Rathdrum Cavity Wall Insulation

Make your Rathdrum 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, which acts as a continuous thermal barrier to keep warmth inside.

This barrier not only retains heat but also minimises the infiltration of cold air, resulting in noticeably fewer draughts and a more consistent internal temperature throughout the property.

For homeowners in Rathdrum seeking these benefits, Premier Insulations is an SEAI-registered installer, ensuring that all work is performed to the highest standard and is eligible for grant support, and they reliably serve Rathdrum and the surrounding areas.

This upgrade ultimately cultivates a sense of calm comfort within the home while concurrently leading to lower energy consumption and reduced heating bills.

Is your home in Rathdrum suitable?

Inspecting Rathdrum homes for cavity wall insulation begins with a thorough assessment of several key factors. A borescope inspection is essential to determine the cavity width and confirm it meets the minimum requirement for material installation. We also meticulously check for any signs of moisture penetration, assess the condition and placement of existing electrical wiring, and evaluate the property's exposure to wind-driven rain. This comprehensive evaluation ensures the home is a suitable candidate, guaranteeing the insulation will perform effectively and without risk to the building's structure.

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.
