What is Thermal Render Insulation ?

Did you know that a third of the heat energy required to heat a property escapes through the external walls ?

An insulated render wall system also know as External wall insulation is the perfect solution to this problem.

The system is designed to cover all types of wall substrates, new block and brick work, masonry painted surfaces including rendered walls, in fact most other substrates which are defective or porous. The system keeps the heat in and weather out, reducing heating bills up to 40% annually.

The system involves mechanically fixing of insulation to the outside of the building. This is then covered with mesh reinforcement, a base coat and final decorative finish. This layered method encases the property and helps prevent heat from escaping unnecessarily, containing it within the property.

Thermal wall render insulation

There are different types of Thermal Boards EPS, Phenolic and Mineral Wool. Thickness sizes from 10mm to 180mm, all have different insulating K Values.

In recent years the need to achieve lower U-Values and reduce heating costs and CO2 emissions has become a major priority for landlords, private properties, commercial buildings and government and housing association trusts.

To achieve this specifiers have the above choices to increase the thickness of insulation or to specify new products with lower "K" or insulation values than have been traditionally used.

Benefits of External:

Is installed without disruption to the home and does not get rid of any valuable living space.
Improves the appearance of aging exterior walls (planning permission may be required, so check with your council before undertaking any work).
Fills in any cracks in brickwork and consequently gets rid of any draughts they were causing.
Prolongs the lifetime of your property by protecting the brick/block work.
Eliminates penetrating damp, heat loss and CO2 emissions.
Reduces condensation on internal walls and also discourages damp issues.
Protects and prolongs the properties external fabric.
Are a cost effective alternative to demolition and new build.
