How Does Cavity Wall Insulation Work?

Thermal wall insulation acts as a shield that protects your home from heat penetration, by acting as a radiant barrier, by reducing convection by sealing the building and reducing conduction by reducing heat transfer. Insulation for walls is essential in ensuring that very little heat is transferred into your building by radiation, convection or conduction. There are a few different types of wall insulation, and the costs vary depending on whether you are insulating a home under construction or an existing home. The retrofit wall insulation cost tends to be a little higher as you are fitting in an already built home however, you will still save in energy bills over the long term.

How to Install Cavity Wall Insulation?

Installing wall insulation is a breeze when done with the right materials and preparation. Whether you want to install wall insulation during the construction phase of a building or fix insulation in existing walls, this process can be done relatively easily. The cavity wall insulation cost is dependent on a few factors, including the R value rating you require, the size of the building in question, and whether it is for a new or existing home. Existing homes may require retrofitting brick wall insulation. For more information on wall insulation installation, contact us today on 1800 354 717.
