Property Clinic: Advisory Column "(Reader)We recently removed the carpet from our dining room and had the original (1930's) oak flooring restored. The floor looks fantastic, but the room is much noisier...Are there any simple measures I can take to reduce the noise?"

"Sheep Wool Insulation is worth considering since it has a significantly higher lifespan than conventional insulation materials and is much safer; no toxic gases develop in the event of a fire and there is no irritation to eyes or skin, ever."

Construct Ireland

"One material that is rapidly gaining popularity as an insulator is sheep's wool, which can absorb up to 33 percent of its own weight in moisture without becoming damp to the touch. When absorbing this moisture, wool generates heat and thus helps to preserve the timber-construction of the roof, sub-floors and walls. It does this by minimising condensation without losing its superior thermal performance, which is ideal for the Irish climate."
