Attic Insulation - Rockwool RockPrime
Rockwool RockPrime Blown Loft insulation is a high-performance Rockwool granulate that offers quicker installation than roll and causes minimum disturbance. It meets and surpasses today's thermal regulations for both new build and existing attic spaces. Installation is quicker and cleaner than conventional roll insulation; the average semi-detached can be insulated in about one hour.

Design and Insulation
At EcoWarm Insulations we have invested significantly in the most up-to-date machinery, which means the installation of Rockwool RockPrime is extremely fast, efficient and clean.
All the equipment and insulation arrives in a truck specifically designed for the job. Only a hose will pass through your home. A two-man team installs the insulation. Firstly, they will insulate all water tanks and pipes, put in place measuring gauges and mark out where all electrical cables are located; then one technician will stay in the truck to load the insulation into the hopper of the blowing machine, while the other will be in the attic directing the flow until the insulation is filled to the required depth. The main benefit of RockWool Rock Prime over conventional roll-out insulation is that it will fill every void there is in the old insulation: there are no joints through which heat can escape. And as the depth gauges allow you to clearly see the depth achieved, you can be sure you get exactly what you pay for.
No Damage
Rockwool RockPrime will not damage any metal components in the loft nor react with PVC cables.
Fire Classification
Due to Rockwool RockPrime's non-combustible properties, the insulation can be installed up to and around the chimney breast. Rockwool RockPrime loft insulation achieves an A1 classification in accordance with BS EN13501-1, and is therefore noncombustible as defined by UK and Ireland building regulations.
Acoustic Performance
Rockwool RockPrime can improve the sound insulation of a building substantially. 250mm of Rockwool RockPrime loft insulation with an isolated 12.5mm plaster slab results in a reduction of >50dB in airborne sound being achieved.
Durability
Rockwool RockPrime is a durable material. When installed, it will not be affected by normal ventilation within the attic space. It will remain an effective insulant for the lifetime of the building.

- Pipes and tanks are insulated first. The walkway to the tank is installed and all main cables are labelled. The attic hatch is then insulated. At this point the attic itself is ready for insulation.
- Insulation is filled to the required level. All the equipment and insulation arrives in a truck specifically designed for the job. Only a hose will pass through your home. One technician will stay in the truck to load the insulation into the hopper of the blowing machine; the other will be in the attic directing the flow until the insulation is filled to the required depth.
