Make your Draperstown home easier to heat

Cavity wall insulation significantly reduces heat loss in Draperstown homes by filling the gap between external and internal brickwork with effective insulating material.

This creates a continuous thermal barrier, which not only retains warmth but also minimises cold spots and leads to noticeably fewer draughts throughout the property.

For homeowners in Draperstown and the surrounding areas, Premier Insulations is an SEAI-registered installer, ensuring the work is completed to the highest standard and may qualify for grant support.

This upgrade ultimately fosters a more consistently comfortable living environment while contributing to lower annual energy bills.

Is your home in Draperstown suitable?

Inspecting Draperstown homes for cavity wall insulation begins with a thorough assessment of several key factors. We first measure the cavity width to ensure it meets the minimum requirement for effective material filling. A critical moisture check is then conducted within the cavity to identify any pre-existing dampness that could lead to problems. Finally, we inspect for any hidden wiring obstructions and evaluate the property's exposure to wind-driven rain, which is essential for determining long-term suitability and insulation performance.

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 inhibiting heat transfer. Injected foam systems, like polyurethane, expand to fill the cavity completely, offering excellent thermal performance but requiring professional assessment to ensure compatibility with the building's exposure to wind-driven rain.
