Timber Frame Insulation

Installing timber frame wall insulation during construction or as prefabricated elements is the common method. It can sometimes also be retrofitted to existing properties.

Key tips:

• Choose insulation type – Pick an insulation product suited to the size and dimensions of the frame.
• Build airtight – Apply an airtight vapour barrier on the inside of the construction to avoid thermal performance loss.
• Weatherproof – Avoid insulation and the timber frame getting wet where possible, as this can lead to leaks before the insulation is installed.

Made from highly sustainable stone wool, ROCKWOOL insulation aims to vastly improve the energy efficiency of every building where it is applied. It can be used to meet the Passive House standards⁴ – creating energy-efficient buildings that promote indoor comfort and acoustic insulation.

Our timber frame wall insulation enhances thermal performance and lowers energy consumption.
