What is Internal Wall Insulation?

What is Internal Wall Insulation?

Internal wall insulation (IWI) adds a thermal barrier to the inside of exterior-facing walls. This can involve fitting:

  • Insulation boards directly to walls, or
  • Timber stud walls filled with insulation material

Both methods improve thermal performance, reduce draughts, and protect your home from heat loss. Internal insulation is particularly useful in urban or listed buildings where external insulation isn’t an option.

Government Grants for Internal Wall Insulation

Thanks to the UK’s push for improved home energy efficiency, government grants for internal wall insulation are widely available in 2025. Two main schemes are:

  • ECO4 Scheme: Focuses on helping low-income and fuel-poor households.
  • Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS): Targets homes with poor EPC ratings (D to G) or those in lower Council Tax bands.

These grants often cover up to 100% of insulation costs, making it a smart and affordable solution for energy savings.
