Why Install External Wall Insulation?

External wall insulation dramatically increases your home’s energy efficiency. Not only does it reduce the load on your heating and cooling systems by regulating your indoor temperatures, but it also helps reduce your energy bills long-term. Good external insulation also supports a healthier home by limiting moisture buildup and condensation issues.

Types of External Wall Insulation

There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to insulating your external walls. The right product for you will depend on the unique needs of your home. Whether you need premium thermal performance for extreme temperatures, acoustic control for enhanced privacy, moisture protection to keep your home healthy, or a combination of all three, you can choose the right external wall insulation materials for your needs.

Thermal Exterior Wall Insulation

Thermal exterior wall insulation materials are designed to reduce heat transfer through your walls. It's ideal for maintaining consistent indoor temperatures and improving the overall energy efficiency of your home. You can find a wide range of thermal insulation materials for your needs.

Acoustic Exterior Wall Insulation

Acoustic insulation is a practical choice for anyone wanting a quieter, more peaceful indoor environment. If noise is a concern where you live, whether it's from noisy neighbours or traffic, this insulation adds an extra buffer from the outside world. You can find a range of acoustic insulation options for your home.

Wall Wrap Exterior Insulation

Wall wraps help protect your home from the elements. Reflective wraps like Aircell or products from the Ametalin range can help manage radiant heat by reflecting it away from the structure. Breathable wall wraps such as the Wall Wrap and the Pro Clima range offer excellent weatherproofing and air barrier properties and should always be used in combination with insulation materials for maximum thermal performance.

Rigid Board Insulation

Rigid boards offer high thermal resistance in compact form. They offer long-term durability and excellent thermal performance.

How to Install External Wall Insulation

External wall insulation installation is best done before the plasterboard goes in. DIY installation is possible for straightforward projects, but for more complex homes, professional installation is the best way to ensure correct installation and optimum results. If you’re going to DIY:

  • Measure and cut the insulation.
  • Clean and prepare the wall surface.
  • Install wall wrap or a moisture barrier.
  • Fit insulation snugly with no gaps.
