Hello there
I am renovating my 1950's added kitchen in which I will dry line the walls using metal framework. The walls are not plumb so the framework will be fixed to the concrete floor and ceiling joists. This will leave a gap of around 75mm-100mm behind the framework.
What is the best way to insulte this wall? It's a double brick wall with no cavity. I think the previous owners had problems with condensation in the past as he was using a dehumidifier. No signs of damp. I may add some velux windos at a later stage which might deal with this problem.
I have 50mm double backed Kingspan but i'm not sure if I should put it behind the frame and glue/fix directly to the wall, leave and air gap, fit a breather sheet, fit TLX silver, fit it between the framework.......God knows. There are so many theories on this subject.
I'm open to professional suggestions as I am just a DIY guy.
