  • A video of showing me installing the insulation backed wallpaper.
    Very easy to use and trim to size. I have done a bit of wallpapering before but would never class myself as being an expert in the field, but from my limited experience this was a very easy product to use.
    Always read the manufacturers instructions as this product is only suitable in certain areas and is not flame retardant.
    But I have to say there was an instant improvement to the feel of the room and now its been up for a few days you can instantly tell the difference.
    About the product from the sellers website-
    Saarpor’s Graphite Insulating Lining paper is a brand new product that utilises the natural reflectivity of graphite to deliver an effective energy saving, thermal insulating and sound insulating wallcovering.
    Made from a 4mm thick layer of BASF expandable polystyrene, infused with graphite particles and laminated to a high quality non-woven lining paper, Graphite Insulating Lining Paper delivers 20% better insulation performance than standard insulating lining paper. This is equivalent to having an extra 26cm of concrete on your walls over and above an insulating lining paper.
    The special graphite particles act like thousands of mirrors reflecting thermal radiation back into the room and thus reducing heat loss and energy bills. Graphite Insulating Lining Paper is a Paste the Wall only product which makes it easy to hang and alongside it’s thermal properties, it is also very effective for covering damaged walls and plaster.
    Benefits of Graphite Insulating Lining Paper
    It can be painted or overhung with another paste-the-wall liner for perfect finish
    Provides a Moderate Level of Thermal Insulation
    Resists Damp and Mould Formation
    Covers Cracked, Damaged Plaster

    How has the installaiton been since you put this in? I have just bought a few rolls along with the glue, so thank you for the video. Did you go over with lining paper, just concerned about the joints being visible on the final finish. many thanks in advance.

      Thanks for the comment. Yes looks and feels alot better in that room now. I used a fine filler to go over the joints, then I hung a lining paper over the top again and caulked around the perimeter and it looks great..leave a bit of time between the insulated paper being hung and the lining paper, this will.give it time to dry and adhere to the wall properly.
      Hope this helps and good luck with the job. I think it was well worth doing..

    Id be tempted to pull the skirting board off and sit it back on top. How u know if mould wont come back tho.?

      Thanks for your comment. Yes possibly take the skirting off but you would not be gaining much just making a lot more work for yourself. The adhesive claims to have anti mould and fungal properties and the fact you are putting the insulation in place will help the transfer of the heat so rather then hot meeting a cold surface creating condensation the insulated paper should act as a buffer to stop condensation from forming..But ill update as the winter progresses. Ill also add the wall in the video was cleaned with mould cleaner first and allowed to dry before I installed the paper. Obviously you would not just go straight over the mould it needs getting rid of beforehand.
