Attic

Attic Insulation

Attic and Roof Insulation is one of the most cost effective ways to insulate your home to a high standard. This system can reduce heating bill by as much as 25% providing comfort and warmth in your home. This is one of the most simplest and cheapest measures that can be taken when insulating your home and the results will speak for themselves. As we know when air heats up it rises, if your attic is not insulated then most of the heating in the home will be lost through this area.

Providing for Access to Tanks, Services and Fittings in the Roofspace Because the depth of insulation will obscure the location of ceiling joists, provision should be made for access from the access hatch to the cold water tank and to other fittings to which access for occasional maintenance and servicing may be required. This can be done by provision of walkways without compressing the installed insulation or by the use of high density insulation under the walkway or by installing composite attic boards.

Minimising the Extent of Cold Bridging Particular areas of potential cold bridging include junctions with external walls at eaves and gables, and junctions with solid party walls. Gaps in the insulation should be avoided and the insulation should fit tightly against joists, noggings, bracing etc. Insulation joints should be closely butted and joints in upper and lower layers of insulation should be staggered

Protecting Water Tanks and Pipework Against the Risk of Freezing. All pipework on the cold side of the insulation should be adequately insulated. Where the cold water cistern is located in the attic, as is normally the case, the top and sides of the cistern should be insulated. The area underneath the cistern should be left uninsulated and continuity of tank and ceiling insulation should be ensured, e.g. by overlapping the tank and ceiling insulation. Provision should be made to ensure ventilation of the tank. Where raised tanks are used, (to aid head pressure), the ceiling should be insulated normally and the tank insulated separately.

Internal

Internal Drylining Insulation

  • Internal Drylining Insulation is one of the most cost effective ways to insulate your home to a high standard. This system can reduce heating bill by as much as 30% providing comfort and warmth in your home.

  • The system is ideally installed to blockwall construction or can become part of a mixed system of internal and external insulation depending on type of build.

  • The insulation is installed on the inner face of the masonry walls. It may be installed between preservative-treated timber studs fixed to the wall, or in the form of composite boards of plaster backed with insulation, or as a combination of these.

External Drylining Insulation

  • External Wall insulation can reduce bills by up to 35%. It is the most effective way to wrap your home as it covers all areas and junctions in on most properties.

  • Comfort is probably the most important factor in our health and well-being. An interior which makes its occupants feel as comfortable as possible is a healthy, actively beneficial environment.

  • By reducing the amount of heat escaping through your walls, you can heat your home faster and keep it warmer for longer using external wall insulation (EWI).

  • By choosing to have external wall insulation you are helping to reduce carbon emissions. - Low disruption . Although not disruption free, external wall insulation is a significant undertaking, however, it offers less disruption to your home life than internal solid wall insulation. It also won't affect the size of your rooms.
