Kinsale Cavity Wall Insulation

Make your Kinsale home easier to heat

Cavity wall insulation significantly reduces heat loss in homes by filling the gap between the inner and outer walls with an effective insulating material, which acts as a 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 Kinsale, Premier Insulations is an SEAI-registered installer, providing trusted cavity wall insulation services to the town and its surrounding areas in County Cork.

This upgrade ultimately fosters a more comfortable living environment while concurrently leading to lower energy consumption and reduced heating bills.

Is your home in Kinsale suitable?

Inspecting a Kinsale home for cavity wall insulation suitability requires 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 insulation material injection. The survey must also check for any signs of moisture penetration, assess the condition and location of electrical wiring, and evaluate the property's exposure to wind-driven rain. This comprehensive evaluation ensures the installation will be effective, safe from potential damp issues, and 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 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.
