mads Posted Saturday at 10:48 Posted Saturday at 10:48 So… somewhere between my contractor, the builders merchant and the manufacturer, they’ve ordered the wrong wall insulation. Whilst what they have ordered doesn’t have a significant difference in u-value (0.021 vs 0.02) when I scale this out across the entire build envelope it does take it above the threshold we set for SAP etc. Plus I’m a little loathed to compromise on something that is going to have to last the life of the house. The correct one will take 10-20 days to be manufactured and shipped from Ireland to us which has impact on brickies who were due to start on Monday to build ground floor walls. Bit of a long shot but does anyone have some Unilin ECO360 CavityTherm ECO/CT 150mm that they aren’t needing just yet? We can get ours ordered and then do a swap once it arrives or have delivered to you to replace.
Mr Punter Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago Sadly the bricklayers will find it very hard to work with and detail. I have never seen this installed correctly. You would be better off using Dritherm 32 batts, which are far easier to install. You will get a much better actual result.
