Oughterard Cavity Wall Insulation

Make your Oughterard home easier to heat

Cavity wall insulation significantly reduces heat loss in homes by filling the gap between the outer and inner walls with a specialised material, creating an effective thermal barrier that keeps warmth inside.

This barrier not only retains heat but also helps to minimise cold spots and draughts, leading to a more consistent and comfortable indoor temperature throughout the property.

For homeowners in Oughterard, Premier Insulations is an SEAI-registered installer that provides professional cavity wall insulation services to the local area and its surrounding regions.

This upgrade ultimately fosters a calmer, more comfortable living environment while contributing to noticeably lower energy bills.

Is your home in Oughterard suitable?

Our inspection of Oughterard homes for cavity wall insulation suitability involves a thorough assessment of several key factors. We begin by using a borescope to confirm the cavity width is uniform and suitable for insulation material. Concurrently, we meticulously check for any signs of moisture penetration and assess the condition and placement of existing electrical wiring within the wall. Finally, we evaluate the property's exposure to wind-driven rain to ensure long-term performance and integrity post-installation.

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.
