Energy Efficient Building Solutions: ISO THERM, ThermalDry & Retrofit Products
Improving the energy efficiency of older buildings is becoming increasingly important for homeowners, landlords and building professionals. Whether the aim is to reduce heat loss, improve comfort or tackle existing building problems, choosing the right products can make a real difference.
At Twistfix, we supply specialist products to support a range of building improvement projects, including internal wall insulation, damp management and insulation fixings.
Improving energy efficiency in older homes
Older properties can be more difficult to insulate effectively, particularly where solid walls, limited insulation or existing damp problems are present. Finding the right solution depends on the construction of the building and the improvements needed.
Internal wall insulation can be a practical option where external insulation isn't suitable or possible. It can help reduce heat loss through walls while making it easier to retain the original appearance of a property's exterior.
ISO THERM Internal Wall Insulation
For projects where space is limited, ISO THERM thin internal wall insulation offers a slimline alternative to thicker insulation systems. Its low profile design can help improve wall insulation while minimising the amount of internal space lost.
It's an option worth considering when renovating older properties, particularly where maintaining as much usable floor space as possible is important.

ThermalDry and damp management
Damp is a common concern in older buildings and should be properly assessed before insulation or other renovation work begins. Simply covering a damp wall can leave the underlying problem unresolved, potentially leading to further issues.
ThermalDry is part of the Twistfix range of products for building improvement and remedial work. When planning a renovation, it's important to consider how moisture is affecting the existing walls and choose a suitable solution for the property.
Every building is different, so the best approach will depend on the cause of the damp, the type of wall and the work being carried out. Addressing moisture problems alongside other improvements can help ensure that renovation work is suitable for the building in the long term.
Choosing the right insulation fixings
Installing insulation involves more than choosing the insulation material itself. The fixings also need to be suitable for the wall or roof construction and the insulation system being used.
Twistfix supplies specialist insulation fixings for different applications, helping installers secure insulation materials in line with the relevant product specifications.
Choosing the right fixing depends on factors such as the substrate, insulation thickness and installation requirements. Getting these details right helps ensure the system is installed correctly.

Getting more from your renovation project
When improving an older property, it's worth looking at the building as a whole rather than focusing on insulation alone. Heat loss, ventilation, damp and the condition of the existing walls can all affect the results.
Taking the time to assess the property before starting work can help identify potential problems and ensure the products selected are suitable for the job.
Whether you're working on a single home or a larger refurbishment project, choosing appropriate materials and following the manufacturer's installation guidance are important steps towards achieving a lasting result.
