The correct installation of SWI is vital, to not
only deliver a robust system that performs
correctly and looks attractive, but to
ensure the validation of warrantees. Spot
checks on-site are becoming ever more
stringent so it is vital that installers possess
the relevant certifications and approvals
to demonstrate they are adept in the
necessary skills to work on SWI projects.
One of the more popular guarantee
providers, the Solid Wall Insulation
Guarantee Agency (SWIGA), stipulates
that one in four installers on site must be
manufacturer approved. It is therefore
crucial that contractor and installation
companies invest in providing their
workforces with the required training to
ensure they not only avoid hefty fines, but
can continue to compete for valuable
contracts.
