Cavity Wall Insulation
This is a method of insulating a home by literally blowing insulation material into the cavity between the inner and outer walls. Just imagine wrapping a blanket around your home.
If you're monthly heating bill is £40 it is possible to make a saving of £150 a year by having cavity wall insulation inserted.
J J Crump & Son use a second generation cavity wall insulation product which has been developed to meet the ever increasing demands of an energy conscious community.
This product known as Instafibre White Wool is purpose made and meets the stringent requirements of the latest Building Regulations. Instafibre is also guaranteed for 25 years by the Cavity Insulation Guarantee Agency (CIGA), the Government endorsed guarantee scheme. |

Without cavity wall insulation installed, heat is lost through the empty cavity in your external walls. With InstaFibre installed, heat is radiated back into your home. More heat is lost through the walls of our homes than in any other way. A staggering 35% of our domestic heat is wasted across un-insulated cavity walls, which means that we are consuming energy far in excess of
our needs.
New Building Regulations introduced by the Government require an increase in the amount of insulation fitted in all new homes to make heating more efficient, more economical to run and to help conserve the world's natural resources. Soon we will all be expected to save energy by insulating our homes to a
required standard.
J&J Crump & Son Ltd use InstaFibre material a blown mineral wool, which, once installed in the cavity wall, forms an insulative barrier, which retains the heat inside your home. It works by storing the heat in the inner wall and radiating it back into the home - with the effect that you can turn down your heating without losing out on comfort. It also maintains a constant temperature throughout the home. One of the benefits of this is to eliminate condensation. Draughts are also reduced as InstaFibre seals off the gap around badly fitting door and window frames. InstaFibre makes your home warmer and cheaper to run by cutting the cost of your heating.
