Cavity Wall Insulation
Improve Energy Efficiency with Cavity Wall Insulation – Save Money Now
Not all homes are suitable for insulation, which is why it’s essential to consult a reputable and experienced company to conduct a thorough survey of your property before making any decisions. Did you know that if your home was built before 1985, you could be losing up to 35% of valuable heat through the walls? Shocking, isn’t it? Installing cavity wall insulation can significantly reduce this loss, helping you save money on your energy bills.
You might be wondering: how can I tell if my cavity walls are insulated? And how does insulation actually help me save money?
Here’s what you need to know:
- Cavity walls are constructed with two layers of brick separated by a gap.
- Modern homes already have insulation within the cavity.
- Homes built between 1924 and 1982 are likely to have cavity walls suitable for insulation.
- Proper cavity wall insulation helps retain heat, keeping your home warmer and ensuring a comfortable living environment.
What is Cavity Wall Insulation?
- If your property was built after 1930, it is likely to feature cavity walls. These walls consist of two layers separated by a 40mm cavity designed to enhance insulation and energy efficiency.
- Cavity wall insulation is installed by drilling small holes into the external wall and injecting a bonded insulating material into the cavity. Homes with cavity walls typically have bricks arranged in a uniform pattern, laid lengthwise for structural stability and aesthetic appeal.
