Make your Portlaoise home easier to heat

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

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

For a professional installation, Premier Insulations is an SEAI-registered installer trusted to service homes in Portlaoise and the surrounding localities.

Consequently, residents can enjoy a consistently comfortable living environment while also benefiting from lower energy bills.

Is your home in Portlaoise suitable?

Inspecting Portlaoise homes for cavity wall insulation suitability involves a thorough assessment of several key factors. A borescope inspection is essential to verify the cavity width is consistent and clear of excessive debris, ensuring it can properly accommodate the insulating material. We must also check for any signs of moisture penetration and assess the condition and placement of existing electrical wiring to prevent future issues. Finally, evaluating the property's exposure to wind-driven rain is crucial for determining the appropriate insulation material and mitigating potential dampness risks.

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.
