Wall insulation:

Walls are usually insulated  by fixing insulated panels to the exterior of the home after which a layer of render and decorative coating is applied.

Another way of doing it is by using timber battens and insulation which is applied to the exterior and then overclad with new finishes.

Windows

Note: As part of the works to install wall insulation to your park home, the windows will need to be moved outwards to line through with the outer skin and re-sealed.

As a result, you may wish to consider replacing the windows at the same time as installing the insulation to ensure you get the best benefit from the works.

You can apply for an upgrade of existing single glazing or triple glazing but we do not anticipate any grant funding for this measure.

Roof insulation:

Often carried out at the same time as the replacement of roof finishes, appropriately specified roof insulation will improve the energy performance of your home whilst ensuring the roof space is well ventilated (allowing air circulation and preventing condensation).

Underfloor insulation:

In most cases this will involve installing foil coated thermal insulation to the underside of the home.

Some systems apply spray foam directly to the underside of the floor, but this is likely to seal all the pipes and wiring, preventing any future access.
