External Wall Insulation
Applied to existing walls, this method improves thermal efficiency by covering the external insulation with render or cladding for weather protection.
Advantages of External Wall Insulation
1 Prevents Floor Space Loss
Unlike internal insulation, external wall insulation doesn’t reduce your indoor floor space. It avoids the need to build a frame and add insulation inside your home, preserving your room dimensions.
2 Lack of a Wall Cavity
Many older homes lack a wall cavity, which makes traditional cavity wall insulation impossible. For these homes, EcoPrro offers expert solutions like external wall insulation, tailored specifically for properties without cavities.
3Weather Protection
External insulation acts as a protective layer against weather elements, prolonging the lifespan of your building’s exterior and reducing maintenance costs.
4 Reduced Cold Bridging
Applying insulation to the exterior creates a continuous barrier, minimizing cold spots and drafts. This keeps your home warmer and more energy-efficient.
5Eco-Friendly Comfort
By significantly reducing energy consumption, external wall insulation not only helps lower your carbon footprint but also contributes to a more sustainable future.This insulation keeps your home warm during colder months.
