The injected cavity wall insulation product range is part of Owns Corning's sytem of insulation solutions for walls, and the range includes Supafil which we mainly use, which is specifically designed for injecting into existing masonary cavity walls, and is "Mineral Wool" as defined in BS 3533: 1981.
In an uninsulated home, the greatest loss of heat is through the walls - about 35%, compared with 25% through the roof. Installing cavity wall insulation slows down the rate of heat loss by up to 66%, therefore giving immediate savings on fuel bills.
Condensation and mould growth are a major concern. In most cases the first priority should always be to keep the building warm. Cavity wall insulation keeps heat where it should be - inside the building. Reduced heat flow through the structure keeps the inner wall surfaces and the inside air warmer, thereby greatly reducing the risk of condensation and mould growth.
If you are interested in a survey on your building for cavity wall insulation then please do not hesitate to contact us. Our surveys are free and we will discuss any grants with you that are available.
