The two stocks lose heat differently. Pre-war homes have solid or early cavity walls, suspended timber floors and draughty sash windows, often rating E or worse. The estates have cavity walls that were frequently built empty, original 100mm attic insulation and leaky attic hatches, usually landing around C3 to D2.
Planning and conservation: Parts of Dundrum village sit within an Architectural Conservation Area, which can rule out external insulation on front elevations.
