Many properties in Dublin and the surrounding areas are now equipped with external insulation, a smart choice for energy efficiency and comfort. However, if your home was insulated before you arranged for fibre broadband service, you may find that installing a new fibre cable on an insulated wall can be quite a challenge.
If you're trying to get fibre broadband from providers like Eir, Vodafone, Virgin Media, or Sky, you may have already encountered this issue. The installation technicians from KN Circet, who often handle these installations, might inform you that they can't securely attach the cable to the insulated wall. This can be frustrating, especially if you're eager to upgrade to high-speed fibre internet.
The Solution: Secure Fibre Installation on Insulated Walls
At SOHO Networks, we understand this challenge and have developed a practical solution. We recently completed an installation where we used a round pipe to create a secure route for the fibre cable on an externally insulated wall. This method allows the cable to be installed without compromising the integrity of your insulation or the security of the cable.
Here's how it works:
Step 1:Â We install a round pipe on the insulated wall, which acts as a conduit for the fibre cable.
Step 2:Â The fibre cable is fed through the pipe, providing a protected pathway from the exterior of your home to the interior connection point.
Step 3: The cable is left ready for the KN Circet technician to splice and connect to your chosen provider—whether it's Eir, Vodafone, Virgin Media, or Sky.
This may seem like a small job, but it's an effective and future-proof way to ensure your home is ready for the latest fibre broadband services without damaging your external insulation.
