Ventilation has become a ‘big issue’ for Irish homes using spray foam insulation, an industry expert has warned.

A new report has suggested that up to 300,000 homes in the UK could be unsellable until the foam is removed after banks put restrictions on mortgages for properties where it’s used.Shay Lally of Houses to Restore believes there were many oversights when it came to the rollout of spray foam insulation, which began around 30 years ago.“When you look at insulation, you also have to look at ventilation and unfortunately with spray foam, it wasn’t considered.

“In your roof, all the timbers will begin to rot over time and decay – it will take many years, but that is the worry.”“If you look at even just standard fiberglass-type insulation, it would just get rolled out in your attic,” he said.
