Cavity Wall Insulation Assessors Scheme

 

The BBA Scheme for Assessors will help underpin the competence of the assessors who survey buildings prior to installation.

 

The Assessor must consider many factors and have sufficient knowledge to come to a sound decision, both on behalf of the installing company and the customer.

 

As with all cavity wall insulation, the construction and detailing should comply with the BBA publication Cavity Insulation of Masonry Walls - Dampness Risks and How to Minimise Them.

 

The purpose of the assessment is to determine if a property is suitable for cavity wall insulation.

 

When assessing whether any building can be insulated whether it be houses, bungalows, flats, offices or schools,  the golden rules are:

  • Assess critically

  • Be expert - know building practice (BS 5628 : part 3 : 2005)

  • Accept only properties that are suitable

  • Documents all facts and if in doubt, seek advice.
