I personally just cannot see what all the fuss is about and why no other product range is put under the payback microscope and an ownership decision is based around the return on capital spent acquiring it. When we buy an oven or a condensing boiler or even a car we don’t ask the sales person how long the payback period is !  Similarly when installing new windows how many of us have want to know the payback period and have then based our decision on whether we recoup our money within 10 or 15 years ?

..

It seems completely irrational and detracts away from the real reason most people take action ie they feel cold in the house, the house is damp or the heating bills are getting ridiculous . In the case of an existing cement rendered property where the render is failing the home owner has got to replace the outside coating anyway !

..

I believe we should ignore the payback calculation and instead revert to common sense. If the product – wall insulation in this case – solves the problem and is affordable and trustworthy then go ahead and buy it. The fact it is also great for the environment is an added bonus and surely makes the decision simple.

..

So, forget payback and just ask yourself the following ;

.

Will it solve my problem ?

Is it trustworthy ?

Does it help the environment?

Can I afford it ?

..

If the answers to the above are yes, then just DO IT !!

The arctic type cold and easterly winds often cause the temperature of solid walls to drop and the moist internal air caused by our central heating has problems passing through the plaster and brick in vapour form.

When this moist air hits a cold wall surface the moisture turns to water droplets and wets the walls. Black spot mould then can thrive and stain the wall as well as infecting the air we breathe.

The cure is to get the walls sufficiently warm to allow the vapour to pass through without condensing into water.

The solution is to either alter the nature of the wall by wall insulation or alter the heating source to heat the walls directly and not to heat the air directly as our central heating does.

Penetrating damp and damp mould can be stopped permanently by either method and Multiguard specialise in external wall insulation and the latest direct thermal heating systems.
