Hi, I know this is a topic discussed loads across the forum. However I'm still a little unsure what to do, please help anyone!
I've just bought a house last summer that has a conservatory, and two of the wall are only single leaf brick. And as such when it's cold; we get chronic condensation all over the walls! The walls are now really mouldy and dripping wet most of the time, which makes the space unusable.
EWI is not possible so I was thinking of internal insulation. So my question really is what's best?
Could I simply fix some kingspan or celotex type insulation with the integral plaster board directly to the wall? Would this stop the wall getting cold and thus stop the condensation.
Or, should I use batons leaving an air gap? My only worry with the batons is this may lead to a mould farm growing inside the cavity itself?
Many thanks in advance!
