Interior insulation consists of placing an insulating material on the interior face of the walls of a building in order to reduce heat loss.

It must be admitted, this technique is less effective than exterior insulation. Furthermore, they are more difficult to implement, and have the effect of reducing the useful volume of isolated parts. Finally, it does not always make it possible to sufficiently reduce the impact of the constructive nodes encountered.

To this extent, a study of the feasibility of this system is still strongly recommended. This study will notably make it possible to assess the numerous hygrothermal (condensation, mold, etc.) and mechanical risks likely to be generated by this operation.

Despite these disadvantages, interior insulation is sometimes used in renovation, when no other choice is possible. This case can arise in particular when the facade offers heritage value, or when urban planning constraints are present.
