Hi.
I am just about to start constructing the walls of a bungalow and need quite a few lintels.
I'm looking for some info on what I should be fitting.
The two brands I'm looking at are IG and Catnic.
As the building regs changed in October I'd like to know which ones I should be getting.
When I used to fit the ones for a 100mm cavity the insulated part was only 88mm wide, so it didn't close the whole cavity.
I've now had to build the walls with a 110mm cavity, but don't know if I can still get away with the lintels for a 100mm.
I need to know the correct specs as I'm trying to compare between the 2.
Thanks.
