Who's building houses with walls 4 inches thick? You have at least two layers of that, with a cavity in between.


view as:

Two layers of 4 inch brick with a cavity would be roughly comparable to a normal wood studded wall with drywall on the inside, empty cavity, then a layer of sheathing followed by a layer of siding. In other words, awful. I would hope that in the brick cavity there is some proper insulation.
