How to Install Solid Wall Insulation
Homes lose heat through their walls. In cases where there is no wall cavity (a space between two layers of bricks, common in modern builds), solid wall insulation becomes the only viable solution. This method involves placing solid insulation boards on either the internal or external face of the wall.
Although solid wall insulation can be expensive, it can have a remarkable impact on heat retention within the building, saving up to a quarter on energy bills, particularly for homes already equipped with loft insulation.
