Home Insulation

Reduce your Initial Energy Demand and make Your Home More Comfortable with Home Insulation

Home Insulation

Insulating your home can be a very simple and cost-effective way to make your home warmer and reduce your energy usage and in turn your energy bills.

Heat loss is a measure of the total transfer of heat through the fabric of a building from inside to the outside, either from conduction, convection, radiation, or any combination of these. By insulating your home you can reduce the amount of heat lost, making your home warmer.

Home Insulation

All homes are built differently so finding the right and appropriate insulation for you and your home is paramount.

External Wall Insulation.

External Wall Insulation (EWI) is also known as Solid Wall Insulation (SWI) is applied to the outside of your home. It is a four layer system fixed to the walls with self tapping screws. External Wall Insulation can significantly reduce your energy bills and make your home warmer. On average 35% of heat loss from a property is through the walls. Solid wall insulation can reduce the loss by up to 80%.

Room in Roof Insulation, and Loft Insulation

It is thought a quarter of heat is lost through the roof of an uninsulated home. Placing insulation in your loft is an effective way to reduce heat loss and reduce heating bills. Loft insulation should pay for itself many times over in its 40 year lifetime.

Internal Wall Insulation

There are two different ways to fit internal wall insulation, either by fitting rigid insulation boards to the wall or by building a stud wall filled with insulation material, such as, mineral wool fibre.

Floor Insulation

Insulating the ground floor and floors above open space is a great way to keep your property warmer. Most modern homes have insulated floor, but most older properties don’t. If you have suspended timber floors it is a good idea to look at the possibilities of floor insulation.
