mineral fibre, such as glass or rock wool, is a non-combustible material ideal for most standard cavities, providing excellent thermal and acoustic performance. Alternatively, polyurethane foam is injected as a liquid that expands to fill the cavity, forming a highly effective air-tight seal particularly beneficial for properties with irregular wall constructions.
