Hi,
Just wondering if anybody has dealt with degraded wool insulation in their home? We have a 30 year old house which appears to have been insulated with rockwool insulation on Day 1. From what I can see, some of the wool has dropped down in the cavity walls over time meaning parts of the house don't have proper insulation. It is 32 years since the house was built so I suppose some kind of decrease in quality was to be expected.
My understanding is that I can't pump the walls with beads due to the wool. Drywalling is one option we are considering but I am not convinced that solves the problem. I know external insulation is an option but that is a very expensive solution.
Just wondering if anyone has dealt with this issue in the past and would be able to provide some advice?
Thanks.
