Portarlington Cavity Wall Insulation

Make your Portarlington home easier to heat

Cavity wall insulation is a highly effective method for significantly reducing heat loss in homes throughout Portarlington.

By filling the gap in your external walls with insulating material, it creates a powerful thermal barrier that not only retains warmth but also prevents cold air from entering, resulting in noticeably fewer draughts.

For homeowners in Portarlington and the surrounding Laois-Offaly region, Premier Insulations operates as a trusted, SEAI-registered installer, ensuring the work is completed to the highest standard and may qualify for grant support.

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

Is your home in Portarlington suitable?

Inspecting Portarlington homes for cavity wall insulation suitability involves a thorough assessment of several key factors. A borescope inspection is essential to confirm the cavity width is uniform and clear of excessive debris, while moisture readings are taken to ensure the wall is dry and free from dampness. The surveyor must also identify any existing wiring or services within the cavity that could pose a hazard. Finally, the property's exposure to wind-driven rain is evaluated to determine if additional protective measures are required for a successful and durable 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.
