Insulating a bathroom - waste pipes thermal bridge?
Post Body

I'm fitting some insulated plasterboard to the inside of the exterior walls of my bathroom, taking care with the joins with windows. But it strikes me that the waste pipes from the toilet and basin - which go out the wall and down the outside of the house - create two great big thermal bridges with the outside.

I've searched the web and not found anything addressing if there's anything worthwhile to be done about this. Lots of stuff on insulating pipes to avoid freezing but that's not a problem here. I'm doubtful that it's worth it from an energy efficiency pov.

Any advice/thoughts?
