During these cooler months, West Coast Insulation is recommending homeowners take advantage of the current grant scheme which covers a large part of the cost of insulation works. The scheme to install upgraded insulation has increased the amounts involved to €3,250 for detached houses, €2,550 for semidetached, €2,050 for mid-terrace and €1,550 for apartments. This usually covers a large percentage of the overall cost of the work and the works can usually be completed in one working day.
Homeowners can contact the Galway company for a free quotation for cavity wall and attic insulation. John Folan of West Coast Insulation will look after the applications forms to make the process as simple as possible for homeowners. The increased grant package delivered by West Coast Insulation and supplier Kingspan EcoBead makes insulating your home more attractive than ever.
When insulating a house, the company injects EcoBead Platinum Bonded Bead in the cavity walls even when there is existing Aerobord insulation. This significantly improves the U-values and heat retention and also fills in any gaps in the older insulation. They keep the injection holes closer together to ensure the walls are filled 100 per cent and that the bead is packed as tightly as possible. The company installs Knauf Rolled mineral wool or Rockwool pumped insulation in the attics. John Folan of West Coast Insulation noted “most attics have some existing fibreglass insulation at around 100 -150mm depth. The problem with fibreglass is that it shrinks over time and need to be replaced. We install Knauf or Rockwool attic insulation to 300mm giving the best u-values possible. We also fit the insulating jackets and lids around the tanks, fit the heavy duty 19mm lagging on the pipes and insulate the attic door”.
