Cavity Wall Insulation

Cavity wall insulation is normally applied from the outside. A trained technician drills small holes in the external wall using a pattern specified within the industry technical standards.

The cavity wall insulation material is then pumped into the holes using a blowing machine; this has an automatic cut-out (like a petrol pump) that actuates when the wall area is full. The holes are then made good to match the existing finish as closely as possible. Once installed, the cavity wall insulation requires no maintenance and will last for the lifetime of the building.

The Cavity Insulation Guarantee Agency (CIGA) provides an independent 25 year Guarantee for cavity wall insulation undertaken by approved installers. It is an entirely independent agency.

The period of guarantee is 25 years from the date of installation. CIGA guarantees that any defect in materials or workmanship in connection with the installation by an approved member installer shall be rectified without charge to the customer.
