Internal Wall Insulation can be used for commercial and residential properties, as it enhances indoor comfort and energy efficiency. There are several options for insulating interior walls, each aimed at reducing heat transfer, enhancing sound quality, or improving fire safety.
Discover the advantages and cost savings of using Manchester Energy Grants for interior wall insulation.
What is the purpose of internal wall insulation?
Installing top-notch interior wall insulation is an excellent way to preserve great air circulation, guard against fire hazards, and enhance sound quality.
Not only does it boost energy efficiency, but it also creates a comfortable living or working space for all types of interior walls:
1• Partition walls – are non-structural walls used to divide a room and are often made of wood or metal studs with a plasterboard finish.
2• Dry lining walls – Similar in construction to partition walls, these are installed inside the outer wall to enhance comfort.
3• Separation walls: Party walls divide adjacent flats, houses, and rooms in residential properties.
Internal Insulation installations can be more convenient and practical for properties like flats. Our products won’t affect the exterior appearance, for example, with dry lining walls, where insulation can be put in place before covering it with cladding and painting.
