Older brick homes constructed in times when energy costs were low were not built to accommodate insulation Outer walls may be 4inchthick bricks with inner walls of concrete brick or cinder block that is also 4 inches thick The thin furring strips that hold the inside walls to this material leaves little room for insulation
For the refusetoenergy industry “Saving Energy with Brick Refractory Insulation and Lagging BRIL” is as simply as understanding it’s refuse boilerA refusefired boiler has many components to make it do what it is supposed to do BRIL is a key component of the boiler just as important as the tubes that carry the water /or steam the soot blowers that keep the unit free of fly ash
The heat lost through floors is smaller than through walls or roofs However insulating the floor can improve comfort and the Energy Saving Trust estimates that it will save up to £75 a year on energy costs You can save more if you fill all the gaps between the floor and skirting board C ost s are in the region of £ 52 0 £1300 depending on the size of the room the material use d
