WHAT PROBLEMS CAN DEFECTIVE CAVITY WALL INSULATION CAUSE?

Defective cavity wall insulation can lead to a variety of issues, including wetness in your home and health risks.

Water seeps into a property’s walls due to improper cavity wall insulation, producing structural issues and moist patches that can lead to mould growth. The damp and mould can sometimes cause health problems or aggravate existing illnesses, notably respiratory disorders.

POOR CAVITY WALL INSTALLATION

Unfortunately, poor installation of cavity wall insulation is not uncommon. Poor installation is frequently to blame for moisture and condensation concerns within a building.

Cavity wall insulation is not suited for walls exposed to harsh weather conditions, such as wind-driven rain, because a little flaw in the brickwork or a lack of masonry protection cream on the outside walls means the insulation is liable to becoming damp or even sopping wet.

The damp insulation then spans across the cavity, allowing the inside walls to become wet, resulting in damp, condensation, and even mould growth.

WET CAVITY INSULATION

When cavity insulation gets wet, it loses its ability to insulate. Insulation can become wet for a variety of causes, including flooding and permeable wall materials like brickwork. Wet cavity wall insulation traps moisture within the home, causing damp in the afflicted regions.

RELEASE OF TOXIC GASES

Defective cavity wall insulation materials, such as urea-formaldehyde, can break down over time, releasing harmful poisonous vapours into the air and thereby affecting indoor air quality. Many types of early foam insulation do not meet today’s stringent regulations, putting this sort of cavity wall insulation at risk of harmful gas leakage.

There are now much better regulations and licences in place that specify the minimum grade of materials used for insulation. Furthermore, the Cavity Insulation Guarantee Agency (CIGA) guarantees modern insulation for 30 years.
