A concrete block wall with external insulation project

A concrete block wall with external insulation project within the low energy projects category involves a floor area of 340m². The construction features a concrete block wall with 240mm of external insulation and a roof system by Thermohouse in Co. Kerry.

Key details of the project:

Construction details:

• Floor area: 340m²
• Concrete block wall construction with 240mm external insulation.
• Roof system by Thermohouse in Co. Kerry.

Ventilation and heating system:

• Nilan Compact P with Geo6 geothermal heat pump: The Nilan Compact P system is installed, featuring the Geo6 geothermal heat pump. This system provides both ventilation and heating. The Geo6 geothermal heat pump utilizes the earth's natural energy for efficient and sustainable heating.
• Underfloor heating: The underfloor heating system is connected to the Geo6 geothermal heat pump, providing efficient and comfortable space heating.
• Gas fire inset in living room: A gas fire inset is installed in the living room for additional heating and aesthetic purposes.

The project highlights a commitment to low-energy construction practices, incorporating external insulation for enhanced thermal performance. The Nilan Compact P with Geo6, coupled with underfloor heating and a gas fire inset, contributes to energy-efficient ventilation and heating solutions. The combination of innovative technologies and insulation measures creates a home that is not only environmentally friendly but also provides a comfortable living environment for its occupants.
