Durrus Cavity Wall Insulation

Make your Durrus home easier to heat

Cavity wall insulation significantly reduces heat loss in homes by filling the gap in external walls with an effective insulating material, ensuring that warmth generated inside is retained for much longer.

This creates a more consistent internal temperature and acts as a formidable barrier against the elements, resulting in noticeably fewer cold draughts throughout the property.

For homeowners in Durrus seeking this upgrade, Premier Insulations is an SEAI-registered installer, trusted to provide this service locally and in the surrounding West Cork area.

This investment ultimately cultivates a sense of calm, everyday comfort within your home, while concurrently leading to lower energy consumption and reduced heating bills.

Is your home in Durrus suitable?

Inspecting a Durrus home for cavity wall insulation begins with a thorough assessment of several key factors. A borescope inspection is used to confirm the cavity width is uniform and suitable for filling, typically between 50mm and 100mm. We then meticulously check for any signs of moisture penetration, pre-existing rubble, or obsolete wiring within the wall that could compromise the installation's safety and effectiveness. Finally, the property's exposure to wind-driven rain is evaluated to ensure the chosen insulation material is appropriate for the local coastal climate.

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 suitable for most properties, effectively filling the cavity to reduce heat loss. Alternatively, insulating foam is injected as a liquid that expands to create a seamless thermal barrier, offering excellent resistance to air leakage in homes with consistently sized cavity walls.
