Make your Larne 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 barrier to keep warmth inside.

This barrier not only retains heat more efficiently but also helps to create a more sealed building envelope, resulting in noticeably fewer draughts throughout the property.

For homeowners in Larne, Premier Insulations is an SEAI-registered installer that provides this service, ensuring quality workmanship and compliance with national standards for the local area and beyond.

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

Is your home in Larne suitable?

Inspecting Larne homes for cavity wall insulation suitability involves a thorough assessment of several key factors. A borescope inspection is first used to determine the cavity width and confirm it meets the minimum requirement, typically 50mm. The surveyor also meticulously checks for any signs of moisture penetration, assesses the condition of existing electrical wiring within the cavity, and evaluates the property's exposure to wind-driven rain. This comprehensive evaluation ensures that only suitable properties are insulated, safeguarding against future damp issues and guaranteeing optimal thermal performance.

The two primary cavity wall insulation systems are partial-fill and full-fill. Partial-fill involves installing a rigid insulation board against the inner leaf of the wall, leaving an air gap that enhances weather resistance. Full-fill systems completely pack the cavity with insulating material like mineral wool or beads, offering superior thermal performance but requiring meticulous installation to prevent moisture transfer across the cavity.
