Recyclable Eco Friendly Insulation

Here at Irih Log Cabins we use Earthwool insulation – the “new generation” of glass wool – Manufactured from recycled materials. All our fully built cabins are built with external wall insulation that has double cavity walls, designed specifically to last a lifetime in the Irish climate . Our exterior walls come with a damp proof membrane, additional cavity for ventilation and exterior cladding facade that will secure your new home from heat loss, damp and wind for many generations to come.

Exterior Cladding available in pressure treated timber cladding as standard, Log style tongue and groove kiln dried cladding or sand and cement plastered finish depending on client requirements or planning authorities spec.

Environment

Because log cabins are built from wood or logs, they are more 'greener' or environmentally friendly than their brick built counterparts. This is because a timber home uses more natural resources than brick and concrete homes.

Carbon footprint

They also use less energy to manufacture than other types of building materials.

Our Log cabins are highly energy efficient. Our Fully Built cabins with standard Exterior Cavity Wall system specification gives you approx. B3 Ber rating. Since the requirement of heating are alot less, compared with a conventional irish building, Alot less energy is needed in providing a heatsource for your new space lowering your carbon footprint! There is less impact on the enviroment as a result.

every little helps...

Our cabins, With addition to exuding a warm sort of earthiness with their appearance, also have another bonus "Wood itself provides natural insulation".

Warmth...

If your Irish you`ve been in a house with no heat on, or even that rental house with the drafts and dodgy insulation, cold parts you just cant seem to warm!

Have you ever touched that concrete wall? its cold, then touched the wooded surface its alot warmer?
Now, with heat on the wood surface it gets warmer it doesnt absorb the energy, soak it up for hours and stay relativly cold. Cant picture that?
You`ve stepped on that concrete or tile floor in your bare feet... enough said
This is the same warm effect all over the inside of your Log cabin!

Maybe NOW you can picture a warm comfartable space.

Also worth mentioning our Cabins workout alot cheaper than RENT.

Our Log cabins are highly energy efficient. Our Fully Built cabins with The standard Exterior Cavity Wall system specification fitted gives you approx. B3 Ber rating.

Sustainable

Wood as you know is a sustainable and renewable raw material.

We support ecological and responsible timber manufacturing. New wood also has the added advantage of smelling nice as well.

... Overall, if you're considering building a home that has less environmental impacts, is more sustainable, and can be a healthy home to live in, a log home may be right for you!

Damp Proof Breathable Membrane

• All our fully Built cabins are protected with damp proof membrane fully covering the structure and insulation externally all around, this technology keep the moisture away.
• Breathable membranes are water resistant but vapour permeable. Typically they are used within external wall and roof constructions where the external cladding is used. Function; A breathable membrane is positioned on the outer side of the insulation, allowing vapour to escape from inside (preventing sweat, leading to damp or mould) while repelling any water that tries to enter.
