The Ideal Way To Insulate Your Home
Insulation is an excellent way to keep your home warm and cosy throughout the winter months. That is why we have put together this list. It will guide you on some of the best ways to keep your home insulated this year.
Double Glazing And Triple Glazing
Double and tripled glazing can both help to reduce heat loss from your home. That could help you to save money on energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint. Double glazing installed with A+ rated glass units can also help to reduce noise and heat loss.
Furthermore, in a colder environment, then triple glazing may be more suitable. That is because triple glazing is slightly better at heat loss than double glazing.
Loft Insulation
A loft that is poorly insulated could be losing your heat from your house. Installing brand new loft insulation with 270mm thick laid over the loft floor can reduce your carbon footprint and reduce heat escaping from your roof.
Composite Doors
Replacing your old timber or uPVC door with a composite door can also help to reduce heat loss. Save money on energy bills by having a thermal efficient composite door installed onto your home. There are other benefits to composite doors. That is because these doors are a modern choice that comes in a range of colours.
Pipe And Tank Insulation
A thermal jacket will help keep the hot water stored in the tank warmer for longer. It is also worth spending the extra money and insulating all the hot water piping. That will further decrease heat loss and help you save money on your energy bills.
Cavity Wall Insulation
Cavity wall insulation can help fill out all the gaps between the two walls with an insulating material. Wall insulation can help cut heating bills by up to 15%. Furthermore, solid walls can be insulated too, on the outside and the inside.
Flooring Insulation
You can use wool insulation under wooden flooring and even carpet to help insulate the house. Plus, insulation under the flooring will not only help save you money on energy bills, but your floor will also be warm all year round.
