Hi,
I purchased a new house last year which was built in 2007 and have a few questions about the insulation.
Between the brick and block there is a thin layer of uFoil for insulation and nothing else. I've heard that changes to building reg's have replaced this with foam insulation as this is a more effective way of insulating the wall.
Can anyone tell me when these changes came into effect, and if in fact foam is better than uFoil?
I'm asking this because my lounge in particular is very cold compared to the rest of the house and I'm concerned that the insulation is lacking in some way.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Neil.
