    Anyone had any experience of Aerotherm in Ireland?

    https://www.aerotherm.co.com/installation

    It's a 1mm insulating paste that goes on walls. We've no room for traditional insulation (plus I don't want to destroy original covings etc) so this sounds idea, but wondering is it any good.

    The website is terrible. And there isnt a product on earth where 1mm on insulation can be called insulation, unless its insulation tape electrical tape. Sure youd use that on a Hurl

    Watched their video apparently it provides a reflective radiant barrier to stop radiant heat loss. Radiant barriers to do work as long as the reflective area isn't covered up, they then state that you can then paint or wall paper over this barrier smacks of snake oil to me. I would avoid it unless you want to a very expensive layer of plaster on your walls.

    Yeah, having did a bit more research it does seem pointless. Now if I could get someone to install aerogel boards for me....
