Dún Laoghaire · The area
Why retrofitting and insulation in Dún Laoghaire are a familiar brief.
Dún Laoghaire's Victorian and Edwardian period stock carries solid 9-inch brick construction with original or replacement sash glazing, and the retrofit constraint is the ACA and protected-structure context: external wall insulation is almost never possible on the front elevations given conservation rules, and often constrained on side and rear elevations too. The move is internal wall insulation on external walls (carefully detailed to manage condensation risk at the wall-floor junction), attic-insulation top-up, airtightness detailing, and where possible floor insulation pulled in from below. Coastal exposure raises airtightness impact above the inland equivalent. Heat-recovery ventilation features in larger projects where ductwork can be coordinated. Modern apartments and townhouses by the East Pier carry standard cavity construction and simpler retrofit scope.
