Reverse Brick Veneer

Reverse Brick Veneer

Reverse Brick Veneer is a thermally dynamic form of construction. It has the advantages of the aesthetics of a framed home and improved thermal efficiency over double brick.

The mass of the brickwork moderates the internal temperature while the external lining provides the waterproofing to the home. Insulation between the external wall and the brickwork, and the ability of the lining not to store heat, ensures the internal brickwork does not have the external heat or cold transmitted internally.

This allows the mass brickwork to better moderate internal temperatures without the impacts of the external weather conditions.
