A solid wall insulation system fitted on the outside of the wall is by far the most effective way of insulating a home to save energy and cut heating bills. Whilst thicknesses can vary, along with different insulation materials, a typical result is a 80% minimum reduction in thermal heat loss,measured in terms of a wall’s  insulation U value .

Compare the insulated house opposite with the one below.

 

The blue sections are cold so no heat is escaping through the insulated loft and roof areas. However, as the red colour shows, the un-insulated solid walls of this house are simply leaking heat at an alarming rate.

Given the ever-rising cost of our winter heating bills it is also our hard earned money disappearing through the walls as well!

No Damp Walls

Another huge benefit is that the condensation dew point on a solid wall is transferred outside the home so no damp can occur on interior wall surfaces that have been insulated externally by a trained specialist fitter.

This obviously has health benefits as well for those people with allergies and asthma and in particular small children and babies.

What About Internal Thermal Insulation?

 

When it is not technically possible to insulate externally or, if in so doing, you compromise the period look for example, then internal insulation or dry lining is a viable option.

Although not as efficient as fitting insulation boards on the outside of the walls, it can be used as an alternative  for example on a solid front wall that has architectural features that need to be preserved.
